Advertising Standards

Advertising can support access, but it cannot steer the library.

OrthoVellum may use advertising to support educational access, but advertising does not control clinical material, correction decisions, topic selection, or educational conclusions.

Editorial independence

Advertising does not determine topic selection, clinical recommendations, publication timing, or correction decisions.

Clear separation

Advertisements are presented separately from educational content and are not written to imitate clinical guidance, references, or exam answers.

No sponsored medical claims

OrthoVellum does not sell sponsored clinical recommendations or paid placement inside educational conclusions, treatment pathways, or evidence summaries.

Editorial Boundary

Advertising is separate from source-backed education

Where educational decisions live

Educational pages are written and updated under the editorial process described on the content methodology and editorial policy pages.

If you believe an advertisement is misleading, inappropriate, or visually confusing, contact support@orthovellum.com and include the page URL, date, and a screenshot if available.
