Editorial Policy

AK Vape News publishes Alaska-focused news, explainers, and commentary for adults 21+. We separate editorial coverage from advertising and label display advertising clearly.

We avoid medical, cessation, legal, tax, regulatory, reduced-risk, safe, light, low, or mild claims unless the wording is directly supported by an official source and reviewed before publication. Product coverage focuses on verifiable facts such as format, published specifications, regulatory status, retailer disclosures, and adult-use context.

Some contributor bylines may be disclosed editorial pen names used by the AK Vape News desk until verified staff biographies are ready. Corrections and source updates can be sent to newsroom@akvapenews.com.

Google Publisher And AdSense Standards

AK Vape News covers adult-only restricted topics including nicotine, tobacco, vaping, and cannabis policy. Coverage must remain editorial, source-dated, adult-focused, and non-sales-oriented. We do not publish buy buttons, purchase-incentive codes, ad-click encouragement, youth-appealing promotions, illegal-use instructions, health claims, or misleading authorization claims. See our Publisher Standards for the sitewide checklist.

No Product Sales Or Affiliate Sales

AK Vape News is an adult-only informational publication. We do not sell vape products, tobacco products, nicotine products, cannabis products, devices, coils, batteries, accessories, retail leads, checkout links, or buyer lists. We do not run affiliate-style links, product commissions, paid rankings, or pay-to-win product placements.

The site is intended to stay free for adult readers by using display advertising and similar programmatic ad placements, including Google or other ad networks when accepted. Those ads are separate from editorial coverage. AKVN’s editorial purpose is to report on Alaska vaping, tobacco, cannabis-adjacent policy, public hearings, safety issues, pricing observations, consumer rights, retailer compliance, and quit/addiction resources.

Coverage may mention products, manufacturers, shops, public menus, or public prices when they are relevant to news, policy, safety, or market reporting. Those mentions are not offers to sell, endorsements, medical claims, cessation claims, or instructions to buy or use any product.
