Editorial policy

The standards we hold ourselves to, written plainly enough to be held to them.

Independent decisions

Velquies aims to make independent editorial decisions. What appears in The Edit, and what we say about it, is determined by our own assessment of the product and the category — not by a commercial relationship.

Commercial relationships

Some links may earn Velquies a commission. Commercial relationships do not determine editorial inclusion, ordering or wording. Where a page contains affiliate links, we say so on that page.

Strengths and limitations

Every recommendation explains both what a product does well and where it falls short, including who it is unlikely to suit. A recommendation without a limitation is usually an advertisement.

Testing claims

We never describe a product as physically tested unless it genuinely has been, and we record what was done. Where a selection is based on specifications, published information and category expertise rather than hands-on use, we say that plainly.

Research and evidence

Where we refer to research, we represent it accurately and proportionately. Sleep evidence is often modest and conditional; we prefer to report it that way rather than overstate it. Velquies publishes general information, not medical advice.

Review and updates

Recommendations and guides are reviewed and updated where appropriate, and each page carries a last-checked or last-updated date. Pricing is indicative and may change at the retailer.

Corrections

If we get something wrong, we correct it and note the change. Contact details for corrections are on the contact page.
