Editorial, corrections and AI-use policy.
BLACK& editorial policy establishes accountability for authorship, sourcing, review, corrections, conflicts and AI-assisted production.
Authorship
A named human author is responsible for every analytical publication. Contributors and reviewers are identified according to their actual role.
Sourcing and review
Material factual claims require retained sources. Review checks evidence, logical consistency, legal sensitivity, conflicts and the distinction between fact and interpretation.
AI-assisted production
AI assistance is disclosed when material to the research process. Model output is not a source. Sensitive or confidential information may be used only in approved environments.
Corrections and retractions
Correction requests may be sent to hq@blackandi.com. Material changes include a dated revision note. A retracted publication remains identified with the reason for retraction where lawful.
