How to Add Disclaimer Page in Blogger

 No disclaimer = legal risk + AdSense ban. Amazon shuts accounts without FTC disclosure.

In this tutorial, you'll add a disclaimer page to Blogger in 2025. Follow along and you'll comply with AdSense, Amazon, and FTC rules.

Step 1: Why Every Blogger Needs Disclaimer Page

Disclaimer protects you if readers lose money or get hurt following your advice.

1. AdSense rule: Google requires Disclaimer + Privacy Policy for approval
2. Affiliate rule: Amazon Associates, FTC law = must disclose affiliate links
3. Legal protection: "Not financial advice" saves you from lawsuits
4. Trust: Readers trust blogs that are transparent

Step 4: Add Disclaimer to Footer + Menu

Disclaimer must be easy to find or it doesn't protect you.

1. Layout → Footer section → Add Gadget → Pages → Check "Disclaimer" → Save
2. Layout → Top menu Pages gadget → Edit → Check "Disclaimer" → Save
3. Where to link: Footer, menu, and below affiliate links in posts

Step 5: FTC Affiliate Link Disclosure Rules 2025

Where	What to Write	Placement
Blog post with links	"This post contains affiliate links. We may earn a commission if you buy."	Top of post, before first link
YouTube video	"Links in description are affiliate links."	Spoken in video + description
Social media	#ad or #sponsored or #affiliate	Start of caption
Disclaimer page	Full affiliate disclosure text	Footer link sitewide

Bad practice to avoid: Hiding disclosure at bottom in 8px font. FTC fines $50,000 for hidden disclosures. Must be clear and visible.

Important: Disclaimer is not legal advice. For finance/health niches, hire a lawyer. Update date yearly. Amazon checks disclaimer page during account review. No disclaimer = instant ban.
