• **Near content**: Short disclosure above/below affiliate sections
• **Standalone page**: Full disclosure at /disclosure

Content

• **Honest**: Explain relationship; no misleading claims
• **Concise**: One page; avoid excessive length
• **Update**: When model changes

Output Format

• **Headline** and summary
• **Full disclosure** copy
• **Placement** guidance (footer, in-content)
