Editorial Policy
Last updated August 27, 2026
Our editorial decisions — what we cover, how we score it, and what we recommend — are made independently of any advertising or affiliate relationship.
What we will never do
- Accept payment in exchange for a positive review or higher score.
- Publish a fabricated review, test result, rating or testimonial.
- Claim hands-on testing for a product we haven't actually tested.
- Invent specifications, prices or availability data.
- Let an advertiser or affiliate partner see or influence a review before publication.
How we label evidence
Every review carries one of four labels — Hands-On Tested, Lab Tested, Researched, or Compared — describing exactly how we evaluated the product. SeeHow We Review for what each means.
Corrections
If we get something wrong, we fix it. See our Correction Policy.
