Evidence freshness

Each kind of check has its own clock and its own threshold. A price ages in weeks and a feature list in months; sharing one date between them would let an old review pass for a recent check.

What remains unverified

  • No workflow was run inside the product. Everything here comes from the vendor's documentation and public pages.
  • Data handling and the privacy policy were not independently verified during this research cycle. We therefore publish no conclusion about security or where data is stored.
  • Export terms and the real cost of leaving are not on this record: we have not tested them.
  • The price has been read once only. A single observation says nothing about where the price is heading.
