Affiliate Disclosure

Transparency is one of our operating principles. This page discloses the ways Black Door earns compensation from third-party relationships.

Partner commissions

Black Door is a member of partnership programs with certain technology vendors (for example, through Commission Junction or direct referral agreements with partners like Anthropic). When a client adopts a tool we have recommended through one of these programs, we may earn a commission. Commissions do not change the price you pay.

How it affects our recommendations

Commissions never determine which tools we recommend. We evaluate every tool on merit, security posture, compliance fit, and total cost of ownership, using the same security-first criteria we apply to every engagement. If a commissioned tool is the wrong fit, we will say so. We would rather lose a referral than recommend the wrong solution.

Current partnerships

We will maintain a current list of partner programs in the forthcoming expanded disclosure. Full disclosure is in preparation.

Questions

The expanded affiliate disclosure is coming soon. For any questions in the interim, or to ask whether a specific recommendation was commissioned, email contact@blackdoorllc.com. We will answer directly.
