Ranking integrity
Atlas's commercial-independence policy, in plain terms: how rankings are produced and why commercial relationships cannot change them.
Rankings are calculated, never sold
Every Atlas ranking is calculated from structured, source-backed data. Rankings are never sold, and there is no way for an operator to pay for a higher position. Atlas does not offer, and will not offer, paid placement as a scoring input.
Affiliate relationships cannot override scoring
Commercial relationships — including any future affiliate links — are strictly separated from scoring. Affiliate availability is not a ranking input and cannot override the calculated result. See the affiliate disclosure for the current status (no live affiliate links for Brazil).
Sources, confidence, and review status decide the result
Scores come from structured dimensions with fixed weights. Every important fact should have a source, a verification date, and a confidence level; where evidence is missing, Atlas uses a conservative value and records the gap. How this works is described on the methodology page.
Brazil recommendations remain disabled
For Brazil, commercial recommendations are disabled while the data is under review. Atlas scores are shown as “em revisão” (under review); “authorized” never means “endorsed” or “safe”, and there are no affiliate links. Atlas is not a gambling operator.
