Publication standards
Sponsorship & Affiliate Disclosure
How we disclose sponsored placements, affiliate links, commissioned work, and brand relationships.
01
Material relationships
Some articles may include sponsored placements, affiliate links, commissioned work, or brands that provided product information. Relevant relationships should be disclosed in the article.
02
Editorial criteria
Commercial relationships do not remove the need for clear criteria, careful sourcing, and claim review. Readers should be able to understand why a product or brand is included.
Reader Note
Trust pages are maintained as part of the publication, not as decorative policy links.
