Editorial Policy

Durudam aims to make everyday information clear while helping readers judge the evidence behind it and understand its limits.

Topics and value for readers

We plan articles around real everyday questions, useful points to check and explanations that help people choose. We avoid repetitive search-driven writing, unverified trends and topics framed to create excessive anxiety. Titles and summaries must not promise more than the article delivers.

Checking sources

  • For laws, public systems, statistics and safety guidance, we prioritize current original material from the responsible bodies.
  • For health and science, we prioritize public health agencies, research papers, professional societies and reliable medical or research institutions.
  • For product and service features, prices and terms, we check official information and the conditions that actually apply. When details may change, we state when they were checked.
  • When one source cannot support a general conclusion, we compare other reliable material and explain uncertainty or the limits of applicability.
  • We place citations and reference links close to the claims they support and distinguish original wording from summaries.

Having a source does not settle every claim. We also consider who published it, when it appeared, the study design, competing interests and whether it applies to the reader’s circumstances.

Writing and review

We may use AI tools to structure articles, organize material, assist with drafts, translate or review wording. We do not treat generated sentences as established facts. Before publication, we recheck key claims and links and review the text against our editorial standards. Where the use of AI or automation matters to a reader’s assessment of the content, we provide a separate explanation as appropriate.

Publication dates and updates

The publication date marks the first public release. An update date marks a meaningful change to facts, recommendations, comparison criteria or conclusions that could affect a reader’s judgment. Technical changes such as spelling corrections, link tidying or layout adjustments may leave the update date unchanged if they do not affect the conclusions.

Time-sensitive information may also include a checked-as-of date in the article. If an older article conflicts with current official information or cannot be adequately reviewed, we may revise it, add a notice, restrict search visibility or withdraw it from public view.

Correcting errors

We correct confirmed factual errors or important omissions as promptly as practicable. Changes that could alter understanding or action are recorded through an update date or correction notice. Simple typos may be fixed without a separate notice.

To request a correction, follow the instructions on our Contact page and include the page address, the sentence concerned and a verifiable original source or supporting evidence. A submission is not automatically accepted. We review the material to decide whether and how to make a change.

Limits of health and safety information

Articles about health, nutrition and food safety provide general education, not individual diagnosis or treatment instructions. Appropriate choices can vary with age, illness, medication, pregnancy, allergies and living conditions. For symptoms or personal decisions, consult a qualified healthcare professional. In an emergency, use local emergency services.

Safety standards and product recalls can change. Before acting, check the latest information from the relevant authority and manufacturer.

Advertising, affiliates and editorial independence

Where there is a financial relationship—advertising, sponsorship, supplied products or affiliate links—we explain its nature in the content or near the link. Commercial relationships do not replace fact-checking standards or determine editorial conclusions. Compensation alone does not decide rankings or ratings.
