Independence Disclosure

Payroll Systems Desk is an independent informational publication.

It is not:

  • Payroll Relief;
  • AccountantsWorld;
  • IRIS Software Group;
  • an authorized Payroll Relief login portal;
  • an employee payroll provider;
  • a payroll-processing firm acting on behalf of Payroll Relief.

Payroll Relief, AccountantsWorld, IRIS and other company or product names discussed on this website may be trademarks of their respective owners.

References to those names are used to identify the subject of editorial reporting and educational guides.

When we link to a company-controlled website or sign-in service, the link should be labeled clearly—for example:

Open the official Payroll Relief resource — external site

rather than:

The site’s branding, favicon, page design and calls to action should remain visually distinct from the companies being covered.

Google’s current Ads trademark rules specifically emphasize whether trademark use is confusing or misleading and recognize informational landing pages as a distinct legitimate category.
