Editorial Policy

ProductGuru publishes consumer information about products, ingredients, recalls, and safety regulations. This page sets out how we source content, verify facts, and correct errors. It applies to every page on this site.

Editorial responsibility

Czech Export Advisory s.r.o. (IČO 21928762, registered Příčná 1892/4, 110 00 Praha 1, Czech Republic) is the publisher. The jednatel (managing director) holds editorial responsibility for all content published on this site under Czech law and EU Article 50(4) of Regulation (EU) 2024/1689.

Independence

Our content is funded by display advertising and by affiliate commissions from eBay Partner Network and Amazon Associates. We do not accept direct payment from brands, manufacturers, or advertisers in exchange for editorial placement, ranking, or coverage. Affiliate relationships are arm's-length and disclosed; they do not influence which products we cover or how we rank them.

How we source facts

Regulatory information is sourced directly from public government registries:

European Union: RAPEX (Safety Gate), EU REACH SVHC, EU EPREL energy labels, EU certifications, Stockholm POPs, EUDAMED.
United States: CPSC recalls, FDA recalls, openFDA, GUDID, Prop 65, IARC carcinogens.
Canada, Japan, China, Health Canada: respective national recall and substance-restriction registries.
International: WHO Essential Medicines, IARC.
Product data: Open Food Facts (ODbL), USDA FoodData Central, public manufacturer disclosures.

Every factual claim about a product, recall, ingredient, or certification carries a citation to the originating gov source with a last-fetched date.

How we use AI

Blog content is produced automatically from public-source data: some articles are drafted by AI, others are generated from templates or compiled from official notices, and each carries a notice saying which. Articles are not reviewed one by one before publication. Quality scoring uses Groq Llama 3.3 70B. Operational work is assisted by Anthropic Claude. AI is never used to generate medical, financial, or legal advice. The site carries the EU AI Act Article 50(4) disclosure in both machine-readable form (<meta name="ai-generated">) and human-readable form (this page and AI Usage).

What we do not do

We do not give medical, financial, or legal advice. We surface facts and refer the reader to a qualified specialist.
We do not accept brand-paid content, sponsored rankings, or advertorial.
We do not invent prices, availability, or product attributes. If we do not have a verified value, we omit the field.
We do not write under pseudonyms or assign authorship to fictitious experts. All content is published in the name of the publisher.

Factual-accuracy procedure

After publication: see Notice & Action for the correction-request route. We aim to acknowledge within 24 hours and correct within 72.
