Hidden Corners / The publication

Images, AI and affiliate links

Understand what you are looking at—and what a link supports.

Real photographs

Revised guides use licensed documentary photographs where suitable. Captions and image credits identify the source and required attribution. A photograph records a moment; its date matters, particularly when routes or site conditions have changed. The presence of a person in a photo does not imply their endorsement of this publication or a booking service.

AI illustrations and writing assistance

AI tools may assist research, drafting, code and illustration preparation. Packing and outfit illustrations are labelled as AI-generated. They explain categories and styling ideas; they are not documentary portraits, product endorsements or evidence of current conditions. Older guides may also contain labelled AI destination illustrations.

Viator links

Some experience links are affiliate links. Hidden Corners may earn a commission if you make a qualifying booking through them, at no extra cost to you. The disclosure appears near the link. A marketplace link is not an official admission office or a personal review of every listed tour.

Accommodation and books

The Booking.com resource links in the current revised guides are ordinary links with no affiliate tracking. Book links lead to publisher or distributor information and ordinary Amazon title searches. They do not currently earn a commission. Where a recommendation is based on publisher descriptions rather than a full reading, we say so.

Advertising

No Google AdSense advertising integration is active in this release. Approval and revenue are not assumed. Before enabling advertising, we will review placement, update privacy information and implement the consent controls required for the audience and service.
