The Editorial Guidelines and the Editorial Code of Ethics apply to editorial staff, editors, external contributors and other persons involved in creating, editing, correcting or publishing editorial content. They set expectations concerning accuracy, verification, attribution, conflicts of interest, privacy, transparency, distinction between fact and opinion, use of sources, corrections and responsible use of AI.

Accuracy
10.1. Processes for Ensuring Accuracy
65. Do you have internal rules and a systematic editorial process to ensure the accuracy of your content?
Yes
If you want to publish additional information, please provide it here.
Editorial content follows a systematic process of content creation by the author, editorial review, any necessary verification or supplementation of sources, and final approval before publication. Every editorial article is reviewed by a human editor, who checks factual accuracy, comprehensibility, structure, context and compliance with the applicable editorial rules. Information that cannot be fully verified is identified as unverified, disputed or requiring further verification.
66. Do you have internal rules and a systematic editorial process to ensure that the Editorial Guidelines are adhered to?
Yes
If you want to publish additional information, please provide it here.
The Editorial Principles and Processes and the Editorial Code of Ethics apply to editorial staff, editors, external contributors and other persons involved in creating, editing, correcting or publishing content.

67. Do you have a verification process for content and the role of editorial oversight?
Yes
If you want to publish additional information, please provide it here.
Verification is integrated into the editorial workflow. Journalists and editors use relevant primary and secondary sources, seek confirmation from multiple independent sources where appropriate, attribute quotations and external material, and clearly identify information that could not be fully verified. Editorial oversight is exercised by the human editor who reviews and approves the article before publication. Legally or ethically sensitive matters may be escalated to editorial leadership.
10.2. Process Review
68. Do you have a mechanism for periodic review of the effectiveness of the implementation of your Editorial Guidelines in your editorial processes?
Yes
If you want to publish additional information, please provide it here.
ParlamentníListy.cz uses a recurring internal review mechanism to assess how editorial rules are applied in published content. A retrospective content-review tool is used by editorial management, complemented by a regular weekly review of published news content. The review assesses areas including sourcing, genre compliance, editorial and commercial separation, adequacy of headlines and framing, and the added value of original reporting. It identifies recurring issues, areas for improvement and, where relevant, authors requiring additional editorial guidance. The findings are used to define priorities for subsequent editorial work. The mechanism is still being further developed and refined.
69. Is your accountability mechanism (internal or external) subject to periodic review?
Yes
If you want to publish additional information, please provide it here.
ParlamentníListy.cz reviews its accountability mechanisms on an ongoing and recurring basis. Complaints, correction cases, data-protection requests, legal or regulatory changes and operational experience are assessed and, where appropriate, result in changes to procedures, public guidance, internal governance documents or technical tools. Governance documents are version-controlled and significant changes are recorded in their change histories. The Media Outlet also carries out regular monitoring of relevant legal, regulatory and media-sector developments to identify issues requiring changes to its accountability and compliance processes.
10.3. Statistics and External Content
70. Do your Editorial Guidelines require that statistics should be sourced and verified?
Yes
If you want to publish additional information, please provide it here.
The Editorial Guidelines require facts and statistical information to be attributed to relevant sources and verified before publication. Statistical data, surveys and research findings are checked against the original or another reliable source. Relevant context, including the period, methodology, sample and material limitations, is provided where necessary to avoid a misleading interpretation.
71. Do your Editorial Guidelines require that external photographs/video/audio content should be sourced and verified?
Yes
If you want to publish additional information, please provide it here.
The Editorial Guidelines require external photographs, video and audio material to be attributed to an identifiable source or provider and verified to an appropriate extent before publication. Verification may include the authenticity, origin, date, location and context of the material. Agency, licensed and other third-party material is attributed in accordance with the available information and applicable licensing terms. Material that cannot be fully verified is clearly identified as such or is not published.
10.4. Identification of Journalists, Agencies
72. Are the Individual Journalists (including external sources) identified, for example through a byline, or recorded in publishing mechanism so that this information can be accessed?
Yes
If you want to publish additional information, please provide it here.
Individual journalists and external contributors are identified through public bylines and author profiles. The content management system records the author of the article and maintains an audit log of editorial actions, including timestamps and the user accounts responsible for creating or modifying the content.

Yes
10.5. Location Reporting
74. Is location reporting identified in your content?
Yes
75. Do your Editorial Guidelines ensure that any constraint on location reporting be explained in the report or in the context of its publication?

