Editorial Policy

Last updated: December 2024

At Marginade, we are committed to producing high-quality, trustworthy content about careers and professional development. This policy outlines our editorial standards and practices.

Independence and Integrity

Our editorial team operates independently from our advertising and business teams. Editorial decisions are based on what serves our readers, not what serves advertisers or sponsors.

We do not accept payment for coverage. We do not publish sponsored content disguised as editorial. Any sponsored or promotional content is clearly labeled as such.

Accuracy and Verification

We strive for accuracy in everything we publish. Before publication:

  • Facts are verified against primary sources where possible
  • Statistics and data points are traced to their original sources
  • Claims about trends or market conditions are researched and contextualized
  • Quotes and interviews are accurately represented

When we make mistakes, we correct them promptly and transparently. Significant corrections are noted at the bottom of the article with the date of correction.

Sourcing and Attribution

We attribute information to its source. When we reference research, reports, or expert opinions, we link to the original source whenever possible.

We distinguish between:

  • Reporting — Information gathered through research, interviews, and analysis
  • Analysis — Interpretation of reported information with clear reasoning
  • Opinion — Clearly labeled perspectives and recommendations

Conflicts of Interest

Writers and editors disclose any personal or financial interests that could influence their work. We do not write about companies where we hold significant investments or have employment relationships.

If we cover a topic related to an advertiser or partner, the relationship is disclosed in the article.

AI and Automation

Our articles are written by humans. We do not use AI to generate article content. We may use AI tools for research assistance, transcription, or editing support, but final editorial decisions and writing are human-driven.

Corrections

To request a correction, email [email protected] with:

  • The article URL
  • The specific error
  • Documentation supporting the correction

We review all correction requests within 48 hours and make corrections as warranted.

Feedback

We welcome feedback on our editorial practices. Contact us at [email protected].
