Editorial policy

Last updated: October 2026

Evidence first

We only show a certification as verified when we've found it in the official record of the body that issues it, and we link to that record.

Independence

Our rankings are never for sale. Commissions don't affect which products we include or how we rate them.

No testing claims

We don't test products ourselves and never claim to. Our ratings combine official certifications and safety records with owner reviews.

Accuracy and corrections

We re-check records regularly. If you spot something out of date, email hello@consumerproductauthority.com and we'll review it promptly.
