Publisher

Digital Saboot News

Editorial Control

Publication decisions remain subject to human editorial review.

Corrections and Grievances

Public processes are available for errors, replies and formal grievances.

01

Decision to Grant Confidentiality

Confidentiality is not automatic. Public interest, reliability, direct knowledge and risk of retaliation are assessed.

02

Data Minimisation

Unnecessary identifiers, private numbers, addresses and original-file metadata are restricted and may be removed before publication.

03

Safer Communication

Before sending sensitive documents, sources should consider risks involving devices, cloud backups and file metadata. No digital channel can guarantee complete security.

04

Legal Limits

The newsroom may obtain legal advice where required. A promise of confidentiality will not be made if it cannot realistically or lawfully be maintained.
