At The Tech Boom, our goal is simple: to make technology easier to understand.
We cover artificial intelligence, technology news, apps, software, gadgets and emerging digital trends with an emphasis on explaining not only what happened, but why it matters.
The Tech Boom is an independent technology publication based in Australia. This Editorial Policy explains the principles we follow when researching, creating and updating our content.
Accuracy and Sourcing
We aim to publish information that is accurate, clear and supported by reliable sources.
Where appropriate, articles may reference official company announcements, product documentation, research publications, regulatory bodies and other reputable sources. When reporting developing stories, we aim to distinguish confirmed information from reports, rumours or speculation.
Technology changes quickly. Information that was accurate when an article was published may change as products, software and services are updated.
Independence
Editorial content is created with the interests of our readers in mind.
Companies, brands and products do not receive favourable coverage simply because they provide products, services, advertising or other commercial opportunities.
If The Tech Boom publishes sponsored content or receives compensation that could reasonably influence how readers interpret an article, we will aim to clearly disclose that relationship.
Reviews and Recommendations
When we recommend an app, service, gadget or other technology product, our aim is to explain both its strengths and limitations.
Recommendations may be based on hands-on experience, research, publicly available information, product documentation and comparison with competing products.
We will not claim to have personally tested a product when we have not done so.
Use of Artificial Intelligence
Artificial intelligence tools may be used to assist with parts of The Tech Boom’s publishing process, including research organisation, brainstorming, drafting assistance, editing and the creation of visual material.
AI-generated information can be inaccurate. For this reason, AI should not be treated as the final authority for factual claims.
Content is reviewed before publication, and we aim to verify important factual information using appropriate sources.
The use of AI does not change our responsibility to provide useful, accurate and transparent content to our readers.
Corrections and Updates
Despite our best efforts, mistakes can happen.
If we discover a material factual error, we aim to correct it as soon as reasonably possible. Articles may also be updated when new information becomes available or when technology changes substantially after publication.
Readers who identify a potential error are welcome to contact us.
Opinions and Analysis
Some articles may include analysis, commentary or opinions about technology, products or industry developments.
Where relevant, we aim to distinguish opinion and interpretation from established facts.
Affiliate Links and Commercial Relationships
The Tech Boom may eventually use affiliate links. This means we may receive a commission if a reader purchases a product or service through certain links, at no additional cost to the reader.
Where affiliate relationships are relevant, appropriate disclosure will be provided.
Affiliate relationships do not determine whether a product receives positive coverage or a recommendation.
Our Commitment
Technology should be understandable without needing to be an expert.
Our aim is to provide practical, accessible and useful technology coverage while continually improving the quality and accuracy of The Tech Boom.
AI, technology and the future — explained.
