An Independent Guide to Digital Privacy Tools
Xelvoraq Digital Review is an editorial publication focused on helping everyday Chrome users understand the privacy and security tools available to them.
We exist because the digital privacy landscape can be confusing. There are dozens of browser extensions claiming to protect your privacy, with marketing copy that is often difficult to evaluate without a technical background. Our aim is to present this information in plain language, based on publicly available facts, without hype or urgency.
We are not a consumer watchdog or a certifying body. We do not conduct independent technical audits or laboratory testing. Our comparisons are based on research into publicly available product documentation, official feature descriptions, and general understanding of how these tools work. We aim to present that information clearly and in a way that supports informed decision-making.
Our focus is specifically on Chrome — the world's most widely used browser — on both mobile and desktop platforms. We recognise that most browsing today happens on phones, and that privacy tools for mobile Chrome remain less well-understood than their desktop equivalents.
What We Stand For
-
Honesty
We describe tools as they are, based on available evidence. We do not inflate capabilities or omit significant limitations to make an affiliate product look better.
-
Transparency about commercial relationships
We disclose affiliate relationships prominently and consistently. When we earn a commission from a link, we say so. Our affiliate arrangements do not determine what tools we cover or how we describe them.
-
Editorial independence
Our content is written by our editorial team and is not supplied, approved, or funded by the companies whose tools we discuss. We are not paid to write positive reviews.
-
Appropriate scope
We cover what we know well. Where a question falls outside our research or requires professional expertise — legal, medical, or technical — we say so and do not pretend to authority we do not have.
-
No fabricated claims
We do not use invented testimonials, fake metrics, or unverifiable statistics. All claims are sourced from publicly available information or clearly described as general expectations.
How This Site Is Funded
Xelvoraq Digital Review is funded through affiliate commissions. When a reader clicks on a link to a product we have reviewed and makes a purchase, we may earn a small commission. This does not change the price you pay.
We are transparent about which links are affiliate links. You will see them labelled or accompanied by a disclosure note throughout the site. If a product has an affiliate relationship, we note it. If it does not, we also note it.
We believe this model is compatible with honest, reader-first content. The obligation of a site like ours is to give readers useful information — not to funnel clicks regardless of quality. Affiliate income depends on readers making purchases, and readers make purchases when they trust what they read.
This site is operated by MediaBonas OÜ, registered in Estonia. Our contact details and legal information are available in the footer of every page.
