Editorial & accuracy policy

Our standards

The rules we hold ourselves to so you can trust what you read here.

Sourcing

Every obligation figure must trace to a primary, authoritative source — typically a government agency or regulator. We do not source factual claims from law-firm marketing, aggregators, or other secondary commentary. The exact source excerpt is shown alongside each claim.

Accuracy & “we don't know”

We never publish an invented value. When a figure cannot be bound to an authoritative source, we mark it “not yet verified” rather than guess. Legal-obligation claims additionally pass a human review before being presented as definitive. See how we verify.

Updates & freshness

Claims are timestamped with a last-verified date and re-checked on a schedule. When a source changes, the page is updated and the affected claim is re-reviewed. Stale claims are flagged, not silently served.

Corrections

If you believe a figure is wrong or outdated, email [email protected]. We verify against the primary source and, if confirmed, correct the page and note the change in its verification log.

Independence

Rankings of which topics we cover are driven by measured public demand and source availability — not by who pays us. Any paid “done-for-you” service is clearly labeled and separate from the factual content, which is free and identically sourced regardless of whether you buy anything.
