If we watch you

Your record is not for sale. Neither is fixing it.

We keep dated copies of the pages you publish and quote them word for word. It isn’t a review, a score or a ranking, so there is no position in it that money can move.

A cartoon. At a records counter, a visitor in a suit slides an envelope across. The clerk pushes it back with one finger and hands him a bound document tagged “your copy, free”. Tape on the counter reads “not for sale”.
Taking a copy costs nothing.

Claim your record, and four things open up. All free.

The only credential is an email at your own company’s domain.

Your copy opens with a short note from us. The record section carries no Xither mark and is not our statement. Whatever you send your customers is your communication, not ours.

Not for sale, at any price.

  • A change to what we publish about you.
  • A “validation” or “update” of your own record, under any name.
  • Removal of anything we quote.
  • Priority, ordering, or prominence anywhere on this site.

A vendor can subscribe to watch the vendors in its own product, at the same price everyone pays. That has nothing to do with your record, and changes nothing in it.

We don’t name which vendors hold a copy. We do report how many, and every change to a notice clause we quote, so a softened clause would be visible to anyone.
