Who we are

You can find FudgeMyLife at https://fudgemylife.org. It’s a blog where I (Rose) write blog posts on what to get people as nice gifts. These gift guides as filled with examples of products to illustrate the gift ideas provided. This website is aimed at people who are looking for fun and original gift ideas and want to find some inspiration on what to get someone as a present.

FudgeMyLife.org is a personal blog written and edited by myself, Rose Wismans. This disclaimer is here to inform you of the way it uses information and data it collects. It’s also here to inform you about the way it generates revenue.

The different ways in which my blog generates revenue is by using affiliates links in blog posts (always accompanied by a disclaimer to let you know that they are affiliate links) as well as advertising, sponsorships and other ways of compensation. These forms of compensation do not sway my opinion in any way. The opinions and ideas expressed are my own and not influenced by the possible financial gain from the different forms of compensation.

These ways of making money from this blog help compensate me for the time and energy I spent on writing and researching as well as marketing for this blog.
