Category Method

Publication requires evidence

Candidate stage

Official identity and general category relevance may be confirmed while features, limitations, geography, terms, and operational risks remain under review.

Published stage

A completed profile requires a current source ledger, review date, geographic context, limitations, risk notices, and a visible material-connection disclosure when applicable.

Neutral ordering

Directories render alphabetically A–Z by default. Optional editorial sorting may use only approved noncommercial factors; compensation, referral economics, provider preference, merchandise interests, and sales performance never determine inclusion or position.
