Data sources

Our ratings technology and independent analysts compile and evaluate brands’ own public reporting, the most robust third-party indices, as well as certifications and accreditations (listed in this section). We only use publicly available information. It’s fundamental to consumer rights that brands fully, accurately, and consistently report on their impacts. As a consumer, you have a right to know how brands impact on the issues you care about most. Transparency promotes accountability and is crucial in shaping regulations and keeping brands to their promises.
