How Proximate separates editorial guidance from sponsorship, affiliate links, supplier relationships and paid placement.
Current site
The current editorial library contains no paid rankings, affiliate tracking links, sponsored articles or supplier lead-generation forms.
Future commercial relationships
If sponsorship, advertising, affiliate links or paid supplier profiles are introduced, they will be clearly labelled at the point of use. Payment must not determine factual conclusions, suppress material limitations or turn an editorial comparison into an undisclosed promotion.
Product and supplier references
A reference to a platform, standard or manufacturer is not an endorsement. Technical claims should be supported by documentation and, where performance matters, tested in the intended environment.
Conflicts and updates
Any material commercial relationship relevant to an article should be disclosed on that page. Historic content should be reviewed when a new relationship creates a reasonable perception of conflict.
Questions
Questions about disclosure should be submitted through the public editorial contact shown in the site footer once that mailbox has been activated.
