Diversity & Inclusion Policy

At GizTimes, we recognize that technology is not neutral; it is a powerful force that can either bridge or widen social gaps. Our mission is to cover the digital world in a way that reflects the diverse global community of developers, creators, and users. We are committed to fostering an inclusive environment—both within our newsroom and throughout our coverage of the tech industry.

1. Editorial Commitment

We strive to produce tech journalism that is representative of the diverse world we live in.

  • Amplifying Underrepresented Voices: We actively seek to interview and feature experts from underrepresented communities, including women in STEM, LGBTQ+ developers, and innovators from the Global South.

  • Equitable Coverage: We are committed to covering “Tech for Good,” including accessible design, digital literacy initiatives, and innovations that serve people with disabilities.

  • Bias Mitigation: Drawing on our founder’s expertisede, our editorial team is trained to identify and eliminate algorithmic bias or harmful stereotypes in our reporting and imagery.

2. Workplace Diversity

We believe that a newsroom with varied perspectives produces deeper, more analytical journalism.

  • Equal Opportunity: GizTimes is an equal opportunity employer. We do not discriminate based on race, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, caste, or disability status.

  • Global Perspectives: When collaborating with freelance researchers or contributors, we prioritize diverse backgrounds to ensure our analysis of digital culture is multifaceted and globally relevant.

  • Safe Environment: We maintain a zero-tolerance policy for harassment or discrimination within our digital newsroom. Every contributor must feel safe and valued.

3. Digital Accessibility

Consistent with our commitment to inclusion, we strive to make GizTimes accessible to all users.

  • Web Standards: We work toward adhering to Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) to ensure our site is navigable for those using screen readers or assistive tech.

  • Technical Clarity: We aim to provide descriptive “Alt Text” for all hardware diagrams and technical charts.

  • Multi-Format Content: Where possible, we provide transcripts for our technical podcasts and captions for our original video documentaries.

4. Community Standards

We expect our readers to help us maintain an inclusive ecosystem. Our Community Guidelines strictly prohibit hate speech, sexism, and digital harassment in our comment sections. We proactively moderate these spaces to protect the dignity of our community members.

5. Accountability & Feedback

Diversity and inclusion is an evolving process, especially in the rapidly shifting tech sector. We welcome feedback from our readers and peers to help us improve our efforts.
