Welcome to Proper Pigeon. These Terms of Use govern your access to and use of the Proper Pigeon website and its content.
By accessing or using this website, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree with them, please do not use the website.
1. About Proper Pigeon
Proper Pigeon is an independent consumer technology publication providing educational and informational content about hardware, software, gaming, connectivity, and privacy tools, along with product comparisons and buying guides.
Content may include reviews, technical explanations, product comparisons, buyer’s guides, opinions, recommendations, and links to third-party products and services.
2. Informational and Educational Purposes
Content published on Proper Pigeon is provided for general informational and educational purposes only.
Product needs, budgets, use cases, and personal preferences vary between readers. Information published on this website should not be considered a substitute for your own research or a recommendation specifically designed for your circumstances.
You are responsible for evaluating whether any product, recommendation, or purchase decision is appropriate for your needs before making it.
3. Accuracy and Availability of Information
Proper Pigeon aims to publish useful and accurate information. However, technology changes frequently.
Product features, pricing, availability, specifications, promotions, and other information may change after an article is published or reviewed.
We do not guarantee that all information on the website will always be complete, current, or error-free.
Where appropriate, readers should verify important product, pricing, and technical information directly with the relevant retailer or manufacturer before making a purchasing decision.
4. Product Reviews, Comparisons, and Recommendations
Proper Pigeon may publish comparisons, evaluations, recommendations, and other content discussing products or services.
Our evaluations are based on factors that may include vendor documentation, publicly available information, hands-on use where stated, and other sources identified in the relevant content, as described on our How We Review page.
Unless an article explicitly states otherwise, readers should not assume that every product discussed has been independently purchased or hands-on tested by Proper Pigeon.
Product suitability depends on the needs of each reader. Inclusion in an article does not constitute a guarantee that a product will be suitable for a particular person.
5. Affiliate Links and Commercial Relationships
Some pages on Proper Pigeon contain affiliate links.
If you click an affiliate link and complete a qualifying purchase or other qualifying action, Proper Pigeon may receive a commission or referral payment from the retailer, vendor, or affiliate network. This generally does not increase the price you pay.
Affiliate relationships do not guarantee positive coverage, inclusion in an article, or a particular editorial ranking, including the “Proper Pick” seal.
Where applicable, Proper Pigeon provides disclosures identifying affiliate or commercial relationships in connection with relevant content. See our Affiliate Disclosure for details.
6. Sponsored Content
Proper Pigeon may occasionally publish content created in connection with a paid sponsorship or other commercial arrangement.
Sponsored content will be identified as such where appropriate.
Payment for sponsored content does not permit a sponsor to make false or misleading claims through Proper Pigeon, and sponsored relationships do not change our commitment to providing useful information to readers.
7. Third-Party Websites and Services
Proper Pigeon may link to websites, software, services, retailers, affiliate networks, vendors, and other third parties.
These third parties operate independently from Proper Pigeon. We do not control and are not responsible for their websites, availability, security, privacy practices, terms, products, services, pricing, or content.
Following a third-party link is at your own discretion and subject to the terms and policies of the third party.
8. Intellectual Property
Unless otherwise stated, original content published on Proper Pigeon, including articles, written analysis, site branding, and original graphics, is owned by or licensed to Proper Pigeon and is protected by applicable intellectual property laws.
You may link to Proper Pigeon and quote reasonable portions of our content for legitimate commentary, reference, or citation with appropriate attribution.
