12. Disclaimer regarding reviews and ratings

The Website is an online directory specializing in marketing and advertising agencies and professionals that meet the requirement of having a majority of positive reviews on Google Maps. The reviews, ratings, and opinions displayed in connection with the agencies and professionals listed in our directory have been written by third parties entirely unrelated to Strategic and Marketing and to this website.

These reviews and ratings are subsequently reviewed and verified by Google in accordance with its own content moderation policies and procedures. Strategic and Marketing does not exercise any editorial control over the content of such reviews, does not verify its truthfulness, and is not responsible for the opinions, comments, or ratings expressed by Google Maps users.

The user acknowledges and accepts that the reviews displayed reflect only the experiences and personal opinions of those who wrote them, and that these may not be representative of the general experience of all clients of the listed marketing agencies and professionals.

For more information about user-generated content on Google Maps and the moderation policies applied, users can consult Google's official information at the following link: https://support.google.com/contributionpolicy/answer/7422880?hl=en

If a user considers that a review is inaccurate, inappropriate, or violates Google's policies, they should contact Google Maps directly to request its review or removal, since the Website has no ability to modify or delete such content.

The Website acts solely as an aggregator of public information available on Google Maps, without exercising editorial control over the reviews or the information of the listed agencies and professionals. We do not validate or verify the truthfulness of the experiences contained in the reviews.

Procedure for agencies: Agency managers and marketing professionals who wish to request changes to their information or consider that any data is inaccurate can contact us at info@strategicandmarketing.com. However, for changes related to reviews and ratings, they should contact Google Maps directly.

13. Selection and inclusion criteria for agencies and professionals

In accordance with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission's guides concerning the use of endorsements and testimonials in advertising (16 CFR Part 255), this directory is transparent about how it operates.

How agencies are selected

The agencies and professionals included in the directory are identified automatically by an artificial intelligence algorithm that analyzes publicly available information on Google Maps. The system includes only those businesses that meet the following minimum requirement:

  • An average rating of 4 stars or higher on Google Maps at the time of selection or at each periodic review of the directory.

This process is automatic, free for the agency, and requires no action on their part.

Manual inclusion request

Agencies that wish to be included without waiting for the automatic process can request their listing manually. This service involves the payment of a fee that exclusively compensates the work of reviewing, verifying, and manually adding the profile by the directory team.

The manual inclusion fee is not advertising in nature and does not give the agency any advantage in terms of position, visibility, or visual treatment compared to those added automatically. In any case, the request remains subject to the same minimum requirement of 4 stars on Google Maps.

Factors that determine the position in the results

The position of each agency is determined automatically by the algorithm, regardless of the way it was included, weighing the following factors:

  • Business prominence: the agency's relevance and recognition in its sector or geographic area, assessed based on available public indicators.
  • Time in the directory: how long the agency has been listed. Greater seniority contributes positively to the position.
  • Number of reviews on Google Maps: the more verified reviews, the greater the weight in the ranking.
  • Average rating on Google Maps: higher scores generally translate into better positions.

Having paid a manual inclusion fee does not influence any of these factors or the position the agency occupies in the results.

14. Third-party information and limitation of liability regarding content

The Website acts merely as an intermediary and aggregator of publicly available information on Google Maps and other public sources. Strategic and Marketing does not verify, validate, or guarantee:

  • The accuracy of the information displayed about the agencies and professionals
  • The currency of the data (hours, services, location, etc.)
  • The completeness of the information provided
  • The validity of licenses, authorizations, or professional credentials
  • The quality of the marketing services offered

Users should:

  • Verify for themselves any information before making business decisions
  • Contact the agencies directly to confirm services, hours, and availability
  • Hire qualified professionals for decisions related to their marketing strategy

15. Information update policy

The information displayed on the Website comes from public sources and may not reflect recent changes in the listed agencies and professionals. Strategic and Marketing does not guarantee the constant updating of the information and strongly recommends that users verify directly with the agencies:

  • Business hours
  • Available services
  • Prices and rates
  • Availability
  • Contact methods
  • Exact location

16. Use of the information for commercial purposes
