Terms of use

What this site is, what it is not, and the limits of the information on it.

Last updated

These terms govern your use of https://razorandritual.com, published by Fathom & Foundry. By using the site you accept them. They were last updated on .

What this site is

An editorial publication about men's grooming products. It is funded by affiliate commissions and it sells nothing itself. Every purchase you make is a transaction with a retailer, under that retailer's terms, and we are not a party to it.

The limits of the information here

  • We have not tested any product on this site. Picks are compiled from published manufacturer specifications and scored with arithmetic printed on the page. The method, and its limits, are set out in full.
  • Specifications can be wrong or can change. Every one cites its source so you can check it. Manufacturers revise products without renaming them, and a figure correct on the date it was compiled may not be correct today.
  • Assumptions are assumptions. Shaves per blade, grams per lather, service life - all are our stated working figures, labeled as such wherever they appear, and none is a measurement.
  • Nothing here is medical advice. Pages that touch skin conditions say so and point at a doctor. Nobody involved in this site is medically qualified.
  • Prices are not shown unless they are live-verified, and a verified price older than 48 hours disappears. The price at the retailer when you click is the real one.

The content is provided as it is, without warranty. Shaving involves sharp objects and products applied to skin; you use the information here at your own risk, and you should follow the manufacturer's own instructions for anything you buy.

Affiliate relationships

Buy links on this site are affiliate links, and we may earn a commission on purchases made through them at no extra cost to you. As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases. This does not affect the order of the picks, which is computed from published axes with the working shown. The full disclosure is here.

This site links to manufacturer pages, retailer listings and other external sources so you can check what we have written. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content, their accuracy or their privacy practices.

Content and copyright

The text, scoring, arithmetic and page structure on this site are the property of Fathom & Foundry. You are welcome to quote a reasonable extract with attribution and a link. Wholesale reproduction, or reproduction without attribution, is not permitted.

Product names, brand names and trade marks belong to their respective owners and are used here for identification. Nothing on this site implies an endorsement by, or an affiliation with, any manufacturer named on it.

Acceptable use

  • Do not attempt to disrupt or gain unauthorized access to the site.
  • Do not scrape it at a rate that degrades it for other readers.
  • Do not misuse the contact form. It has a rate limit and it is not a channel for marketing.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. The date at the top of this page changes when we do, and continued use of the site after that constitutes acceptance.
