Our information serves the reader. A commercial relationship cannot determine whether a food is classified as halal, haram or uncertain.
Evidence before claims
We identify the relevant product, ingredients, market and source. Certification claims must match the product, facility, market and certificate validity. Vegan, vegetarian, pork-free and kosher labels are not substitutes for halal certification. A missing classification does not establish that a product is haram or halal.
Uncertainty is visible
We explain material limitations and differences of opinion. Uncertain or disputed religious eligibility requires qualified review before a product can be promoted. An advertisement, subscription or payment to us does not buy religious certainty. Halal Inspector is our product name, not a certification granted by advertising payment.
Independent commercial review
Commercial publication requires an active approved agreement, a commercial approval and a different authorized editorial reviewer who did not prepare or commercially approve the content. Qualified Islamic review is additionally required when the subject calls for it. Sponsors cannot publish directly or edit classifications, comparison outcomes or organic search rankings.
Comparisons and corrections
Useful alternatives and evidence limitations must not be suppressed for a sponsor. Promotional content is visibly separate from editorial answers. We accept reports about inaccurate evidence, expired certification or misleading claims through Contact. Serious concerns may stop a promotion while reviewed; corrections follow evidence rather than payment.
When funding ends
Promotional pricing, branding, purchase links and prominence stop. Independently reviewed basic information may remain, but we do not silently rebrand advertising as editorial work. Historical funding disclosures may remain to explain provenance without an active promotional offer.
Reader information stays separate
We do not give sponsors account data, private searches, religious preferences or contact submissions. Sponsorship does not authorize third-party tracking or individual profiling. Permitted reporting is non-identifying aggregate information.
