Policy

Straced is signal-filtered intelligence on the AI stack — sourced numbers, production friction, direction shifts, rulings, and on-the-record quotes.

The rule is simple: facts first, implications second, no hype either way.

Revenue does not decide what Straced covers, how it is framed, or what gets omitted.

Tool verdicts stay editorial. If a sponsor's product is overhyped, we still say so.

If a piece is sponsored, it is labeled as Supported by [Sponsor].

That line sits outside the editorial sections. No hidden paid placements, and no pay-to-rank coverage.

Straced does not run programmatic ads.

Affiliate links may appear on tool cards only — not inside editorial narrative.

Any affiliate relationship is disclosed on the card or entry itself.

If a factual claim is wrong, Straced corrects it in public. No silent rewrites.

Email addresses, if collected, are not sold or shared with third parties.

Every email includes an unsubscribe link.

The website uses basic traffic analytics via Google Analytics. Straced does not run ad pixels or third-party ad tracking networks.

• —Bury paid influence inside editorial content.
• —Switch RSS to summary-only just to force clicks.
• —Use loaded language that evidence does not support.
• —Use hidden ad-tech tracking practices.
