1. About Affiliate Links
1stMiningRig (https://1stminingrig.com/) is an independent technology blog dedicated to graphics cards, computer hardware, BIOS recovery, troubleshooting, restoration, and technical experiments.
Some articles on this website contain affiliate links to products, retailers, or other third-party services.
An affiliate link is a special link that may allow us to earn a commission when a visitor makes a qualifying purchase or completes an eligible action.
Where an affiliate arrangement applies, this generally does not result in additional charges to the visitor.
2. Amazon Associates Disclosure
As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
1stMiningRig participates in the Amazon Associates affiliate program.
When you purchase an eligible product through one of our Amazon affiliate links, we may earn a commission.
Amazon affiliate links may appear in product reviews, hardware recommendations, tutorials, or other relevant articles.
Where appropriate, we also identify affiliate links or commercial relationships near the relevant content.
Participation in Amazon Associates does not mean that Amazon sponsors or endorses 1stMiningRig or its editorial content.
3. Editorial Independence
Our goal is to share useful technical information, practical experience, and honest observations about hardware and technology.
Affiliate relationships do not guarantee positive reviews or recommendations.
We aim to distinguish products we have personally tested from those discussed based on manufacturer specifications, research, or other available information.
We may recommend products because we consider them relevant or useful, regardless of whether an affiliate commission is available.
If content is sponsored or a product has been provided for review, we aim to clearly disclose that relationship in the relevant article.
4. Historical Articles and Older Affiliate Links
1stMiningRig has published hardware reviews, mining guides, and technical tutorials since 2016.
Many original articles remain available as part of our historical archive.
These articles may contain older affiliate links, product references, or shortened URLs created through services previously used by the website.
Some links may redirect to different regional storefronts, lead to discontinued products, or no longer support affiliate tracking.
We preserve historical content where possible and may gradually review or update outdated links without changing the original technical information.
5. Product Prices and Purchases
Product prices, specifications, availability, shipping options, and retailer policies may change without notice.
We encourage visitors to verify all relevant information directly with the retailer before making a purchase.
1stMiningRig does not currently sell products directly through its website.
Any purchase made through an external retailer is governed by that retailer’s terms, payment procedures, delivery policies, and applicable consumer protections.
6. Transparency and Questions
We believe readers should be able to distinguish independent editorial content from commercial recommendations.
Where required, affiliate relationships will also be disclosed near the relevant links or recommendations.
