Disclosure & Editorial Policy

We make money in ways that are visible to you. This page explains exactly how.

Not financial advice

Ledger & Line publishes general financial journalism and education. Nothing here is investment, legal, or tax advice, or an offer to buy or sell any security. Do your own research.

Sponsored content

We accept a limited number of sponsored placements. Every sponsored article is labeled with a visible "Paid Partnership" disclosure banner that names the sponsor and states plainly that we were compensated. We never disguise paid content as independent reporting.

All outbound links to a sponsor are tagged rel="sponsored", in line with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission's endorsement guides and search-engine webmaster guidance. Sponsored links do not pass our editorial endorsement.

Sponsorship buys placement and our editorial care — not a guarantee of praise. We decline pitches that are misleading, that promote unregistered securities, or that we would not stand behind in front of a reader. To inquire, see our media kit or email [email protected].

Editorial independence

Our non-sponsored coverage is produced independently. Advertisers and sponsors have no influence over what we cover or what we conclude in editorial pieces, and no advance access to unpublished editorial work about them.

Corrections

We correct errors. If you spot one, email [email protected] and we will fix it and note the change.
