Editorial & Site Policies
Effective date: November 5, 2025
These policies explain how EG Gear operates—how we research and review products, how we label ads and affiliates, and how we moderate comments.
Editorial independence
Our recommendations are based on merit and reader value. Revenue operations (ads and affiliate links) do not decide what we cover or recommend. Editorial and commercial teams operate with clear separation.
Research and verification
We verify key details against manufacturer documentation and present findings in plain, reader‑first language. When we add hands‑on notes, we label them as our observations. If we discover a factual error, we correct it promptly and note material changes.
Reviews and guides
- Decision‑first writing: concise summaries, who it’s for, key takeaways, and sensible alternatives.
- Consistency: normalized labels and units across categories, so comparisons stay clear.
- Freshness: we revisit guides and picks as models update or pricing shifts.
Advertising
We display clearly labeled ads. Ad code may set cookies or use device identifiers to deliver, measure, and personalize ads in compliance with our Privacy Policy and applicable consent requirements in the EEA/UK/Switzerland.
Affiliate links
EG Gear uses affiliate links to support our work. Links do not influence which products we recommend or how we rate them. We disclose affiliate relationships near links where practical and via site‑wide notices. EG Gear participates in the Amazon Associates Program; As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases.
Corrections and updates
If you spot an error, tell us. For material corrections, we update the article and add a brief note describing what changed and when.
Product samples and loans
We may accept product samples or temporary loans. Acceptance does not guarantee coverage, positive coverage, or preview/approval rights.
Community standards (comments)
Keep it constructive and respectful. No harassment, hate, illegal content, spam, or off‑topic promotion. We may moderate, remove content, or restrict accounts that violate these rules.
Accessibility and inclusion
