This policy describes the publishing standards for onlinebingocanada.org. Robyn Van Zyl is the editor and contact for questions about the accuracy or presentation of our information.
Answer the question in original language
Content should explain its subject in language written for this publication. A source can establish a fact without supplying the wording of an entire article. Any short quotation should be identifiable and attributed; an opinion, example or estimate should be distinguishable from a confirmed product detail.
Game explanations should define the target, relevant numbers and important exceptions. Worked examples should state their assumptions. Neither a run of results nor a betting method should be presented as a reliable way to generate income.
Match the source to the claim
Games and promotions
Use the game’s official rules for its mechanics and the particular promotion’s terms for eligibility, activation, expiry and restrictions. Similar branding is not evidence of identical conditions.
Local requirements
Use the relevant public authority for regulatory statements. Identify the province, territory and product instead of assuming that one local rule applies across Canada.
Support and privacy
Use a support service’s own contact information and official privacy guidance. State geographical coverage when a helpline or programme serves a particular area.
Describe the limits of the evidence
A missing figure should remain unconfirmed until a suitable source establishes it. Avoid filling gaps with a guessed bonus code, launch date, live jackpot, payment fee or payout time. A website being accessible does not establish that its games are available to a particular reader.
Personal play, deposits, withdrawals, interviews or device tests should be claimed only when they actually occurred and support the conclusion described. A source review is different from a first-hand test. Comparisons should identify their criteria rather than imply an unexplained ranking.
Keep commercial context visible
The affiliate disclosure explains potential referral arrangements. Compensation is not evidence of a licence, product availability or a favourable outcome. Any commercial placement should be distinguishable from a sourced factual conclusion.
Descriptions of gambling products should retain the conditions a reader needs to understand them. A monetary benefit, bingo ticket and slot-spin promotion should not be treated as interchangeable.
Correct the information and explain the date
Send the page address, proposed correction and supporting evidence through Contact. The relevant claim should be checked before a report is adopted or dismissed. An update date should correspond to a real review or change, without implying that every external term was rechecked at the same moment.
