Transparency Charter

Last updated: March 2026

We exist to help patients make safer, more informed surgery decisions in South Korea through independent research.

1. Client-First Compensation

We are paid only by clients. We do not accept referral fees, commissions, kickbacks, or sponsored placements from clinics.

2. No Pay-to-Play Rankings

No clinic can buy placement in our reports. Ever.

3. Independent Methodology

Our reports are based on structured analysis of public and verified sources, powered by AI analysis and human research across Korean and English platforms.

4. Source Integrity

We evaluate source credibility, consistency across platforms, and known bias risks — including incentivized reviews and reputation manipulation signals.

5. Clear Scope

We provide research — not medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment recommendations. The decision is yours.

6. Conflict Disclosure

If any potential conflict exists, we disclose it immediately and in writing.

7. Corrections Policy

If we identify a material error in a report, we issue a correction promptly.

8. Privacy Commitment

Client information is kept confidential. We do not share your data with clinics, providers, or third parties. Our research process is designed to protect your identity — we never need to tell a clinic we’re researching them on your behalf.
