PickleFinder Disclosure

How PickleFinder handles advertising, sponsored placements, affiliate links, and editorial independence.

Summary

PickleFinder is built as a court directory first. The main goal is to help players find places to play. Monetization should never hide, distort, or replace useful court information.

Advertising

Some pages may contain display advertising or clearly labeled sponsored placements. Ads are separate from directory listings and guide content.

Affiliate Links

Some guide pages may eventually include affiliate links to pickleball equipment. If a reader buys through an affiliate link, PickleFinder may earn a commission at no extra cost to the reader.

Affiliate links should be used only where they fit the page naturally. The site should not recommend equipment only because it pays a commission.

Editorial Standard

Court pages should be based on directory data, official sources, map data, or reasonable user-submitted corrections. Gear pages should explain buying factors in plain language and avoid pretending to review products that have not been checked.

Corrections

If a court detail, link, ad placement, or recommendation looks wrong, contact PickleFinder so it can be reviewed.
