A note on affiliate links
Amazon links here use the country-aware tag set in Vercel (NEXT_PUBLIC_AMAZON_TAG_*), currently routing to United States. Direct programs (FlexOffers, Pepperjam, Awin, CJ) for the brand-specific networks still use placeholder URLs — those need separate approval per network and per brand.
