This can be verified by looking at Amazon's agreement with its associates, which is publicly accessible here:

Specifically, under item 4, Referral Fees, see the following at the beginning of the 5th paragraph:



Since one can't (according to Amazon's legal agreement with affiliates) get any rebates/cashback/miles/points, I instead continue to support a charitable organization (KCSM, a public radio/TV station) by clicking through the Amazon link on their website. KCSM gets about 8% of everything I purchase. I recommend that you find a charity you want to support that has an Amazon link on its website!

I'm sure there will be doubters (to put it kindly) who will disbelieve me and argue with me , but it is what it is.
