Affiliate Disclosure

Last updated: 2026-07-23

Current status: this site does not yet contain any affiliate links. We are not currently enrolled in any affiliate program. The policy below describes how we will handle affiliate relationships once/if we do, in line with FTC guidance on endorsements and disclosures — we are publishing it in advance so our practices are transparent from day one.

What will change when affiliate links are added

If we join an affiliate program (for example, an ASP covering a Japanese retailer or marketplace), some outbound links on this site may become affiliate links. That means we may earn a small commission if you click through and make a purchase, at no extra cost to you.

How we will disclose it

• Any page containing affiliate links will carry a clear, plain-language disclosure near the top of the content, not just buried in a footer.
• We will not disguise affiliate links as something else, and we will not use cloaking to hide the affiliate relationship from readers.
• Product mentions will reflect our actual assessment of restock/lottery relevance, not which links happen to pay a commission.

Questions

If you're unsure whether a specific link is an affiliate link, contact us via the details on our About page and we'll tell you plainly.
