Precision.
Context. Clarity.

These standards guide GamesOfSkillMag’s coverage of cash-prize skill machines and the industry around them.

Primary sources first

Material factual claims should be supported with identifiable sources. For law and regulation, our reference points include statutes, bill records, court documents, and agency publications. Every report should identify the relevant jurisdiction and distinguish publication dates from effective dates.

Reporting and interpretation

We label analysis, opinion, explainers, and sponsored content. Pending legislation is a proposal. Allegations remain allegations unless established by the relevant process. We describe the reach and procedural status of a court decision, including known stays or appeals.

Vendor coverage

A manufacturer’s description tells us what that company claims. It does not prove performance, profitability, or lawful operation. Directory inclusion is not a legal certification. A company’s headquarters is distinct from its distribution territory.

AI and imagery

We may use AI to assist research preparation, drafting, and illustration. AI-assisted articles are identified. Conceptual images are labeled and are not presented as photographs of actual news events. We do not invent quotes, sources, staff identities, or claims of professional review.

Corrections and commercial independence

Substantive corrections should explain what changed and when. Sponsored work must be clearly identified. Advertising does not purchase favorable coverage. For a correction request, use the contact options published by Vyze Media and include the article URL, disputed statement, and supporting source.

Scope of legal reporting

Our journalism provides information, not individualized legal advice. Readers should consult current primary records and qualified counsel for decisions about particular equipment or operations.
