The Trust Centre is the hub for every policy that governs our content — how we fact-check, rank vehicles, correct mistakes, disclose AI use, and keep editorial decisions separate from advertising. Start here if you want to understand how a specific article, ranking, or review came together.

Why we built a Trust Centre
Automotive content covers decisions that matter — what to buy, how to finance it, whether a safety claim is real. Readers deserve to see the standards behind that content in one place, not scattered across footnotes. This page indexes every policy that shapes what we publish.
How the policies connect
Each policy covers a different stage of the editorial process: sourcing and verification (Fact-Checking Policy), independence from commercial pressure (Editorial Independence Statement), how comparisons are scored (Comparison and Ranking Methodology), what happens when something slips through (Corrections Policy), who's allowed to write for us and under what conditions (Author Guidelines), and how AI tools fit into that process (AI Use Disclosure).
Who this page is for
- Readers deciding how much weight to put on a review or ranking
- Journalists or researchers citing True Motion Auto as a source
- Advertisers and partners who want to understand what editorial independence means in practice here
- Anyone reporting a suspected error or conflict of interest
Something not covered here
For data handling and privacy questions, see our Legal and Privacy section rather than the Trust Centre — this hub focuses on editorial standards, not how personal data is collected or stored.
Keeping this page current
As policies are updated — for example when our AI use or ranking criteria change — this page and the underlying policy pages are updated together so the Trust Centre never points to an outdated version of a policy.
