Statement of Ethics

I don’t claim to be fully objective as a reporter because the majority of the content on this site is opinion based. I will never base my review on someone else’s or sugarcoat it. My mission is to give the truth and the whole truth on a product or service, and I do my best to fulfill that job.

We do occasionally receive products for free from companies for review but we never accept payment in return for a review and never sugarcoat reviews because we received a product for free or at a discount. In any such review with a discounted or free product we will indicate it within the article. We use these discounts only because we are on a low-budget and would not possibly be able to review all the products we do while paying full price.

I have no direct control over advertising. The advertising is managed by Google and while we can make an effort to prevent poor or unrelated advertising, ultimately the final control is in the hands of Google. Occasionally we place affiliate ads next to articles on products. These are marked by white boxes with a photo and blue link that are labelled “ad”.

No organization is perfect, but we try our best to offer the content that is most interesting, useful, and accurate for our readers. That is the one and only goal of this blog.
