Code of Ethics

At Indifact News Code of Ethics, ethical journalism is the foundation of everything we publish. Our responsibility is not only to report news, but to do so in a manner that is fair, accurate, transparent, and respectful of the public trust. This Code of Ethics outlines the principles that guide our editorial decisions, reporting practices, and relationships with readers, sources, and partners.

Commitment to Accuracy and Truth

Indifact News is committed to reporting information that is factual, verified, and based on credible sources. We make every reasonable effort to confirm the accuracy of facts before publication. When errors occur, we acknowledge them promptly and correct them transparently. Accuracy is never sacrificed for speed, attention, or engagement.

Editorial Independence

Our newsroom operates with complete editorial independence. Editorial decisions are made without influence from advertisers, sponsors, political entities, or external interests. Financial or commercial relationships do not determine how stories are reported or presented. Sponsored content, advertorials, and partnerships are clearly disclosed and separated from independent editorial reporting.

Fairness and Balance

We strive to present news in a fair, balanced, and impartial manner. Multiple perspectives are considered wherever possible, particularly on issues of public importance. Indifact News avoids biased language, misleading headlines, and content that may distort facts or misrepresent individuals, organizations, or communities.

Accountability and Transparency

Indifact News believes accountability is essential to maintaining reader trust. We are transparent about our sources whenever possible and clearly distinguish between factual reporting, analysis, and opinion. Readers are encouraged to reach out with feedback, corrections, or concerns, and we take such communication seriously.

Respect for Privacy and Human Dignity

We respect the privacy, dignity, and rights of individuals. Indifact News avoids unnecessary intrusion into private lives and does not publish personal information unless it is clearly in the public interest. Special care is taken when reporting on vulnerable individuals, minors, or sensitive situations.

Responsible Use of Sources

We rely on credible, identifiable sources whenever possible. Anonymous sources are used only when necessary and when the information provided is of significant public value. Such sources are vetted carefully, and anonymity is granted only with editorial approval.

Avoidance of Harm and Sensationalism

Indifact News does not publish content intended to provoke fear, hatred, or unnecessary harm. We avoid sensationalism, exaggeration, and click-driven narratives. Headlines and visuals are chosen to inform, not mislead.

Conflicts of Interest

Editorial staff, contributors, and collaborators are expected to disclose any potential conflicts of interest. Individuals with personal, financial, or professional ties to a subject are required to maintain transparency or recuse themselves from related coverage when appropriate.

Guest Content and Sponsored Material

Guest posts, sponsored articles, and branded content published on Indifact News must meet our editorial standards. While such content may be paid for, it does not override our commitment to accuracy, clarity, and ethical responsibility. Sponsored content is clearly labeled to avoid confusion with independent journalism.

Corrections and Updates

If factual inaccuracies are identified after publication, Indifact News is committed to correcting them promptly. Corrections are made in a transparent manner to ensure readers are aware of changes or updates to previously published content.

Commitment to Readers

Above all, Indifact News is accountable to its readers. Our mission is to inform, educate, and engage responsibly. We recognize the trust readers place in us and are committed to upholding ethical standards that protect that trust in every piece of content we publish.
