Editorial Policy

At GizTimes, our mission is to provide the global tech community with accurate, timely, and sociologically grounded news. We hold our writers, researchers, and contributors to the highest standards of technical journalism, ensuring our content serves as a reliable guide in an increasingly complex digital world.

1. Accuracy and Human Verification

Trust is the cornerstone of our relationship with our readers. We are committed to publishing information that is deeply researched and rigorously verified.

  • Technical Verification: Before publication, all hardware specifications, software versioning, and performance benchmarks are cross-referenced with primary developer documentation or official manufacturer data.

  • Anti-Clickbait Mandate: Our headlines must accurately reflect the technical reality of the story. We strictly prohibit misleading titles or sensationalized “leaks” that manufacture traffic at the expense of truth.

  • Human-First Content: While we utilize digital tools for data organization, every article on GizTimes is authored and reviewed by human experts to ensure contextual accuracy and ethical depth.

2. Sourcing and Technical Attribution

We believe in transparency regarding the origins of our information.

  • Primary Sourcing: We prioritize information obtained directly from product launches, whitepapers, and interviews with industry leads.

  • Proper Attribution: If we reference technical news broken by another outlet, we clearly cite the source and provide a direct link to the original report.

  • Anonymous Sources: We avoid anonymous sourcing unless a source’s safety or employment is at risk. All such sources must be vetted by the Editor-in-Chief, and their credibility must be established before publication.

3. Editorial Independence

GizTimes is a self-funded, independent news organization.

  • No Pay-for-Play: We do not accept payment, hardware “gifts,” or incentives in exchange for favorable product reviews or coverage.

  • Advertising Separation: Our editorial team operates with total autonomy from our business and SEO teams. Advertisers and affiliate partners have no influence over our critical analysis or investigative directions.

4. Artificial Intelligence (AI) Policy

In an era of automated content, GizTimes maintains a “Human-in-the-Loop” philosophy.

  • AI as a Tool, Not a Creator: AI may assist in technical data aggregation or spell-checking, but it never replaces the analytical voice of our journalists.

  • Transparency: Any image used that is AI-generated for illustrative purposes will be clearly labeled as “AI-Generated Illustration”.

  • No Auto-Publishing: We prohibit the use of AI to automatically generate and publish news stories without comprehensive human review and fact-checking.

5. Conflict of Interest

Our contributors must disclose any financial or personal ties to the tech companies they cover.

  • Recusal: A writer cannot report on a company or startup in which they hold a financial stake or have a prior professional conflict.

  • Integrity: Writers are prohibited from utilizing non-public information gained during their reporting to engage in stock trading or personal gain.

6. Social and Community Responsibility

Drawing on our founder’s sociological expertise, we promote a tech industry that is inclusive and equitable. We have zero tolerance for content that promotes digital harassment, discrimination, or hate speech within our articles or community forums.

7. Accountability

We are accountable to our readers and the broader tech community. If you believe we have violated these policies, we encourage you to contact our editorial board.
