How money works here

Affiliate links

Some vendor links may be affiliate links; we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. They are marked, use rel="sponsored", and the page says so at the top. Affiliate status never decides whether a product is listed or recommended.

Paid inclusion and sponsorship

A vendor can pay for a clearly labelled inclusion, table addition, section or sponsor acknowledgement. It cannot buy a verdict, a ranking, a matrix value or the removal of a competitor. Unpaid editorial content is never labelled sponsored.

Trial access

Vendors may offer trial accounts. We use them only to check documented facts, disclose them where relevant, and they never guarantee coverage.
