Editorial policy
adfuo favours the source record over the summary. Claims are traced to the body that issued them, market differences are reported as differences rather than resolved by picking one, and uncertainty is stated rather than smoothed over.
Accuracy
Reporting distinguishes primary records, direct observation, attributed statements, corroborated reporting, and structural inference. Material subjects receive a documented request for response when feasible, and missing responses are described without implying refusal.
Sources
Names, dates, product versions, ingredient lists, quoted language, regulatory citations, and brand claims are checked against current attributable sources. When something material changes, the updated date changes with it, and uncertainty is spelled out rather than smoothed over.
Editorial independence
We choose what to cover, and what to conclude, by what it is worth to the reader. No commercial relationship can buy favorable treatment or advance sign-off on an independent editorial conclusion.
Sources
Source class and claim status remain visible. Material subjects receive a response request when feasible. Anonymous sourcing is exceptional, requires the newsroom to know the source identity, and must be independently tested and explained to readers.
Updates and corrections
When a material fact is wrong, we correct it openly. Small edits that leave the meaning unchanged can go in without a formal note.
Read the corrections policyReviews
adfuo does not operate a product-review or testing program. Articles may assess documentary claims or implementation evidence, but they must not describe site-wide hands-on testing, ratings, or recommendations.
Medical disclaimer
adfuo does not provide medical or health guidance and does not claim clinical review. Any incidental public-health context must remain sourced policy reporting rather than diagnosis, treatment, or individualized advice.
