Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: March 2026
As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases. This is a required disclosure under the Amazon Associates Program Operating Agreement.
What This Means
RetrofitSmartLock.com participates in the Amazon Associates Program and other affiliate advertising programs. When you click a link on this site and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission from the retailer — at absolutely no extra cost to you. The price you pay is identical whether you use our link or navigate to the retailer directly.
How Affiliate Revenue Supports Us
This site is completely free to use. The small commissions we earn from affiliate links allow the DU Tech Team to continue:
- Purchasing and physically testing smart locks (each lock costs $80–$300+)
- Maintaining and updating review content quarterly
- Developing free tools like our Lock Finder quiz
- Keeping the site ad-free and distraction-free
Our Editorial Independence
Affiliate relationships do not influence our rankings, recommendations, or editorial content. We have given negative reviews to highly profitable products and recommended products with lower commission rates simply because they were the best choice for our readers. Our testing methodology is documented on our editorial methodology and About page.
Other Affiliate Programs
In addition to Amazon, we may participate in affiliate programs with retailers including Best Buy, Home Depot, B&H Photo, and manufacturer direct programs. All affiliate relationships are governed by the same editorial independence policy described above.
Questions?
If you have any questions about our affiliate relationships or how we earn revenue, please contact us. We are committed to full transparency.
