Readers should be able to trust what they read on AroHarbour. This page explains how we choose, write about and label the products on our website, and how we make money.
1. How we make money
AroHarbour is free to read. Our revenue comes from software companies that buy Featured or Premium listings. We may in future join affiliate programmes; if we do, affiliate links will be disclosed on the page where they appear.
2. How paid placements are labelled
Every paid placement is clearly marked Sponsored. Paid placements may appear higher in a category or on the home page, but they are never presented as an editorial recommendation.
3. Editorial independence
- Our buying guides are written by our editorial team, not by software companies.
- Payment cannot buy a positive review, a rating or the removal of fair criticism.
- Software companies cannot review or approve guides before publication.
4. How we choose and assess products
We include products that are legitimate, actively maintained and available to UK businesses. When writing guides we consider: UK pricing in GBP, HMRC / Making Tax Digital compatibility where relevant, UK GDPR and data hosting options, ease of use, integrations and quality of customer support. We use public information from providers' websites and, where possible, hands-on trials.
5. Accuracy and corrections
Software changes quickly. We review guides regularly and show the date they were last updated. If you spot an error, please email [email protected] and we will review it promptly.
6. Trademarks
Product names and logos are the property of their owners and are used for identification only. Their use does not imply endorsement of, or affiliation with, AroHarbour unless stated.
