This policy was last updated on November 21, 2023:
This Substack newsletter is a personal project written and edited by Kerri Sparling (aka me). This publication may accept paid topic insertions, but those posts will be noted at their outset as “SPONSORED.” Additionally, I will and do accept and keep free products, services, travel, event tickets, and other forms of compensation from companies and organizations, in addition to cash compensation as a result of a consulting arrangement.
This site abides by word of mouth marketing standards. I believe in honesty of relationship, opinion and identity. The compensation received may influence the advertising content, topics or posts made in this space. That content, advertising space or post will be clearly identified as paid or sponsored content.
The owner of this Substack newsletter is not compensated to provide opinion on products, services, websites and various other topics. The views and opinions expressed on this blog are purely mine. If I claim or appear to be an expert on a certain topic or product or service area, I will only endorse products or services that I believe, based on my expertise, are worthy of such endorsement. Any product claim, statistic, quote or other representation about a product or service should be verified with the manufacturer or provider.
SPONSORSHIP NOTES:
As of January 1, 2016, Tandem has entered into a compensation agreement with Kerri which includes compensation for consulting services, including speaking on Tandem’s behalf at diabetes-related events. When speaking on Tandem’s behalf at such events, Kerri’s relationship with Tandem will be disclosed to the audience. With a physician’s prescription, Tandem provided Kerri with products at no charge, including a loaner Tandem insulin pump and the cartridges and infusion sets needed to use the pump. Content on this site is that of the author, not Tandem Diabetes Care.
