Transparency alternatives to Refiner
Other Surveys and forms vendors we measure, sorted by how much we found at them and not at Refiner. This is a comparison of disclosure, not of features or fitness.
12 shown of 48 that differ from Refiner on at least one criterion we measured for both. Public transparency score, not a product or security rating.
Refiner has 6 gaps in what we could measure: Subprocessor list, Status page with history, Certifications named, Uptime SLA with a figure, No third-party tracking before consent, security.txt (RFC 9116). The column “Found there, not found at Refiner” is the one that closes them.

Only criteria we could measure for both are counted. Where we could measure one and not the other, the row is silent: that would be a statement about our measurement, not about either vendor. Every single result with its source is on the two profiles.
