You might have come to our website in search of a product, and in our journeys, we may compare them to other products. In short, we take our reviews and compare them against other products that we have either encountered online, or have used in person. As this is the case there may be times where you find product references that we do not have direct ( or any ) partnerships with. This is because sometimes we can't get in touch with companies, like car makers, or large electronic manufacturers. To that end we wanted to ensure our fair use disclaimer ensure that there is total clarity in not only our reviews but articles as well. This is why we have updated this post to include the fair use policy for complete clarity to companies that see their products on our sites, as well as company owners.

If there are ever any issues, concerns, requests, or information needed regarding the use of trademarks or policies please fill read over our policy and contact us directly so we can help resolve these requests.
