Factinate.com was created by trivia nerds who have a passion for learning and sharing information. Factinate's primary goal is to provide our users with accurate and objective information. While we try to do so in an entertaining fashion, the accuracy of our facts always takes precedent over entertainment. This means that our articles tend to run a little long as our editorial team covers topics in a way that's both fair and comprehensive.

Factinate adheres to a set of ethical principles that guide our content creation. These principles, which are central to our mission of truth-seeking and storytelling, emphasize accuracy, fairness, and transparency in our coverage.
Truth-seeking and accuracy: We report factual information, verify sources, and correct errors promptly.
Fairness and balance: We present different perspectives on issues and historical subjects, ensuring that articles are not biased.
Transparency and accountability: We are open about our content creation processes and are willing to explain editorial decisions to the public.
Independence and objectivity: We maintain independence from all political and commercial influence, striving to cover subjects objectively.
Avoiding conflicts of interest: We ensure that our writers are not influenced by personal relationships or financial interests.
At Factinate, we prioritize transparency and integrity. Any sponsored content will be clearly labeled and separate from our regular content. Readers can look for a sponsorship disclosure in bolded text at the top of any article that contains sponsored links. When an article features a sponsorship disclosure, that means Factinate may receive a commission from the sale of products linked to in the article.
Note that we research sponsors extensively before agreeing to work with them. Products must meet our high standards, be valuable to our audience, and align with our mission and values. We maintain full editorial control to ensure everything we publish is of the highest quality.
Factinate.com is wholly owned by Factinate Ltd., which gives our writers the freedom to have complete editorial control free from bias or conflict. At Factinate, we are committed to equality in both our hiring practices and content creation. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, disability status, or any other characteristic. We believe in representing a diverse set of identities and histories in our articles, and our output reflects this.
