Editorial independence
Commercial relationships do not automatically change provider scores. Affiliate destinations and editorial criteria are managed in separate structured records.
Evidence and attribution
Editors should link primary sources where possible, record access dates, identify limitations, and avoid claims that exceed available evidence.
Corrections
Material errors should be corrected promptly. Updated dates and revision history provide an internal audit trail.
Conflicts and gifts
Editors should disclose material conflicts and should not promise favorable coverage in exchange for payment, gifts, or access.
