Commercial transparency

Advertising & Affiliate Disclosure

How commercial relationships will be separated from Nilaanjan's editorial judgment.

Advertising

Nilaanjan may display advertising as the publication grows. Advertising does not purchase a positive editorial conclusion.

Affiliate links

Some future articles may contain affiliate links. When an affiliate relationship exists, it will be disclosed clearly to readers.

Sponsored content

Sponsored or paid content will be identified as such. Commercial partnerships will not be presented as independent editorial reviews.

Editorial independence

Payment, advertising, affiliate relationships or sponsorships must not determine a review's rating or verdict.

Reader-first principle

Commercialisation is intended to support the publication without compromising the trust that makes the editorial work valuable.

Newsletter subscriptions

Nilaanjan may offer an email newsletter so readers can follow new reviews, guides, explainers and selected editorial work. Newsletter subscriptions are handled through Buttondown. The newsletter is an audience and editorial distribution channel and is not, by itself, sponsored content or advertising.
