Privacy Policy & Disclosures

Last updated: April 2026

Affiliate Link Disclosure

Some links on this site are affiliate links. This means that if you click a link and make a purchase, The Iron Clinic may earn a small commission at no additional cost to you. All affiliate links on this site use the go.ironclinicgym.com redirect domain so they are easy to identify.

Affiliate relationships do not influence editorial decisions. Products are reviewed based on real testing — affiliate deals are arranged after the review is written, not before. The Iron Clinic will not recommend a product it would not buy with its own money.

What Data We Collect

The Iron Clinic does not collect, store, or sell personal information about visitors. This site has no login system, no user accounts, and no tracking cookies beyond what is described below.

Google Search Console

This site uses Google Search Console to monitor how the site appears in Google Search results (impressions, click-through rate, indexing status). Search Console does not give The Iron Clinic access to data about individual visitors — it shows aggregate search performance only.

Email Newsletter

If you sign up for the Iron Clinic Report newsletter via the form on this site, your email address is collected through Elfsight and stored in Mailchimp for the purpose of sending you the newsletter. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link included in every email. The Iron Clinic does not share or sell subscriber email addresses.

Third-Party Embeds

Review pages on this site embed YouTube videos. YouTube may set its own cookies when you play a video. This is subject to Google's Privacy Policy. The Iron Clinic does not control YouTube's data practices.

Cookies

This site uses one first-party cookie / localStorage value to remember your preferred color theme (dark or light mode). No cross-site tracking cookies are set by this site.

Sponsored Content & Review Units

All reviews on The Iron Clinic represent BJ Nelson's honest, independent opinion. Approximately 95% of products reviewed are provided by brands at no cost for testing purposes. Occasionally, products are purchased independently. In all cases, whether a product was received for free or purchased is disclosed in the review article and in the opening of every associated YouTube video.

The Iron Clinic also produces paid sponsored content. Sponsored pieces are always disclosed explicitly at the start of the content. Paid sponsorships are separate from reviews — a brand paying for a sponsored video does not receive a review, and payment does not influence the editorial position of any review on this site. Brands that have attempted to place conditions on editorial outcomes have been declined.

Affiliate commissions (see above) are arranged independently of review outcomes. The Iron Clinic will not recommend a product it would not stand behind.

External Links

This site contains links to external websites. The Iron Clinic is not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those sites.

Children's Privacy

This site is not directed at children under 13. The Iron Clinic does not knowingly collect information from children.

This policy may be updated from time to time. The "last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision.
