TechPowerUp endeavors to be an independent and dependable source of fast, concise, and richly detailed reviews and news on PC hardware and gaming. We rely on revenue from web-advertising to stay free and pay our bills. We understand exactly how you feel when you're bombarded with excessive ad frames, autoplaying videos, take-overs, image-overs, and other web-advertising techniques prevalent these days. We promise to spare you such ads. Even when we do wrap-around take-overs, they're done in a static, and non-invasive way so as to never interrupt your reading experience. Over the past few months, we have been toying with sponsored news posts.
The sponsored news post campaigns we've run so far include online retailers selling discounted software and game keys. These software/games are recognizable brands (eg: Windows 10, Office 2016, AAA games, in-game credit, etc.). Some of our readers have raised questions on the business model of these retailers, and our decision to market them. We have tested these sites ourselves, and don't find their merchandise constitutes piracy. We are yet to see convincing evidence to the contrary. With our sponsored news posts' comments sections being hit by the same feedback, we decided to close the comments section of sponsored news posts, which led to feedback threads mushrooming in our forums.
@GlacierNine provided us with a beautiful template on how to approach our readers.
We welcome feedback on our choices of sponsor, and we encourage you to do any of the following:

We welcome feedback on our choices of sponsor, and we encourage you to do any of the following:
- If you find that the company we marketed didn't give you what you paid for, let us know so we can publicly shame companies that don't deliver. We really want to know - we are not trying to support scammers
- If you'd rather we didn't do sponsored content, or did less sponsored content, consider supporting the TPU Patreon, which directly funds us and allows us to be more independent, and bring you more content, free of any concern over our relationships with advertisers or manufacturers
- If you have any questions or queries about how we choose our sponsored content, we encourage you to post your comments below. We take all feedback seriously, and we ask that you make your feedback effective by keeping it clean, constructive, sans-rhetoric, and without ad hominem
