About this directory
A privacy-services directory built for people who actually use these tools, not for crawlers harvesting affiliate fees. Every entry is hand-reviewed against a published rubric; placement is editorial; sponsorship moves placement but never grades.
How this list is maintained
- A small team (currently one curator plus a small advisory group) reviews entries against the methodology. New listings are tested end-to-end — signup, payment, withdrawal — before they land.
- Every listing carries a
last_verifiedstamp. Entries older than 18 months get downgraded by one letter grade until re-tested. - A daily uptime probe checks every provider's canonical URL — see /status for the live board.
- Every curation change is logged in the public audit feed.
How we make money
- Affiliate links. Where a provider offers an affiliate program, the
/go/<slug>outbound carries our referral. We disclose these by tagging entries with the1ST PARTYorAFFILIATEchip where relevant. Affiliate status does not influence grade or position. - Sponsorships. See /sponsor. Sponsored entries get a SPONSORED chip and bubble to the top of their category. They do not change grade, tagging, or removal criteria — editorial firewall.
- That's it. No newsletter sales, no scraping fees, no premium tiers for users.
