How we rate

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. 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.
