Hi
I'm Jan the founder of this blog.
Welcome to the behind-the-scenes of my review process! Here, you'll get the lowdown on how I take on product, service, and experience reviews with my unique blend of brutal honesty and straight up things talk. I’m all about keeping things 100, so here’s the scoop: I don’t do sponsored posts, pay-for-play reviews, or answer product queries via email. Instead, I focus on genuine, in-depth assessments and lively community engagement. Read on to see how I keep it real and why that’s a win for you!
Unfiltered Perspective
This is my gosh darn blog, and every review you’ll find here reflects my own brutally honest, thoroughly tested, and critically informed opinions.
Integrity Matters
Favorable reviews can NOT be bought or influenced here. As a gamer, I’ve always despised pay-to-win mechanics, and that principle carries over into my real-life philosophy. Any product or service featured positively on this blog has truly earned it.
Engaged Community
I prioritize quality over quantity. Instead of focusing on follower counts or page views, I measure success by the level of active engagement within my community.
What I do:
Product/Service Reviews
Interested in having your product or service reviewed? That's great! However, as an eco-essentialist, I only accept products that are designed to last, eco-friendly, and aesthetically pleasing. Please review the following conditions before submitting your request.
- Cost Responsibility: You are responsible for all costs associated with sending the product/service for review. This includes shipping fees, import taxes, customs duties, and any other related expenses. If you require the product to be returned after the review, this must be clearly stated before sending the product.
- Honest Review: A well-made, eco-friendly, aesthetically pleasing product does not guarantee a favorable review, but it does ensure an honest and thorough evaluation.
- Content Use: Any photos, videos, or written content produced as part of the review process cannot be used for marketing, promotion, or any other purposes without prior discussion and explicit permission. Unauthorized use of content is prohibited.
- Testing Period: Each product/service is tested for at least 21 days, with reviews typically published 6 to 9 weeks after receipt.
- Independence and Transparency: Reviews are unbiased, and no compensation is accepted for positive reviews. Disclosure of sponsorships or affiliations will always be included.
Experince Reviews
Have an experience you'd like me to review? Fantastic! I'm excited to offer my insights on how to enhance the experience for others. Experiences can range from tours and indoor/outdoor activities to accommodations and food/drink. Please review the following conditions before submitting your request.
- Cost Responsibility: You are responsible for all costs, including transportation, accommodation, and any related expenses for the experience.
- Honest Review: Agreeing to review your experience does not guarantee a favorable review, but it does ensure an honest and thorough evaluation.
- Content Use: Any photos, videos, or written content produced as part of the review process cannot be used for marketing, promotion, or any other purposes without prior discussion and explicit permission. Unauthorized use of content is prohibited.
Review Format, Follow-Up, and Edits
Review format and Length:
The format and length of the review will be determined at my discretion, based on what I believe will provide the most value to my readers. This may include written content, photos, videos, or a combination thereof.
Follow-Up and Feedback:
I may contact you for additional information or clarification during the testing period. Prompt responses are appreciated to ensure the review process proceeds smoothly.
Revisions and Edits:
Once the review is published, it will not be revised or edited upon request. However, if factual errors are identified, I will correct them as soon as possible.
By submitting a product/service for review, you agree to these terms and conditions. Please ensure that you have read and understood them before proceeding.
What I do NOT do:
- I do NOT accept sponsored, guest, or pre-written brand posts.
- I do NOT accept paid positive review requests... Duh.
- I do NOT respond to product questions via email—those emails go to spam. If you want my 2 cents, the best way to get it is by engaging in the comments on the relevant review.
