Ethics Statement
Lensel will always be transparent about content for which disclosures are needed. We will clearly state when content is sponsored by a company or if there may be a conflict of interest present in our coverage. Unless otherwise indicated, all other content is published without any sponsorship from businesses or individuals.

Our reviews of products are based on our opinions resulting from hands-on tests, and — regardless of our relationship with the companies behind them — are not always favorable.

We keep our advertising and our editorial content strictly separate. Advertisers do not have influence over our content, nor do we ever accept any form of compensation in exchange for articles unless it’s clearly-marked sponsored content.

Affiliate Links
We will occasionally use affiliate links (e.g. Amazon’s Affiliate Program) when directing readers elsewhere to learn more about products. Lensel receives a small percentage of profit from sales generated through these links.
