| 5.

What does Amazon’s section 5 entail?
Amazon implemented this section because of the following bad practices that were performed in past years by bad actors:
- Browser plug-ins or extensions: Some affiliates created browser extensions or plug-ins that would automatically replace other affiliates’ links with their own when a shopper clicked on an Amazon product link. This allowed them to “steal” commissions from other affiliates by taking credit for sales they did not refer to.
Logie neither supports nor allows the use of any applications that automatically replace other affiliates’ links, ensuring fair credit for all sales referrals. - Adware or malware: Some affiliates used adware or malware to force users’ devices to load Amazon pages with their affiliate links embedded, even when users did not intend to visit those pages. This would lead to more commission for the unethical affiliates while creating negative user experiences.
Logie is completely free of malicious software that could force users to load Amazon pages with affiliate links involuntarily, preserving a positive user experience. - Spamming: Some affiliates would use plugins, extensions, or tools to automatically spam forums, social media platforms, or comment sections with their affiliate links, hoping to get unsuspecting users to click through and make a purchase. This annoyed internet users and went against Amazon’s guidelines about promoting products in a relevant and non-intrusive manner.
Logie prohibits spamming forums, social media platforms, or comment sections with affiliate links, adhering to Amazon’s guidelines of promoting products in a relevant and non-intrusive manner. - Cookie stuffing: Some affiliates would use “cookie stuffing” techniques, which involved placing an Amazon affiliate tracking cookie on a user’s device without their knowledge or consent when they visited a website. This would lead to commissions earned by the unscrupulous affiliates for purchases made by that user on Amazon, even if they did not click on their affiliate link or had no connection with the affiliate.
Logie does not use “cookie stuffing” techniques, protecting users from having Amazon affiliate tracking cookies unknowingly placed on their devices.
Amazon clearly states that section 5 doesn’t impact the software that you use to help you build or maintain your website, which is exactly what Logie does.
