Our Publishing Policy

We hold ourselves to the same standard we ask of others.

Last updated: March 27, 2026

Publishing Policy exists to help every entity that publishes content define and uphold their standards. We believe the best way to prove that commitment is to practice it ourselves.

Our Commitments

  • Accuracy — Every claim we make about the platform, its features, and its data practices is verified against the current state of the codebase and infrastructure. If we discover an inaccuracy, we correct it and note the change.
  • Transparency — We disclose what data we collect, what tools run on this site, and how the platform works. Our legal pages are written in plain language, not to obscure.
  • Corrections — When we get something wrong, we fix it promptly. Changes to our policies are tracked in our public GitHub repository, providing a full version history of every revision.
  • Independence — Our publishing standards are not influenced by advertisers, sponsors, or outside commercial interests. We do not accept advertising on this platform.
  • Accountability — We identify who operates this service, provide clear contact information, and respond to questions about our practices.

Our Full Policy

We maintain a publishing policy built on the same framework we provide to others. Our full policy is published on this platform:

Our publishing policy will be published here once the policy builder is ready for self-assessment. We are committed to eating our own dog food — the first organization to create a policy using the platform will be Publishing Policy itself.
