Our Commitment to Transparency
Planning Insights participates in affiliate marketing programmes. This means that some links on this site — to books, software, courses, and other products — are affiliate links. If you click one of these links and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you.
This disclosure is made in accordance with Ireland’s Consumer Protection Act 2007 (which transposes EU Directive 2005/29/EC on unfair commercial practices) and the guidance published by the Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (CCPC) and the Advertising Standards Authority for Ireland (ASAI) on disclosing affiliate and commercial content.
What This Means in Practice
Affiliate links are not paid placements. We only recommend products and services that we consider genuinely useful to people working in or navigating the Irish planning and construction system.
Our editorial independence is not for sale. A commission does not influence which products we recommend or how we review them. If a product isn’t worth your time, we won’t recommend it.
Commissions help keep this site free. Revenue from affiliate links helps us maintain and develop this site without charging readers.
