This page explains how editorial decisions are made and what commercial relationships exist around them. It applies to every review and guide on the site.
Editorial independence
Reviews are written by us and are not reviewed, approved or altered by any brand before publication. We do not accept payment in exchange for a positive assessment, a rating, or placement in a roundup.
Commercial relationships
Some links earn us a commission. Commercial arrangements never determine which products we test, what we conclude, or how we order a list. Full detail is on the affiliate disclosure page.
Corrections
When we get something wrong, we fix it in the article and note what changed and when. If a correction affects a rating or a recommendation, that is stated explicitly rather than silently edited. Report an error via the contact page.
Updates
Reviews are revisited when a product is reformulated, when we receive credible reader feedback that conflicts with our findings, or when pricing shifts enough to change the value judgement. The review date shown on each article reflects the most recent substantive check.
Testing standards
What we test, how we buy it, and how we score it are set out in how we test. Who we are and how the site is funded is on the about page.
