Last updated: February 2026

At My Review About (myreviewabout.com), every piece of content we publish is guided by a single commitment: to give readers honest, accurate, and genuinely useful information they can act on with confidence. This Editorial Policy explains who creates our content, how we research and test products, how we maintain complete independence from our commercial relationships, how we handle errors, and what standards every piece of content on this site must meet. It should be read alongside our Affiliate Disclosure, Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy, and Disclaimer.

Our Mission

My Review About exists to help consumers make confident, well-informed purchasing decisions. We cover a broad range of product categories — including health and wellness wearables, fitness technology, home products, and consumer electronics — across multiple languages and markets. Our goal is to bridge the gap between what companies claim their products do and what those products actually deliver in real-world conditions. We started from a simple frustration: too many people waste money on products that promise the world but deliver nothing, not because the technology is necessarily bad, but because nobody explained how it actually worked or whether the marketing promises were realistic. That is the gap we exist to close.

Who Creates Our Content

My Review About was founded by Sylvain, whose background is directly relevant to the products and topics we cover. Sylvain dedicated nearly three decades to competitive water polo — including five years representing his country’s national team and seven years as head coach developing players who still compete at national level today. When his playing career ended, he studied physiotherapy, training clinically in South America, at Mercy Hospital in Baltimore, and subsequently in Argentina and France, always specialising in sports medicine and rehabilitation. Back in Europe, he went on to work with the world’s leading therapeutic virtual reality platform, training physiotherapists to integrate advanced rehabilitation technology into clinical practice.

This combination — elite athletic experience, clinical physiotherapy training, and hands-on work with health technology at a professional level — forms the foundation of how we evaluate health and wellness products. Sylvain understands what manufacturer claims actually mean from a physiological standpoint, and more importantly, he knows when those claims are exaggerated, scientifically unsupported, or simply unrealistic for the average user.

As My Review About grows across product categories and languages, additional contributors may be involved in content production. All contributors are required to have direct, personal experience with the products or topics they write about. Author credentials and relevant experience are referenced within content where appropriate to help readers assess the authority of the information provided.

Editorial Independence

Our editorial content is completely independent of our commercial relationships. The fact that a brand runs an affiliate programme, has offered us a product for review, or pays a higher commission rate has zero influence on our ratings, rankings, conclusions, or recommendations. Brands and manufacturers have no input into our editorial content, no right of review before publication, and no ability to request changes to published content. Positive reviews are earned — not paid for.

We do not accept payment to write, publish, or alter reviews. We do not accept payment to improve a product’s ranking or rating. We do not engage in undisclosed sponsored content of any kind. When we receive a product for free from a brand for review purposes, this is always disclosed clearly within that article. Free receipt of a product does not guarantee a positive review — we publish our honest assessment regardless. If a product doesn’t meet our standards, we won’t publish a review. Commission potential doesn’t change that decision.

Our Review and Testing Process

We follow a rigorous, consistent process for every product review we publish. Our approach has two modes depending on the product:

• Direct hands-on testing — for products we test personally, they are used in real-world conditions over an extended period. For Sylvain, this means devices are worn through actual training sessions, water polo, surfing, and climbing — not in a controlled lab environment or a one-day trial. A fitness tracker that can’t survive an ocean swell or a climbing session tells you something important that a spec sheet never will.
• Translation and research — for products we do not test directly, we read what manufacturers claim and translate the technical jargon into plain language. Our professional background allows us to identify when claims are exaggerated or scientifically questionable, and we supplement this with independent research into clinical studies, official technical documentation, and verified user feedback.
• Competitive context — products are evaluated relative to their direct competitors at the same price point. A product is never assessed in isolation.
• Consistent criteria — within each product category, we apply a consistent set of evaluation criteria so that comparisons between products are fair and meaningful.
• Balanced and honest assessment — every review must identify both strengths and weaknesses. We do not publish uniformly positive reviews without legitimate justification. If a product has significant drawbacks, they are clearly stated. Knowing when to say “this isn’t for you” is just as important as making a recommendation.
• Price and availability verification — pricing information is verified at the time of publication. Because prices change frequently, we always direct readers to verify current pricing directly with the retailer before purchasing.

Content Types We Publish

My Review About publishes the following types of content, each governed by the same commitment to accuracy and reader value:

• Product reviews — in-depth assessments of individual products based on direct testing and research, covering design, real-world performance, value, and our overall recommendation.
• Comparisons — head-to-head evaluations of competing products to help readers identify which best suits their specific needs and budget.
• Buying guides — educational content that helps readers understand what to look for in a product category before making a purchase decision.
• How-to and informational articles — practical content explaining how to get the most from a product, set it up, troubleshoot issues, or understand its features.
• News and updates — coverage of significant product launches, price changes, firmware updates, or manufacturer announcements relevant to our audience.

