Editorial policy

Authentic Living Guide aims to make thoughtful, fair-minded reading from subjects that often attract sweeping promises. We write with curiosity, show the limits of a claim and treat readers as people capable of deciding for themselves.

Accuracy and care

We check factual statements against suitable sources and take care not to present opinion as established fact. Where a subject is uncertain, personal or open to interpretation, the wording should make that clear. We avoid claims that a particular lifestyle choice will guarantee a result for every reader.

Independence and disclosure

Editorial decisions are made for reader relevance, not as a promise of favourable coverage. Paid placements, sponsored material and other partner content are clearly labelled so readers can distinguish it from independent editorial work. A partnership does not turn a commercial message into an editorial endorsement.

Corrections

If a reader spots a factual error or a misleading passage, they can send details through the Contact page. We review correction requests and, when a change is warranted, amend the relevant text and make the correction clear to readers.

Illustrations

Some illustrations may be generated with artificial intelligence. Images are visual aids, not evidence of a real person, event or place; where relevant, their illustrative nature is made clear.
