Publication policy

Affiliate disclosure

How referral compensation and commercial relationships will be disclosed.

Current status

No affiliate offer should be assumed approved merely because it appears in a planning record. Advertising and affiliate placements must be labeled and must not be presented as independent reporting.

If affiliate links are added

A clear disclosure will appear before or beside the first affiliate link in the article. The disclosure will state that the publisher may earn compensation if a reader takes an action, without implying that the price necessarily changes. Editorial conclusions will not be sold.

Reviews and recommendations

Recommendations must state the evaluation method, date, price-check context, material limitations, and any free access, gift, sponsorship, ownership, or referral relationship. Affiliate availability does not qualify a product for coverage.
