DISCLAIMER:

Just a little piece was made with our readers in mind. This Site is an opportunity to share and enjoy our potential common interests: food and enjoying life.  Our readers can rest assured that we don’t intend on overloading our Site with tons of ads; however, blogging costs money and making back some of the money we have invested blog is what keeps it alive and lets us continue share our passion for food and living. It is our policy to try our best to keep our ads as closely related to the Site’s content as possible.

1.  Advertisements and Affiliates. Our ads are mostly served by third-party companies, so we don’t always have control over their content; however, if a particular ad is offensive please contact us at justalittlepiece@gmail.com and we will do our best to have it removed. In addition to ads, we may also run affiliate links; if you click on an affiliate link and make a purchase we may get a small percentage of your purchase, or we may get a small amount of money per click. It is our policy to only promote products we believe in through affiliate links. 

2.  Promotions (Including Reviews and Giveaways). We occasionally discuss products or restaurant meals on Just a little piece; the main reason behind this is if we find something we are excited to try or have, we want to share it with our readers! It is our policy to only review products we’ve personally tried or meals we’ve personally eaten. Sometimes a product is provided to us for free and sometimes we pay for it; if it was provided for free, this is always stated in the post. Whether or not the product was free does not influence our opinion of it, as it is our policy to share our honest opinion, including the good as well as the bad, as applicable. (Please note that acceptance of a free product does not guarantee a review; we reserve the right not to discuss a product on the Site, especially if we try a product and find that we don’t like it at all.) We also occasionally run giveaways on  just a little piece; it is our policy to only state our opinion of the product/service being given away if we have personally tried it. It is always free to enter our giveaways, and items being given away are always free to the winner. 

3.  Sponsored Posts. We occasionally feature sponsored posts on just a little piece; if a post is sponsored, this will always be stated in the post. It is our policy to only feature sponsored posts that we believe in, and are in alignment with our blog.
