TRUST SYSTEM · PUBLIC RULES
Accurate, fair, useful—and explicit about uncertainty
These standards govern how BYBI selects claims, evaluates evidence, assigns credit, manages conflicts and corrects the record.
Core commitments
The rules behind the publication
Every format may look different, but the underlying obligations remain the same.
High-stakes subjects
Extra scrutiny where harm is greater
Financial, legal, medical, safety and investment claims require appropriately qualified review before publication when the conclusion could materially influence action.
BYBI does not present general educational material as personalised professional advice.
AI and automation
Tools may assist; humans remain accountable
Automation may support discovery, transcription, organisation or analysis. It does not receive a byline, replace source verification or become the final authority for a published verdict.
Editors remain responsible for accuracy, attribution and the decision to publish.
Commercial independence
Revenue does not buy a conclusion
Affiliate links, advertising, sponsorships, review access and other material relationships must be disclosed where relevant. Commercial partners do not receive undisclosed control over findings.
Fair reply
Subjects can address material findings
Where practical and proportionate, people and organisations receive a reasonable opportunity to clarify evidence or respond before a consequential conclusion is frozen.
Canonical ownership
One claim, one source of truth
Every substantive claim should have one canonical Claim File or decision page. Entity hubs, comparisons, videos and summaries point back to that record so revisions propagate instead of leaving contradictory copies across the site.
