Readers should be able to tell the difference between editorial coverage and paid promotion. This policy describes the standards for commercial material on 380 Daily.
Paid placement
Advertisements, sponsored articles and paid directory placements must be clearly labeled where they appear. Payment must not be presented as an independent quality ranking or verification badge. A sponsor must not be allowed to remove a material factual finding simply because it is unfavorable.
Affiliate links and benefits
If 380 Daily may earn a commission from a link, that relationship must be disclosed near the relevant recommendation or link. Paid and affiliate links should also use the appropriate sponsored-link markup. Complimentary products, admission or other benefits that could affect a review must be disclosed in the article.
Ordinary business links
A link to a local business, public price page or booking service is not by itself a paid placement. Listings help readers compare options and verify details. They do not constitute an inspection, guarantee of quality, licensing verification or promise of availability.
Editorial choices
Coverage should follow reader relevance and evidence. Commercial relationships must not determine the factual treatment of public projects, government decisions or schools. Distinguish an advertised claim from an independently supported fact.
