Editorial policy
How FaceSearch Wiki sources, writes, reviews and corrects entries, what it refuses to publish, and how its publisher's product is handled.
Sourced and dated
- Every factual claim has a source in the entry's source list, with the date it was checked.
- Prices, free tiers and opt-out procedures are quoted from the vendor's own pages and dated.
- Numbers come from the original report (NIST, FTC, IC3, a regulator, a court), never from a secondary summary when the original is available.
Neutral voice
- No rankings, no "best", no adjectives about quality.
- Every engine is described in the same fields. FaceSearch, made by this wiki's publisher, gets no special treatment and no extra links.
- Contested or pending matters are labelled as such with the date.
Review cadence
- Engines and directories: every 90 days.
- Laws and cases: when something happens, and at least once a year.
- Terms and concepts: once a year.
- Each entry shows its last review date.
What we do not publish
- Anything that identifies a private individual, including screenshots of search results showing real people.
- Instructions whose only purpose is to find or track a person.
- Accuracy claims for any engine, including FaceSearch, without a published test to cite.
- Copied text from other sites.
Corrections
- Report an error from any page. We acknowledge within five business days.
- Corrections that change a fact are logged in the changelog with the date.
- Legal entries are summaries, not legal advice. For a decision that matters, read the source or ask a lawyer.
