Welcome to Scryve (click on any of the highlighted words or phrases for more detailed explanations)
Our website provides a resource for environmentally and socially aware internet browsing. You can search our 3500 company profiles for any company rating using either the search link at the top of the page or the text box in the corner of the screen. We also have a browser tool that provides a simple way of making quick informed decisions about companies and websites that you would like to use. The tool shows a responsibility rating for each
site you visit for which we have a company profile. If you like that rating,
then keep using the site. If you don't like the rating, then click on it,
and we'll show you why it's rated that way and a list of alternatives with
(hopefully) better ratings. Quick How To
Here's how it all works: we have company profiles for every company
that we rate. Each of these pages is broken into two
areas, Environment and Community. Each area is then a simple overview of an organization's
ideals and behavior in its industry. Each area includes the most important positive and negative
aspects of their policies and records.
Our company profiles come from a number of places. Our seed data, our
initial set of profiles, came from one of the best
socially responsible investment companies in the world. We have simplified
their research into our two areas (environment and community). The rest of
our profiles have come from individuals who contribute their time and research
to building the profile database. These people do the research, find the
references, and monitor the profiles to ensure that the content is accurate
and clear (If you would like to be one of these people, sign

Once a company profile is up, then the rating process begins. The
environment and community descriptions are linked to
ratings. When visitors have read the descriptions, they can then rate the
behavior of an organization with respect to the global community and to the
environment. We aggregate these ratings to create the overall rating for
that company.
This overall rating is the one you receive in the top right corner
of your screen informing you of the record for the
company whose site you are using. Then you decide whether you want to continue
using their site, or you want to find an alternative.
