Editorial Policy

TsarWars.net publishes game guides, casino comparisons, and strategy content for online players. Every page on this site goes through the same production process: research first, writing second, fact-check third. We do not publish content we cannot verify, and we do not allow commercial relationships to alter what we write.

How Content Is Created

Our writers begin each piece by reviewing primary sources - official game providers, casino terms pages, and regulatory body databases. No fact is taken from a secondary source unless it has been cross-checked against at least one primary document. Only after that research phase does writing begin.

Guides and reviews are written by human authors with hands-on experience in the games and platforms they cover. We do not publish AI-generated content as a finished product. Where automated tools assist with research or data aggregation, a senior editor reviews and rewrites the output before publication.

Every published page lists a named author and an initial publication date. Authors are assigned to topics that match their background - slot content goes to writers who have studied slot mechanics, table game guides go to writers with documented expertise in probability and strategy.

Fact-Checking Process

Before any page goes live, a second reviewer checks every quantitative claim in the text. This includes RTP figures, maximum win values, volatility ratings, minimum deposit thresholds, and bonus wagering requirements. If a figure cannot be confirmed against an official source within the review period, it is removed rather than published with uncertainty.

Bonus terms change frequently, and we know outdated bonus information is one of the most common harms in this industry. Each casino listing on TsarWars.net includes a "verified on" date showing when our team last checked the terms directly on the operator's site. We do not carry forward old terms without re-verification.

Casino licensing information is checked against the issuing regulator's public register - not taken from the casino's own claims. A casino that says it holds a license must have that license confirmed in the register before we state it holds one.

Affiliate Relationships

TsarWars.net earns commission when readers click through to casino partners and make a deposit. This is how the site funds its operations. We disclose this relationship on every page that contains affiliate links, and we disclose it here plainly: some of the casinos listed on this site pay us a referral fee.

That commercial relationship does not determine which casinos we list, how we rank them, or what we write about them. Our editorial team and our commercial team operate independently. The people who set commission rates do not write or edit content, and the people who write content do not negotiate commission rates.

We list casinos that we would not recommend to our readers only when those listings serve a comparative or informational purpose - for example, explaining why a particular bonus structure is unfavorable. We do not suppress negative findings about partners, and we do not inflate ratings to favor higher-paying referral arrangements.

Update Frequency

Game guides are reviewed on a rolling schedule tied to provider update cycles. When a game provider releases a major update - a new feature, a changed RTP, a new variant - the relevant guide is flagged for review within seven days. Smaller changes are batched into quarterly reviews.

Casino pages are reviewed monthly for bonus accuracy and quarterly for full content accuracy. Regulatory status is checked any time we receive a credible report of a license suspension or change. Pages that have not been reviewed within twelve months are marked with a review-due notice until they are updated.

Corrections Policy

We correct errors as soon as they are identified, regardless of how long the incorrect content has been live. The correction is noted at the top of the affected page with a brief description of what changed and on what date. We do not quietly edit pages without noting the change.

If you believe something on TsarWars.net is factually wrong, contact us through the address on our Contact page. We will review the claim within five business days and respond with our finding. If we confirm the error, the correction goes live immediately - not after the next scheduled review cycle.

We do not remove critical coverage in response to pressure from operators, providers, or other commercial partners. A correction corrects a factual error. It is not a mechanism for managing reputation.

Author Independence

Authors at TsarWars.net are not told in advance which casinos to rank highly, which games to recommend, or which operators to favor. Editorial briefs describe the topic, the target audience, and the factual sources to consult - not the conclusions to reach.

Authors may not accept gifts, free credits, or other compensation from the operators or providers they cover. Any author who has a direct financial relationship with a brand - beyond this site's standard affiliate program - may not write about that brand without disclosure. We treat undisclosed conflicts of interest as grounds for removing content and ending the working relationship.
