At iNostalgia, we are committed to maintaining the highest standards of journalistic integrity, accuracy, and ethical conduct.
Our editorial policies guide our content creation process and ensure that we deliver reliable, credible, and diverse content to our readers. The following guidelines outline our approach to corrections, ethics, standards, sources, fact-checking, diversity, and other relevant aspects:
- Corrections:
- We strive for accuracy in all our content. If an error is identified in any published material, we will promptly correct it and provide a clear explanation of the correction.
- Corrections will be visibly marked and dated, and we will maintain transparency by acknowledging the correction and offering an apology if necessary. These corrections (normally) are shown at the bottom of that article.
- Ethics:
- We adhere to the highest ethical standards in our content creation. We maintain independence from advertisers, affiliates, sponsors, and any external influences that could compromise our editorial integrity.
