Editorial and commercial disclosure
Research sources are selected for their usefulness. This page explains our editorial independence and how commercial relationships are disclosed.
Editorial independence
Harkster Limited supports the operation and development of Directory. Source selection, descriptions, assessments and verification are editorial decisions. Payment cannot buy inclusion, a favourable description or a higher editorial assessment.
Our selection and verification approach is described in the editorial methodology.
Featured and sponsored placements
Featured placements reflect editorial emphasis. Any sponsored placement must be clearly labelled and carry a visible disclosure. Sponsorship does not alter the underlying source record or its verification state.
Source-level disclosures
Source profiles explain publisher ownership and may include relevant relationships or limitations. Official, independent and commercial describe ownership; they are not quality grades.
People recommending a source are asked to disclose relevant relationships. Our editors assess submissions before deciding whether to publish them.
What inclusion means
Inclusion is not an endorsement of every view, product or service offered by a publisher. Directory provides discovery and editorial context, not investment, legal, tax or other professional advice. Readers should assess a source and its terms independently before relying on it.
Corrections and questions
Use “Suggest a correction” on the source profile to report an error or outdated detail. Our editors check suggested changes before updating a listing. For other questions, contact the directory team.
