Ocado Customer Reviews Policy
At Ocado, we love hearing what you think! Your honest feedback helps thousands of other customers decide what to buy and helps us improve our products. Thank you for taking the time to share your experiences.
To make sure our reviews are helpful, trustworthy, and fair for everyone, we have a few simple guidelines.

| Reviews that contain an accurate description of the product's quality, taste, or performance | Reviews for products you have not purchased from us |
| Reviews that focus only on the product itself | Content that is not relevant to the product itself |
| Reviews that disclose any incentive you have received from us | Content that includes information referencing third party websites or contact information |

Incentivised Reviews

Your review must clearly state that it is an incentivised review or that the product was provided to you free of charge in exchange for your honest opinion. No other form of incentivised review is permitted.
You may not submit a review for which you were incentivised or compensated by any third party.