Accuracy and Fact-Checking Standards

Every factual claim published on this site must be verifiable. Our fact-checking process requires that:

• Product specifications are verified against official manufacturer documentation or direct product testing — not sourced from third-party retailers or aggregators alone.
• Health, medical, or scientific claims are supported by peer-reviewed research, official clinical guidelines, or statements from qualified professionals. We do not present unverified health claims as established fact. Our primary reviewer’s physiotherapy training is specifically applied to evaluating these claims.
• Pricing information is current at the time of publication. Readers are always directed to verify current pricing directly with the retailer before purchasing.
• Statistics and third-party data are attributed to their original source. We do not reproduce statistics without identifying where they come from.
• Any claim that cannot be verified to our standard is either removed or clearly qualified with appropriate uncertainty language.

Our Policy on AI-Assisted Content

Some content on My Review About is produced with the assistance of AI writing tools, or draws on third-party data sources including manufacturer documentation, clinical literature, translated material, and verified user data. This is part of how we are able to maintain a multilingual website covering seven languages and multiple product categories at the quality level our readers expect.

However, all content published on this site — regardless of how it was produced — is reviewed, edited, fact-checked, and approved by a human editor before publication. AI tools are used to support our editorial process, not to replace human expertise or judgement. Product assessments, test results, recommendations, and conclusions are always derived from direct human experience and research. AI tools are not used to fabricate testing results, invent user experiences, or generate product claims.

Despite our best efforts to ensure accuracy at every stage, errors can occasionally appear — particularly in content that draws on third-party sources or covers rapidly changing product information such as pricing and specifications. If you identify an inaccuracy in any of our content, we encourage you to contact us so we can review and correct it promptly. See our Corrections Policy below for how we handle this.

How We Handle Affiliate Relationships

Some links on this website are affiliate links, meaning we may earn a commission if you click through and make a purchase. This comes at no additional cost to you and does not affect the price you pay. Our affiliate relationships are governed by a strict separation of commercial and editorial functions:

• Affiliate commission rates do not influence which products we review, how we rate them, or what we conclude about them.
• We include affiliate links to products we recommend honestly — we do not recommend products solely because they carry an affiliate programme.
• Where a product we recommend does not have an affiliate programme, we link to it anyway. Reader trust matters more than commission revenue.
• All affiliate relationships are disclosed prominently on every page that contains affiliate links, in accordance with FTC guidelines and EU consumer protection law.

For complete details on our affiliate relationships and how they work, please read our Affiliate Disclosure.

Sponsored Content Policy

We do not currently publish sponsored posts, paid placements, or native advertising in which a brand pays for editorial coverage. If this policy changes in the future, any sponsored content will be clearly and prominently labelled as such at the top of the article, separate from any affiliate disclosure. Sponsored content will never be presented as independent editorial opinion.

Health Content Standards

A significant portion of our content covers health and wellness products, including fitness trackers, recovery devices, and biometric monitoring wearables. Given the sensitivity of health-related content, we apply additional standards in this area:

• Health-related product claims are evaluated against published scientific literature and official clinical guidelines where relevant.
• We do not present consumer wearables as medical devices unless they hold official medical device certification in the relevant jurisdiction.
• Our health content benefits directly from Sylvain’s physiotherapy degree and his decades of experience in competitive sport and sports medicine rehabilitation across multiple countries. He understands the difference between a clinically meaningful metric and a marketing-friendly number on a screen.
• All health content includes appropriate caveats directing readers to consult qualified healthcare professionals for personal medical decisions. See our full Disclaimer for details.

Content Updates and Accuracy Over Time

Product information changes constantly. Prices change, firmware updates alter device performance, products are discontinued, and better alternatives emerge. We are committed to keeping our content accurate over time:

• Articles display a “Last updated” date so readers know when the content was most recently reviewed.
• We conduct periodic reviews of high-traffic and time-sensitive content to ensure it reflects the current state of the product and market.
• When a product we have reviewed is substantially updated by the manufacturer, we update our review to reflect those changes.
• When a product is discontinued, we update the article to reflect this and where appropriate redirect readers to current alternatives.

Corrections Policy

We take factual accuracy seriously. If an error is identified in any of our published content — whether by a reader, a manufacturer, or our own editorial team — we correct it promptly and transparently:

• Minor factual errors (such as an incorrect specification or outdated price) are corrected directly in the article and the “Last updated” date is revised.
• Significant errors that may have misled readers are corrected with an editorial note within the article explaining what was changed and when.
• Retractions are issued in the rare event that an article contains fundamental inaccuracies that cannot be corrected by amendment.

If you believe you have found an error in any of our content, please contact us with the specific article URL and the nature of the error. We review all correction requests and respond within 5 business days.

Multilingual Content Standards

My Review About publishes content in seven languages: English, French, Spanish, German, Dutch, Portuguese, and Greek. All language versions are held to the same editorial standards as our English originals. Translations are reviewed for accuracy, naturalness, and local market relevance. Localised versions may include region-specific pricing, availability information, or retailer recommendations appropriate to each market. Machine translation is used as a production tool only — all localised content passes through human review before publication.

• Makes false or unverifiable claims about any product, service, or individual
• Constitutes misleading advertising or disguised commercial promotion without proper disclosure
• Presents health or medical claims as established fact without scientific basis
• Disparages competitors, brands, or individuals unfairly or without factual basis
• Infringes the intellectual property rights of any third party
