Disclosure
dothinker AI nav disclosure for sponsorships, affiliate links, and editorial independence.
Sponsorships
Current seed pages do not include paid placements. If sponsored tools or workflow sponsorships are added later, those pages should label the sponsorship clearly.
Affiliate links
Tool links should not affect editorial judgement. If affiliate links are added, dothinker AI nav should disclose them near the relevant link or page section before readers leave the site.
Advertising
Advertising should not decide which tools are included, how tools are ordered, or whether a risk note is shown. Functional pages, search pages, empty states, and thin utility pages should not be treated as primary ad inventory.
Vendor relationships
A vendor may suggest a correction or submit a tool, but publishing still requires editorial review. Vendor-provided claims should be checked against public sources or written conservatively when independent confirmation is not available.
Reader expectation
Readers should treat outbound links as starting points for their own verification. Pricing, quotas, model access, commercial rights, and regional availability can change, so procurement or production use should always include a final check of the official vendor page.
Placement boundaries
If ads are enabled, the preferred inventory is long-form scenario guides, substantive article pages, and mature tool or category pages. Ads should not crowd forms, search results, support pages, correction flows, or pages whose main purpose is account help rather than publisher content.
Editorial independence
A commercial relationship should never remove a relevant limitation, privacy note, source warning, or manual-review requirement from a page. If a page later includes sponsored visibility, that relationship should be visible to the reader before they act on the recommendation, compare alternatives, or share the page with a team during procurement review.
How this page is used
This trust page supports the same editorial boundary used across the directory: readers should know who maintains the page, how claims are reviewed, where commercial incentives may appear, and how mistakes can be corrected. It also helps separate publisher content from functional pages such as search, submission forms, support hubs, or temporary localized mirrors that may stay available without being treated as search-indexed advertising inventory. When policies, vendors, or product capabilities change, these pages should be updated before expanding ads or automated publishing flows, because trust context is part of the user experience, not a footer-only compliance note. The practical test is simple: a reader should be able to understand the site's incentives, correction path, and review standard without guessing how the directory turns submissions and AI-assisted drafts into published pages. That standard also applies before any new ad placement is introduced publicly.
