Editorial Policy

At Scroll Nest, editorial integrity is the foundation of everything we publish. As an independent technology blog, our mission is to provide clear, responsible, and thought-provoking content that informs, questions, and reflects on the evolving digital world.

This Editorial Policy outlines our principles, content practices, and the standards we follow to ensure trust and transparency with our readers.

1. Independence and Objectivity

Scroll Nest operates independently of commercial, political, or institutional influence. Our editorial team and contributors are free to pursue stories, research, and insights without interference from advertisers, sponsors, or external stakeholders.

We do not accept payment for coverage, and we do not promote technologies, companies, or products in exchange for compensation unless clearly labeled as such (see: Sponsored Content below).

2. Content Standards

We are committed to publishing original, accurate, and verifiable content. All articles are:

Fact-checked before publication
Sourced with appropriate references and attributions
Written in plain, respectful language
Reviewed for relevance and clarity, especially in technical subjects

Our editorial topics include, but are not limited to:

Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning
Digital Ethics and Privacy
Emerging Technologies (e.g., Quantum Computing, Biocomputing)
Software Design, Interfaces, and Human-Computer Interaction
Sustainable Innovation and Future Trends

3. Editorial Process

All submissions go through a multi-step editorial process:

Idea development and alignment with Scroll Nest’s mission
Research and drafting, led by writers or contributors
Internal review by an editor or subject expert
Final approval before scheduling and publication

Corrections, clarifications, or retractions are handled transparently and promptly when needed. Readers can report errors by contacting us directly.

4. Contributor Ethics

Our contributors — whether in-house or guest — are required to:

Disclose any potential conflicts of interest
Adhere to editorial guidelines for tone, sourcing, and fairness
Avoid plagiarism and automated content generation without human oversight

We value diverse perspectives and welcome ethical, inclusive dialogue around technology and its societal impact.

5. AI-Assisted Content

Scroll Nest may use AI tools (e.g., for idea generation, outlining, or translation), but all published content is created, edited, and verified by humans. AI is not used to generate entire articles without editorial involvement.

6. Sponsored Content and Advertising

We may publish sponsored content or partnerships only if:

It is clearly labeled (e.g., “Sponsored,” “Paid Collaboration”)
It aligns with our editorial values and is relevant to our audience
It does not compromise our independence or mislead readers

All sponsored or affiliate links will be transparently disclosed according to UK advertising standards.

7. User Contributions and Comments

Scroll Nest may enable comments or guest contributions where appropriate. We moderate submissions to ensure:

Respectful and constructive discussion
No spam, hate speech, or misinformation
Contributions that add value to the topic

We reserve the right to remove or disable content that violates our guidelines.

8. Corrections and Feedback

We strive for accuracy and accountability. If you notice an error or inaccuracy in our content, we encourage you to contact us so we can investigate and, if necessary, issue a correction or update.

9. Contact and Oversight

Editorial oversight is managed by the Scroll Nest editorial team in Aberdeen, United Kingdom.
