How NerdsMagazine Is Funded
Google AdSense
NerdsMagazine uses Google AdSense to display advertising. The appearance of an advertisement beside an article does not mean the advertiser selected, approved, or controlled the surrounding article or its conclusion.
Sponsored and Partner Content
NerdsMagazine may consider selected sponsored or partner content when the commercial nature of the material can be disclosed clearly. Sponsored content should remain distinguishable from independent editorial work.
See our Sponsored Content Policy.
Editorial Independence
Advertisers and sponsors cannot purchase positive independent coverage, a predetermined review conclusion, a guaranteed recommendation, a predetermined score, a higher independent ranking position, suppression of a legitimate correction, or removal of accurate criticism.
Paid visibility does not determine editorial ranking position.
Affiliate Status
NerdsMagazine does not currently use affiliate links as an established publishing model.
Product Access and Review Units
Companies may provide products, temporary review units, software access, subscriptions, trial accounts, briefings, or other forms of access that help journalists evaluate technology. Receiving access does not guarantee publication, positive coverage, a favorable score, a recommendation, or a particular ranking position.
Commercial Partnerships
NerdsMagazine may consider research collaborations, data partnerships, events, media collaborations, content syndication, or other institutional or commercial projects. A partnership should not be presented as independent editorial endorsement when it is commercial in nature.