The Editorial Guidelines require any material constraint affecting on-location reporting to be disclosed in the report or its immediate context where it may affect the scope or understanding of the coverage.
76. Do your Editorial Guidelines require transparency where a location report has been facilitated by an external body?
Yes
If you want to publish additional information, please provide it here.
The Editorial Guidelines require disclosure where access to a location or event, or the production of a location report, was facilitated, organised or funded by an external organisation or other third party. Material forms of assistance are disclosed in the article or its immediate context, without affecting editorial independence.
10.6. Automatically Generated Content
77. Do you publish any content that is automatically generated?
Yes
77.a. Is it in the Editorial Guidelines of your Media Outlet to clearly indicate content generated, wholly or partly, by means of AI or algorithmic processes?
Yes
If you want to publish additional information, please provide it here.
ParlamentníListy.cz publishes automatically generated audio versions of selected human-written articles using text-to-speech technology. The audio version reproduces the published text and does not create new editorial information. The use of a synthetic voice is identified to the user. AI-assisted spelling correction and other technical tools do not independently generate or publish editorial articles; all published editorial content remains subject to human authorial and editorial responsibility.
10.7. Algorithmic Dissemination and Curation
78. Do you use any algorithms for the dissemination or curation of content?
Yes
78.a. Do you clearly indicate your policy on your use of algorithms for the dissemination and curation of news content?
Yes
If you want to publish additional information, please provide it here.
ParlamentníListy.cz uses simple, predefined and non-personalised rules to select or order certain content elements. These include editorial article weighting, chronological selection of related articles by tag, display of the most recently active politician, random selection of an eligible elected representative’s profile, and selection of the highest-rated user comment. The mechanisms do not use behavioural personalisation based on reading history, IP address or individual user profiles. Editorial staff retain control over editorial priorities and may change or override automated selections.
78.b. Does the Media Outlet adhere to best practice requirements from a regulatory or advisory body?
Yes
If you want to publish additional information, please provide it here.
ParlamentníListy.cz voluntarily applies the relevant transparency principles for recommender systems reflected in Article 27 of the Digital Services Act. These include public explanation of the main selection and ranking criteria, whether personalisation is used, editorial control and the possibility of human override. The Media Outlet also takes into account Council of Europe Recommendation CM/Rec(2020)1 on the human-rights impacts of algorithmic systems. Before introducing any future AI-based editorial curation, behavioural personalisation or materially different recommender system, it will also take into account the Council of Europe Guidelines on the responsible implementation of artificial intelligence systems in journalism.
10.8. Treatment of Explicit Content
79. Do your Editorial Guidelines ensure the ethically appropriate treatment of violent and explicit content?
Yes
If you want to publish additional information, please provide it here.
The Editorial Guidelines require violent, graphic, sexually explicit or otherwise distressing material to be used only where justified by editorial relevance or the public interest. Its use must be proportionate and contextualised, must avoid gratuitous harm or indignity, and may be subject to warnings, age restrictions, editing, anonymisation, non-explicit preview images or withholding where appropriate.
80. Do your Editorial Guidelines ensure the ethically appropriate treatment of content which features children or other vulnerable people?
Yes
If you want to publish additional information, please provide it here.
The Editorial Guidelines require heightened protection for children, victims of crime, persons with disabilities, people in crisis and other vulnerable persons. Before publication, the newsroom assesses necessity, public interest, the extent of identification, privacy, dignity, safety and foreseeable short- and long-term harm. Identification is limited or removed unless it is necessary and proportionate to the public interest, and disputed cases are escalated to an editor or newsroom management.
81. Do your Editorial Guidelines ensure the ethically appropriate handling of live content?

Depending on the nature of the material, verification may include the identity of the source, the origin of the material, the circumstances in which it was created, authenticity, date, location and relevant context. For material obtained from social media or other third parties, the original account or source is checked where appropriate. If the material cannot be sufficiently verified, it is either not published or the limitations of verification are clearly disclosed to the audience.

Where the provider’s identity is legitimately protected, the source may be described more generally in accordance with the Media Outlet’s source-protection rules. User-generated and curated content is also clearly distinguished from original editorial content.

Yes

98. Do you in editorial practice or in Editorial Guidelines require a clear distinction to be made between news content and content supplied by an external non-journalistic body?
Yes
If you want to publish additional information, please provide it here.
ParlamentníListy.cz clearly distinguishes independently produced newsroom journalism from content supplied by political actors, public authorities, companies, NGOs, users and other external non-journalistic sources. Depending on the publication model, externally supplied content is identified through a dedicated content type, source or author attribution and, where relevant, an explanation of the newsroom’s role. Curated “Politici voličům” content is identified as transferred content and linked to the original Profile PL author, while Profile-based user-generated content is explicitly distinguished from editorial content. External photographs, video, audio and eyewitness material are attributed to their provider where relevant to understanding their origin.

“Politici voličům” and Profile-based content are not classified as sponsored or paid content solely because they originate outside the newsroom. Their external or user-generated nature is disclosed through their dedicated publication and attribution model. External journalists and freelancers producing content under newsroom assignment and editorial control are governed by the editorial rules applicable to contributors.

100.a. Do you have a clear process for assessing and dealing with the claims?
Yes
If you want to publish additional information, please provide it here.
Potential inaccuracies are assessed by the responsible editor against the published content, available sources and any evidence submitted by the complainant. The assessment may result in confirmation of the original content, correction, supplementation, clarification, apology, withdrawal or another proportionate editorial response. The complainant is informed of the outcome. Where the nature of a serious complaint could create doubts about an impartial review by persons directly involved in producing or approving the contested content, it is escalated to a senior editorial person who was not directly involved.

FactCheck cases are recorded, assigned and closed with a written assessment, and the reporting user is informed of the outcome.
