Editorial Policy
This policy explains how ZeroToVPN produces rankings and reviews. The goal is simple: measurable output, explainable scoring, repeatable testing, and transparent business boundaries.
How rankings are governed
Our core ranking logic is documented publicly in /methodology. The report surface that readers use for comparison is the Transparency & Performance Index.
We do not promise that a VPN is "perfect". We publish trade-offs and context so readers can choose by use case.
Editorial team members can reject sponsored requests, rating pressure, and product claims that are not supported by test evidence.
Commercial boundaries
ZeroToVPN may earn affiliate commissions, but this does not alter rankings or test outcomes. Full details are available on /affiliate-disclosure.
- Commission rate is not a ranking variable.
- Affiliate status does not grant guaranteed placement.
- Negative findings are published even for partners.
Corrections and updates
If a factual error is reported and verified, we update the page and refresh the relevant test entry. Major corrections are reflected in updated timestamps on affected pages.
Report an issue via /contact and include the URL, claim, and source evidence.
