Site Guidelines
We run CyberInsider.com according to the following principles and guidelines.
Honesty and transparency
While we take our privacy seriously, we are real people trying to help others navigate the journey of digital security and online safety in an honest and transparent manner. All of our articles and reviews are based on real tests and research we have conducted ourselves (we never accept paid content).
Human-written content that is up-to-date and factually accurate
Real humans write the content for CyberInsider.com. We strive for all of our articles to be factually accurate, up-to-date, and helpful to our readers. We do not use AI tools to mass-generate articles. Corrections and tips can be submitted on our contact page.
We do not accept sponsored content, guest posts, paid reviews, or paid linking schemes
Many websites get paid to promote “guest posts” or “sponsored” content in one form or another. Additionally, many websites are paid for the strategic placement of links. CyberInsider.com does not participate in any paid/sponsored content, guest posts, or paid linking schemes.
We also do not participate in any form of paid reviews. In other words, if we review a product, we do it independently. We first purchase the product or service with our own money, then write the review based on our own testing and analysis. And if the product or service does not do well in the review, we will not be paid to change it (but we will always correct any mistakes or errors).
Compliance with Google Webmaster Guidelines
This site fully complies with Google's Webmaster Guidelines. All of the content on this site is original and based on our own research and work. We also keep things regularly updated to ensure our articles and reviews reflect the latest information about a product or service.
No outside investors or third-party ownership
In the cybersecurity space, you can find various examples where the owners of a given product(s) also own websites that “review” the same products/services. It's obvious that this creates a conflict of interest – and in many cases there is no disclosure.
We of course frown on this practice and are proud to state that CyberInsider.com is a completely independent entity, with no financial ownership ties to any of the products or services we review.
How to contact us
You can reach the Cyber Insider team through our contact page. Despite being extra busy these days running this website, we'll do our best to reply to all messages.
