Editorial Guidelines
At Top3VPN, our mission is to provide clear, independent, and trustworthy reviews of VPN services worldwide. This editorial policy outlines how we write, test, and update content across all of our VPN comparison sites.
✍️ Who Writes Our Content
All of our content is created by experienced privacy writers, security researchers, or editorial analysts with deep knowledge of the VPN industry.
We also use AI-assisted writing tools under the close supervision of our editorial team — enabling faster coverage while maintaining human judgment, ethics, and tone.
✅ Our Content Principles
Each article we publish follows four core principles:
- Experience: Our testers use VPNs firsthand and report real-world behavior.
- Expertise: Topics are selected by researchers who understand VPN tech, encryption, and privacy law.
- Authoritativeness: All reviews reflect the collective voice of the Top3VPN brand and editorial team.
- Trustworthiness: We disclose affiliate links, cite sources when relevant, and revise content regularly.
🧪 How We Rank VPNs
Our VPN rankings are based on:
- Real user speed tests (multiple locations)
- Privacy policy analysis (no-logs, jurisdiction, audit history)
- Feature testing (kill switch, split tunneling, streaming access)
- Transparency scores and editorial insights
We do not sell ranking positions. All affiliate partnerships are disclosed, and editorial decisions remain fully independent.
🔍 Review & Fact Checking
Before publication, every article undergoes:
- VPN feature validation (speed, privacy, logging claims)
- Editorial review for clarity, fairness, and balance
- SEO and compliance check (privacy keywords, legal frameworks)
- Scheduled updates at least every 90 days — or immediately if breaking changes occur
