Who writes this, and where do the numbers come from?

The articles, city pages and help pages on stamly.net are written by the team that makes Stamly at Inovix AS (org. no. 938 650 330, Karl Johans gate 25, 0159 Oslo). They are the same people who build the appointment book and the apps, and who set up the salons that start using Stamly.

That is why the author is given as “Stamly”. We do not put the name of a person who does not exist, and we do not borrow titles we do not have. When a hairdresser or another professional has read through an article, their name is shown there, with their consent.

Stamly is a booking system that salons pay for. When we write about booking systems, we are writing about a market we are part of. We say so plainly, so you can read the advice with that in mind.

• What we write about Stamly must be true today. Features that have not been built are not mentioned.
• When we compare with other providers, we use what they say on their own websites, with a link and the date we checked. If it is not public, we say so instead of guessing.
• We also say what Stamly does not do, for example that the customer pays in the salon.

The numbers we use come from places you can check yourself:

• The hairdressers in each city on the city pages (in Norwegian) come from the Central Coordinating Register for Legal Entities at the Brønnøysund Register Centre (data.brreg.no), industry code 96.210 Hairdressing and barbering. We only store counts and street names, never the names of businesses or people. The date the numbers were fetched is shown below them.
• Rules and obligations, such as VAT, till systems and cancellations, are linked to the Norwegian Tax Administration, the Brønnøysund Register Centre, the Norwegian Consumer Council and other public sources.
• Other salons’ prices, such as what a haircut costs, are examples from public price lists, with a link and a date. They are not averages, and we do not call them that.
• Stamly’s prices come from the same place as the invoice the salon receives, so they are the same everywhere on the site.

Every article and city page shows the date of its last significant change. If a price or a rule changes, we correct the text and set a new date. The numbers from the register are fetched again when the city pages are updated.
