Identity, official destinations, capabilities, geography, material limitations, material connections, source evidence, and review dates.

Risk clarity

Category-specific risk notices appear beside educational and comparison information—not after a commercial action.

Permanent independence

All external resource links are direct and uncompensated. Relevant material connections are disclosed without creating a paid destination.

Neutral discovery

Search and directory ordering cannot use compensation, sponsorship, referral economics, conversion potential, merchandise interests, or sales performance.
