Editorial independence
Money cannot move the list.
Kinda Decent applies the published methodology to every venue. A paid relationship cannot change scoring inputs, weights, rank, stars, inclusion in the corpus or editorial treatment.
Commercial support
Kinda Decent may accept commercial support in future. Any paid or provided relationship will be labelled where it appears and recorded in the site’s disclosures. Sponsors will have no approval over the formula, venue records, rankings, star decisions or editorial copy.
