Ethics Policy
The principles that guide our journalism
Last updated: August 2026
Editorial Policies
Core Principles
SenseCentral is guided by the principles of accuracy, independence, fairness, transparency, and accountability. These principles apply to all editorial staff, contributing writers, and freelancers.
Conflicts of Interest
Staff must disclose any financial, personal, or professional relationships that could create a conflict of interest. Staff may not write about companies in which they hold financial interests. Gifts from sources are not accepted.
Independence from Advertisers
Our editorial team operates independently from our advertising and business teams. Advertisers have no influence over our coverage. We do not publish pay-to-play content without clear labeling.
Privacy
We respect the privacy of individuals, particularly private citizens. We do not publish private information without consent unless there is a clear public interest. We follow applicable privacy laws.
Diversity & Inclusion
We are committed to diverse representation in our coverage and our team. We seek out voices from underrepresented communities and avoid stereotyping.
Reporting Ethical Concerns
If you have concerns about our ethical standards, contact our editor-in-chief at ethics@sensecentral.com. All concerns are investigated seriously.
