We remain independent from sources when creating content, and sources do not influence the content of our materials, as we strive for objectivity and balance in reporting while maintaining editorial independence. We do not send materials to sources for review before publication. However, the editorial team may share specific parts of a text with a source to verify professional terminology or avoid factual inaccuracies.
