Diversity Policy
Swiftbruxe is an unbiased and impartial organization that prioritizes the public interest. Our aim is to deliver high-quality content that educates, informs, and entertains. We work independently from any government or political-related entity. Our content is not influenced by external funding, granting our creators the freedom to produce authentic and engaging content. Swiftbruxe is dedicated to upholding journalistic integrity, and we regularly review our editorial guidelines to ensure that our standards are consistently maintained. Publishing these guidelines demonstrates our commitment to transparency with our readers.
Editorial Standards and Ethics
Swiftbruxe is committed to delivering the highest editorial standards, ensuring fairness, accuracy, and professionalism in all our content. Our goal is to report stories that matter to our audience, reflecting a diversity of opinions and perspectives. We remain unbiased and avoid any external influences that could compromise our integrity. We aim to provide original, insightful content that informs and engages our audience without misleading or misinforming them. In instances where there could be a potential conflict of interest, a disclaimer will be added to the content.
Hate Speech and Bullying
Swiftbruxe content must never incite hatred or discrimination based on race, ethnicity, religion, disability, age, nationality, veteran status, sexual orientation, gender, or identity. We do not allow content that harasses, intimidates, or bullies individuals.
Safety and Inappropriate Content
Swiftbruxe will not publish content that promotes harm to oneself or others, contains explicit sexual content, or promotes illegal activity. We do not tolerate the distribution of harmful software or content that violates the legal rights of others.
Copyright
Swiftbruxe ensures that all content published respects the rights of third parties, including copyright, trademark, privacy, and publicity rights. We strive to balance the right to privacy with the public's right to be informed and will justify any intrusion into an individual's privacy only if it is outweighed by public interest.
When we use content from social media or public websites, we are mindful of the original intent and audience of that content. Users who post material on social media have a reduced expectation of privacy, especially when they are aware of the potential consequences of sharing such information publicly.
Verification / Fact Checking Policy
Swiftbruxe takes pride in ensuring accuracy and thorough fact-checking in our content. Our editorial team follows a rigorous process to validate the authenticity of information and corroborate claims made in articles. We actively differentiate between fact, rumor, and opinion, ensuring our content is clear and reliable. We do not tolerate the spread of disinformation, misinformation, or mal-information.
Unnamed Sources Policy
Whenever possible, Swiftbruxe attributes all information to named sources. However, in cases where information from confidential sources is credible and significant to our audience, we may use it while protecting the source’s identity. Editors will follow legal and ethical guidelines to safeguard confidential sources.
Corrections Policy
Swiftbruxe is committed to correcting errors as quickly as possible. Depending on the nature of the mistake, corrections may involve a simple edit or an editor's note. In severe cases, content may be removed if found erroneous.
Actionable Feedback Policy
At Swiftbruxe, we are open to feedback and committed to learning from our mistakes. If you have any suggestions, criticisms, or compliments, please contact us at info@swiftbruxe.com, and we will respond promptly.
