Editorial Policy & Standards
Last Updated: August 2026 | Effective Date: August 1, 2026
1. Editorial Independence
TeenBucks maintains strict editorial independence. Our editorial staff makes all content decisions free from commercial influence. Advertisers, affiliate partners, and sponsors do not have advance access to our articles, nor do they influence our ratings, recommendations, or warnings.
2. Fact-Checking & Accuracy Standards
Every article published on TeenBucks undergoes a multi-step fact-checking process:
- Regulatory Consistency: All tax, banking, and investment guides are checked against official circulars from the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), and Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT).
- Fee & Charge Auditing: Bank fee schedules (such as Kotak 811, SBI, and IDFC) are verified directly against published General Schedule of Features and Charges (GSFC) PDFs.
- Clear Last Updated Dates: Every article displays its publication date and last verified revision timestamp at the top of the page.
3. Corrections Policy
We are committed to full transparency when correcting errors. If an interest rate changes, a bank alters its debit card charges, or a regulatory slab is revised, we promptly update the article and note the correction.
If you spot an error in any guide, please email our editorial desk at [email protected].
4. Artificial Intelligence & Content Standards
We believe financial education requires human empathy, real student context, and verified domain expertise. All articles published on TeenBucks are written, edited, and fact-checked by human researchers. We do not publish automated, unverified content.
