TRUST & EVIDENCE

Confidence comes from knowing why.

Keep evidence visible, uncertainty explicit, and consequential actions under your control.

Claims need context

A claim should name its source, scope, review date and limits. A checked source is not a general quality endorsement.

Matches need reasons

Show which requirements align and what remains unconfirmed. Paid visibility must be clearly labelled and kept separate from organic matching.

Decisions need control

Review the recipients, content, attachments and visibility before sending or publishing. Changes to an approved action require a fresh review.

A shared evidence language.

Source checked

A specific claim was checked against a stated source.

Partner supplied

Provided by the partner or product vendor.

Observed

Recorded directly through an authorised observation.

Inferred

A reasoned interpretation; confirm before relying on it.

Conflicting

Available sources disagree.

Unknown

There is not enough information to assess the claim.

Freshness is separate: Current, Outdated or Unknown.
