Ethics Policy

Last Updated: 25th Nov 2025

At AwazLive, our mission is to provide accurate, transparent, and responsible journalism across fintech, crypto, finance, startups, and AI. Our Ethics Policy outlines the standards we uphold.

1. Editorial Independence

Our journalists and editorial team operate independently of advertisers, investors, sponsors, or outside influence.
Editorial decisions are made solely based on newsworthiness, accuracy, and public interest.

2. Accuracy & Verification

We strive for accurate, evidence-based reporting.
Our standards include:

  • Verifying information with credible sources

  • Differentiating clearly between facts, analysis, and opinion

  • Correcting errors promptly and transparently

3. Conflicts of Interest

Team members must disclose:

  • Financial interests in companies we report on

  • Investments in crypto assets

  • Business relationships that could bias reporting

Such conflicts are avoided or clearly stated when unavoidable.

4. Sponsored Content

Sponsored or paid material is labeled clearly with terms like:

  • “Sponsored”

  • “Advertorial”

  • “Partner Content”

Editorial content is never influenced by sponsorships.

5. Use of AI in Journalism

We may use AI tools for:

  • Drafting assistance

  • Research

  • Background analysis

However:

  • AI is never used to fabricate facts

  • All published content is reviewed by humans

  • AI-generated text or imagery is used transparently when relevant

6. Financial & Crypto Coverage Standards

Given the speculative nature of financial and crypto markets:

  • We do not offer personalized financial advice

  • We avoid sensationalism or misleading claims

  • Price predictions, if discussed, are clearly labeled as speculation or analysis

7. Sources & Attributions

We credit all sources appropriately and avoid:

  • Plagiarism

  • Misrepresentation of statements

  • Use of anonymized sources without editorial justification

8. Corrections Policy

When inaccuracies occur:

  • They are corrected promptly

  • Updated articles indicate when corrections have been made

  • Major changes may include an editorial note

9. Reader Feedback

We view readers as partners in maintaining accuracy.
Feedback, correction requests, and content concerns can be emailed to – [email protected]
