How a vendor becomes scored

  1. Collect public evidence with source URLs and dates.
  2. Run the same rubric across every vendor.
  3. Send a right-of-reply request before publishing harsh findings.
  4. Publish the score, source links, review date, and change history.
  5. Update monthly or when credible corrections arrive.

What we will not do

We will not call a supplier fake, unsafe, illegal, or a scam without source evidence strong enough to publish. Missing evidence is scored as missing evidence. It is not inflated into a claim we cannot prove.
