Fact-Checking Policy

At SSC Article (https://sscarticle.com), our mission is to deliver accurate, reliable, and trustworthy information on automotive news, gadgets, financial topics like money-making strategies, credit cards, SIPs, mutual funds, and more. Integrity and authenticity underpin our editorial standards. This Fact-Checking Policy details how we verify facts, correct errors, and uphold transparency in every piece of content.

1. Commitment to Accuracy

Accuracy drives every article we publish on SSC Article.

We cross-verify all facts, figures, and claims using credible sources like official RBI and SEBI portals for financial data, manufacturer press releases for automotive and gadgets, government databases, and reports from trusted outlets such as Economic Times or TechCrunch.
Research from studies, market analyses, or financial surveys is always clearly cited with links to originals.
Our goal: Provide truthful, unbiased, verifiable content on topics like SIP returns, credit card rewards, EV specs, and smartphone benchmarks.

2. Verification Process

Our editorial team follows a rigorous multi-step process before any content goes live, ensuring E-E-A-T compliance through expertise and authority:

  • Source Evaluation: We prioritize primary, authoritative sources like RBI/SEBI for finance, OEM sites for autos/gadgets, and peer-reviewed studies—rejecting unverified blogs or rumors.
  • Cross-Verification: Every claim is checked against 3+ independent references to spot inconsistencies, especially in volatile areas like mutual fund performance or gadget pricing.
  • Expert Consultation: For specialized topics (e.g., SIP calculations, credit card APRs, or automotive safety ratings), we consult certified financial advisors, auto engineers, and tech analysts with proven credentials.
  • Editorial Review: Articles undergo layered reviews for factual precision, balanced perspectives, and SEO-optimized clarity.

3. Handling Errors and Corrections

We aim for perfection, but human error can occur. When identified:

Corrections are issued immediately, with clear in-article notices including timestamps and explanations (e.g., “Updated on [Date]: Corrected SIP yield from 12% to 11.5% based on latest SEBI data”).
Major changes link to the original version for full transparency.
This process builds trustworthiness, aligning with Google’s emphasis on accountable journalism.

4. Reader Participation

5. Independence and Transparency

SSC Article’s fact-checking is fully independent, free from political, commercial, or sponsor influence.

Sponsored content (e.g., affiliate gadget reviews or financial tool promotions) is explicitly labeled as “Sponsored” or “Affiliate Link” and firewalled from editorial pieces.
We disclose all affiliations transparently, never letting ads sway our auto specs, SIP recommendations, or market analyses.

6. Continuous Improvement

We evolve with industry standards, incorporating Google’s E-E-A-T updates, AI detection tools, and verification tech like Factmata or SEBI’s real-time APIs.

Regular training ensures our team delivers expert, authoritative content on India’s automotive boom, gadget innovations, and smart money moves you can rely on.
