Editorial Policy
This page explains how SexCam777 creates, tests, and publishes content. We believe readers deserve to understand the standards behind any recommendation they act on โ especially in a category as personal as sexual wellness.
Core Principles ยง
๐งช All products are independently tested ยง
We purchase products at retail price or through standard consumer channels. Products received from brands are used under the same testing criteria and returned or disclosed. We do not publish reviews of products we have not personally used.
๐ซ No paid reviews or paid placements ยง
Brands cannot pay for positive reviews, higher ratings, or editorial placement. We do not accept "sponsored review" arrangements. Affiliate relationships are disclosed but do not influence scores โ we have given poor ratings to high-commission products and vice versa.
๐ฉโ๐ฌ Expert authors with real credentials ยง
Every review category is assigned to a qualified expert. Our team includes a PhD sex educator, a relationship therapist, a tech analyst, and an adult industry product tester. See our team page for full credentials.
๐ Content is updated annually (minimum) ยง
Products change. Prices change. Better alternatives emerge. We review and update all major articles at least once per year. Articles show their last-updated date. Outdated content is either updated or clearly marked as historical.
๐ Affiliate links are disclosed ยง
Where we earn a commission, we say so โ on the page, near the link. We comply with FTC guidelines on affiliate disclosure. The existence of an affiliate relationship has no bearing on our editorial judgments.
Our Review Process ยง
Step 1 โ Product selection ยง
We identify products based on market significance, reader requests, and category coverage gaps. We do not accept unsolicited products for review without prior editorial agreement.
Step 2 โ Purchase and testing period ยง
Standard testing period: 2โ4 weeks for software/platform reviews, 4โ6 weeks for physical products, 6โ8 weeks for comprehensive guides and category rankings. We do not publish "unboxing" reviews or first impressions as definitive reviews.
Step 3 โ Scoring ยง
Products are scored on category-specific criteria. See our How We Test page for the full rubric. Scores are assigned by the reviewing expert and reviewed by an editor before publication.
Step 4 โ Expert sign-off ยง
All content touching on health, safety, or medical topics is reviewed by Dr. Sarah Mitchell (PhD Human Sexuality) before publication.
Step 5 โ Publication and maintenance ยง
Published articles are dated and flagged for annual review. Significant product changes trigger a re-review cycle. Reader corrections are investigated and addressed within 5 business days.
Corrections Policy ยง
If we publish factual errors, we correct them promptly and note the correction in the article with a date. We do not silently edit errors. Corrections are distinguished from routine content updates.
To report an error: contact us.
Conflicts of Interest ยง
Team members may not review products from companies they have a financial stake in. Undisclosed conflicts of interest are grounds for removal from the review team. We do not accept equity, gifts above $50, or entertainment from brands we cover.
AI and Automation Policy ยง
We may use AI tools to assist with research, formatting, or translation. All final content โ including scores, recommendations, and safety assessments โ is reviewed and signed off by a human expert. We do not publish fully AI-generated reviews.
