Editorial Independence
What the platform enforces
SoftwareGlimpse is built so affiliate metadata is excluded from Finder/recommendation scoring snapshots, and editorial scoring does not treat commission as a criterion. Promotions resolve into labeled CTAs and do not rewrite recommendation ranking. These invariants are covered by automated tests and editorial QA checks for affiliate bias.
What commercial priorities may influence
Commercial priorities may influence which topics or products we research first. That is about coverage sequencing, not bought rankings. Editorial conclusions remain separate from affiliate economics.
Sponsored rankings
Vendors cannot buy editorial ranking positions. If sponsored placements are ever offered, they would be labeled and would not replace methodology-based scores or Best-page order. Sponsored programmes are not currently offered as a live product.
