Welcome to Yujin Izakaya! We are thrilled to share our passion for authentic Japanese recipes with you. Before we get started with all the delicious food content, we’d like to ensure that you understand how our site works, especially when it comes to how we earn revenue. This Disclosure Policy covers affiliate links, sponsored content, and other partnerships that support our website and help us continue to bring you tasty and informative content. Our goal is to be transparent, so you always know how we operate and feel confident in the content we share.
Affiliate Links & Sponsored Content
We believe in keeping things clear and transparent, which is why we want to explain how affiliate links and sponsored posts work on our site. Some of the links you find on Yujin Izakaya may be affiliate links. These are special links that track the purchases you make through them. When you click on an affiliate link and make a purchase, we earn a small commission. The best part? You don’t pay any extra for the products you buy. Affiliate links help us cover the costs of running the website, including recipe development, website hosting, and content creation.
If you ever come across a sponsored post, rest assured that we’ll clearly mark it as such. These posts are part of our collaboration with brands, but they are only with companies that share our values and products we personally believe in. We never post content just to make money, if we partner with a brand, it’s because we think their products are useful and align with the quality of content we strive for.
What Are Affiliate Links?
Affiliate links are links to products or services that we recommend. These links are provided by third-party companies and track any purchases you make through them. When you click on one of these links and purchase something, we earn a small commission, at no extra cost to you. This is how affiliate marketing works, and it’s one of the ways we can maintain the site while keeping it free for you to browse.
We choose to promote products that we know will enhance your cooking experience. Whether it’s a brand of miso paste we love, a special Japanese knife we recommend, or a kitchen gadget that makes prep easier, we’re only suggesting items that we have either used ourselves or believe will make your cooking adventures even better. Our affiliate relationships allow us to continue creating content and recipes you enjoy, while supporting the growth of Yujin Izakaya.
Why Do We Use Affiliate Links?
The reason we use affiliate links is simple: they allow us to keep Yujin Izakaya running smoothly. Our team works hard to create content that helps you cook delicious Japanese dishes. From developing recipes to writing posts, testing ingredients, and improving the website, it all takes time and resources. Affiliate links are one of the ways we generate revenue that helps us cover the costs of running the website. Without them, it would be challenging to keep providing you with the same high-quality content.
It’s important to note that we only use affiliate links for products that we have personally tested or researched thoroughly. We are never influenced by affiliate revenue when recommending products. Your trust is our priority, and we want you to feel confident in every recipe and product recommendation we make.
Sponsored Posts and Collaborations
Occasionally, we may work with brands for sponsored posts. These are posts where a company compensates us to talk about their product or service. If you see a sponsored post on our website, we will always disclose it clearly by labeling it as a "sponsored post" or similar wording. Our main goal is to ensure that these collaborations align with our values and provide real value to our readers.
We only work with brands that we genuinely believe in. Whether it’s a Japanese food supplier, a kitchen tool company, or another product relevant to our audience, we take great care in selecting the right partners. If we’ve written a sponsored post, it’s because we think it will help you in your cooking journey. These partnerships help us fund more content, improve the website, and share even more delicious recipes and tips with you.
Our Relationship With Brands
At Yujin Izakaya, we take pride in our integrity and transparency. When we work with brands, we choose partners who share our love for authentic Japanese food and who align with our commitment to quality. Every brand we partner with is someone we’ve either used personally or vetted thoroughly. We believe in supporting businesses that care about the same things we do, quality ingredients, reliable kitchen tools, and products that make cooking easier and more enjoyable.
If we recommend a product, rest assured it’s because we believe in it. We would never suggest anything to our readers just to make a sale. We’re passionate about helping you create great meals at home, and that’s always the bottom line when it comes to our brand partnerships.
Transparency & Trust
Transparency is at the heart of everything we do. We want you to know exactly how we earn revenue through affiliate links and sponsored posts. We’re committed to maintaining your trust by being open about our relationships with brands and how we generate income. Our promise to you is that we will always be upfront about affiliate links or any sponsored content. Your experience on our website matters to us, and we don’t want you to feel misled in any way.
As we continue to grow and develop content, we will always keep your trust in mind. We aim to keep things honest and transparent, so you can enjoy the content on Yujin Izakaya without any worries.
Third-Party Links
Sometimes, our posts may include links to third-party websites for resources, products, or other helpful content. These links are not controlled by us, and we cannot be responsible for the content, privacy policies, or practices of those sites. If you choose to visit a third-party site via one of our links, we encourage you to review their privacy policies and terms of service to understand how they collect and use data.
While we carefully select the third-party links we share, we want you to be aware that they operate under their own guidelines and standards. Your use of any third-party websites is at your own risk, and we cannot guarantee their practices.
