The trust we intend to earn

Useful information.
Responsible representation.

A directory listing should make information easier to find — not imply that an organisation, project or claim has been endorsed.

Integrity

Source attribution, accurate descriptions and a transparent correction process.

Independence

Editorial judgement stays separate from paid listings and sponsorship.

Evidence

Clear distinction between self-reported information and independently checked evidence.

Accountability

Privacy safeguards, visible criteria and responsible handling of concerns.
