OUR STANDARDS
Editorial policy
Trust is a process, not a label. Our public content must make its evidence, review, and limits inspectable.
Publication requires human review
Content moves through Draft, In Review, Approved, Published, Needs Update, and Archived. A published label alone is insufficient: a named reviewer, review date, publication date, and explicit human approval record are required before public access, search inclusion, or sitemap inclusion.
Manuscripts and publication
Manuscripts and outlines do not establish human approval or publication. Public article bodies require human review and deliberate publication of the specific revision; drafts remain excluded from public readers, search, and sitemap. Source verification and technical checks do not establish direct product testing.
Evidence and uncertainty
Use primary documents for rights, fees, eligibility, and material factual claims. Separate official verified evidence, direct tests, provider claims, third-party reporting, unverified statements, and unknowns. A source is evidence for a specific statement, not universal validation of a product.
AI-assisted work
AI may help structure, draft, translate, or check consistency. It cannot provide the human approval required to publish financial education or product research. Draft authorship is disclosed in the content record.
Corrections and updates
Material corrections must identify the affected statement, evidence, review owner, and date. Changed eligibility, fees, or legal structure trigger re-verification. An outdated record must be marked for update or withdrawn rather than silently presented as current.
Commercial relationships
No affiliate relationship is implied by an outbound source link. Any future commercial relationship must be disclosed next to the relevant product and cannot replace evidence or determine an undisclosed ranking. No financial product rankings are published in this initial release.
