DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE
Commercial links and editorial independence
Some commercial folders contain a prominently marked sponsored link. Prospective supply does not purchase listing position, mark color, change of source or removal of documented conclusion.
Visible commercial relationship
A bookmarked link may generate a commission. We do not sell a position in the directory and do not accept payment for a change of conclusion. The commercial relationship is declared before the click and remains separate from the evidence. Material sent by a commercial operator will be marked as such and will not replace the registry, legislation or independent audit.
Marking before action
Commercial CTAs display an age limit and a clear indication of sponsored referral. We do not convert bonus, urgency or list position into proof of trustworthiness.
- No codes
- Clearly labeled links provided
- Unranked
Legal and editorial control
Before any model change, a special check of the applicable framework, commercial communication approvals and protection of minors is required. The word "journalistic" is not automatically considered permission to promote.
Control of commercial influence
The Greek framework of commercial communication and affiliate eligibility requires attention before any promotional operation. Publishing independence is considered as a flow of incentives: who pays, what reader action generates revenue, and whether the choice of topic or conclusion can be bought.
- 01
Map the trade-off
Click, registration, deposit, loss, fixed sponsorship or free access can create different pressures. Changing the name does not change the motivation. Where there is a potential fee from a player referral, it is highlighted next to the link.
- 02
Check the content as an act
Bonus, urgent offer, registration button or rank may direct to game even if the text is called informational. The presence or absence of an affiliate URL is not sufficient when the language and structure are promotional.
- 03
Keep the source distinct
Provider material, response and press release are clearly attributed. They do not turn into an independent receipt and do not buy a position. Records and documents are checked outside the commercial material.
- 04
Require inspection before change
Any change to the model needs a specific legal evaluation of the applicable framework, approvals and protection of minors. This statement does not pre-approve advertising or affiliate functionality.

Points that require pause and control
"Independent" without a financial statement
The title does not indicate how the publisher is paid. A clear description of the model is needed.
Priority paid
Buying series or viewing time can alter the selection even without changing the text.
Promotional copy as a comparison
Terms such as "best" or "exclusive" are not neutral screening criteria.

Frequently asked questions
Will you accept advertising?
There are only marked commercial references on selected pages. The test result is not sold and each new format requires a motivation, compliance and reader information test.
Can a provider request a correction?
Yes, through the functional contact form and without payment. It should identify the actual error and the source. Mere disagreement or commercial pressure does not buy change.
Why not compare bonuses?
They are not required for license, domain, complaint or payment verification and can encourage participation. The publication does not assess the economic attractiveness of gambling.
Example of commercial proposal evaluation
A company offers a fixed fee per article and states that it does not require a positive review, but requests a link to a sign-up page. The proposal still links the content to access to a game and needs consideration as a commercial communication. It can only be considered as an apparently granted reference, without affecting control or masquerading as independent proof.
Another proposal provides factual correction and document without payment. The material can be examined as the author's position, compared with primary sources and corrected for factual error. It does not secure a favorable position or concealment. The distinction is based on motivation and usage, not just whether a banner is displayed.

Independence Archive
Each provision of value is recorded with source, amount or type, terms and possible relationship to the content. The statement will be visible before the reader encounters a relevant reference, not hidden in general terms. If the relationship creates an incentive to participate or a favorable ranking, it does not fit the model. Having a record doesn't cure illegal promotion; it just enables transparency and control.
