Data, AI, advertising, and affiliation disclosures

Market data

AOTradeCraft uses public Albion Online market data sources, primarily the Albion Online Data Project, and stores cached copies to reduce upstream request load. Data may be delayed, incomplete, stale, or unavailable.

AI-assisted development disclosure

AI tools were used during development as an assistant for planning, code scaffolding, debugging, copy review, UI iteration, and documentation drafts. The AOTradeCraft maintainer remains responsible for reviewing code, testing behavior, securing deployment, deciding what ships, and correcting issues. AI-generated suggestions should not be treated as a warranty of correctness.

Supporter integration disclosure

AOTradeCraft can use Patreon OAuth/webhooks to verify supporter status and Discord OAuth/bot role sync to grant access to a supporter channel. These integrations are optional for visitors and are used to deliver ad-free browsing and community benefits.

Advertising and affiliate disclosure

AOTradeCraft may use Google AdSense or similar ad services in the future. If advertising is enabled, ads may be personalized or contextual depending on site configuration, user consent requirements, and provider rules. Patreon or other support links may be shown as sponsorship/support links.

Albion Online affiliation

AOTradeCraft is not affiliated with Sandbox Interactive. Albion Online names, item names, and related game references belong to their respective rights holders and are used for compatibility and informational purposes.

Public beta limitations

The current build is still a public beta. Some recipe presets are verified from game data where available; others are starter presets and should be checked before expensive crafting decisions.
