How the site is funded

This page explains how Bipolar Test is funded and how that does, and does not, affect what you see on bipolar-test.com. It covers every page, including the tool and the guides.

How the site is funded

Advertising is how bipolar-test.com is funded: it pays for the server, the development of the bipolar test and the guides. Using the tool requires no payment and no sign-up. Because ad income has nothing to do with what the bipolar test calculates or suggests, there is no incentive to nudge your results.

The ads you see

Ads on the site are served by third-party advertising networks. Which ad you see is decided by the network, normally by automated systems that consider the page and, where allowed, your interests.

We do not pick individual ads, so an ad on a page is not an endorsement by Bipolar Test. Our Privacy Policy describes the cookies and data the networks use.

Editorial independence

Neither advertisers nor ad networks influence how the bipolar test works or what the guides say. The purpose of the guides is to help you use the bipolar test well, and that is the only thing that decides their content. Errors are corrected when we find them or when readers point them out. You can report one at [email protected].

Paid placements

Paid links, if any appear, carry a clear sponsored label. We also mark them nofollow, so search engines know they are not editorial links. Ordinary links in the guides are chosen because they are useful, not because anyone paid for them.

What we do not accept

We do not accept payment for reviews, rankings or endorsements. When a guide mentions a product or a method, it is there because it is relevant, not because someone paid for it. Payment cannot remove an honest critical remark either.

Your side of the arrangement

Seeing ads is the price of a free bipolar test; we aim to place them so that they do not interfere with your work. Should an ad look misleading or inappropriate, tell us which page it appeared on and what it showed; we will pass the report to the ad network. You are free to use an ad blocker; the bipolar test keeps working either way.
