Editorial Policy
We explain the evidence behind our broker research, who is responsible for it, and how we handle corrections and commercial relationships.
- Editorial responsibility
- Verification
Broker facts checked against sources
- Corrections
Confirmed errors corrected
RinTrade may earn compensation when you follow an affiliate link and complete a qualifying action. This does not change our testing methods, measurements, or data-driven rankings.
Editorial purpose and accountability
RinTrade helps readers assess brokers using evidence and clearly explained analysis. We disclose commercial relationships separately from our findings.
We aim for accuracy and explain the limits of the available evidence.
Facts, analysis, and opinion
A broker fact should be traceable to suitable evidence. A calculation should state its inputs and rule. An editorial judgement should be recognisable as analysis rather than presented as an official broker fact.
When those categories overlap, the page should explain the basis of the conclusion and avoid language that is stronger than the evidence.
Source and citation standards
Regulator records, legal documents, official broker material, and first-hand test data are preferred for claims they directly support. Secondary sources can add context or identify questions, but they do not automatically verify a high-risk broker claim.
Copied articles, search snippets, and affiliate marketing copy are not treated as factual evidence. We record when sources were checked and recheck facts that can change when the source or product changes.
Authorship and review responsibility
Sakkarin Grinara is responsible for RinTrade's current editorial work. The author profile describes relevant background and selected research. We identify an independent second-person review only when one has taken place.
A future contributor must meet the same source, disclosure, and accountability rules before their work is published.
How AI may assist the work
AI tools may help organise research, draft copy, translate, or support technical work. AI output is not evidence and cannot approve publication. The named author or editor remains responsible for checking the facts and the published page.
AI-assisted copy must pass the same checks as manually drafted copy. It must not invent a broker fact, score, source, test result, credential, or first-hand experience.
Affiliate relationships and sponsored content
RinTrade may receive compensation from a broker when a reader follows an eligible affiliate link and completes a qualifying action. Compensation supports the work but is not an evidence source and does not change the methodology, account tested, measurement, or data-driven order.
The footer of every RinTrade page discloses these affiliate relationships. A commercial partner cannot buy a favourable conclusion or prevent a supported criticism. Any sponsored placement, if used, must be clearly labelled and kept separate from editorial rankings.
Corrections and material updates
When we confirm a factual error, we correct the underlying research and, where practical, all affected public pages. A material correction should be explained on the page or reflected in its updated date. Cosmetic edits do not need a correction notice.
To report a factual error, send the following through our Contact page. Do not include broker passwords, identity documents, or account credentials.
- The URL of the affected page.
- The exact wording or value you believe is wrong, and why.
- The strongest supporting source you can provide.
Broker right of reply
A broker may point out a factual error, provide a more current official source, or explain the entity and product scope that applies. RinTrade reviews the evidence and corrects supported errors.
A reply does not give a broker editorial approval, a guaranteed change, removal of accurate criticism, or access to unpublished research.
Conflicts of interest
Material personal, financial, employment, or commercial relationships that could reasonably affect how readers interpret a conclusion should be disclosed. If a conflict cannot be managed transparently, the affected work should not be published as an independent editorial conclusion.
Page dates and revision transparency
The Updated date shows when the page's content, evidence, or methodology last materially changed. Republishing, design changes, wording polish, and title or description edits do not change it. Rankings also show the date the data was tested.
