Editorial Standards

1. Purpose

lite.news is owned and operated by NXT Ltd, a UK-registered company. lite.news aims to provide clear, factual and accessible news coverage using publicly available information. These Editorial Standards describe our general approach to accuracy, sourcing and responsible publication.

2. Accuracy and fairness

We aim to:

• Base articles on verifiable, publicly available information.
• Represent events and statements in context and without distortion.
• Avoid rumours, speculation and unverified claims.
• Make updates or corrections where appropriate when credible new information becomes available.

These aims describe our approach and may not be achieved in every instance. If you believe something is wrong or misleading, please contact us so we can review it.

3. Sources and public information

Our coverage is built on public sources such as official statements, government data, public reports and established news organisations. We use sources to identify and verify information, then write original articles in our own words.

Where it helps clarity, we may attribute information to institutions or public bodies. Any quotations, where used, are limited in length and clearly attributed. We do not reproduce articles or substantial portions of copyrighted text.

4. Originality and copyright

lite.news publishes original articles written in its own words. We do not republish third-party articles. We seek to avoid reproducing distinctive wording, structure or presentation from any single publication.

If you believe content on this site infringes copyright or is too close to a specific source, please contact us using the form on the about page. We review notices and take appropriate action where warranted.

5. Use of tools and automation

We use digital tools, including automated systems, to support parts of the publishing workflow. These tools may assist with tasks such as research, drafting and consistency checks.

NXT Ltd is responsible for what is published on lite.news. We maintain written standards and operational controls intended to reduce common publishing risks, but no process or tool can eliminate the possibility of error.

6. Sensitive topics

For topics that can significantly affect people and communities, such as crime, legal disputes, public health or politics, we aim to take additional care, including:

• Relying on trusted and clearly identified sources where possible.
• Distinguishing between reported allegations and established facts.
• Avoiding unnecessary detail about private individuals and minors.
• Using neutral language and avoiding gratuitous or inflammatory characterisations.

7. Corrections and updates

If you believe that content on lite.news is inaccurate, incomplete or unfair, you can contact us using the form on the about page to request a review. Where appropriate, we may correct an article, add clarification, or note that an update has been made.

We review reports relating to factual accuracy and clarity. In some cases, we may temporarily restrict access to an article while we assess a credible concern.

8. Conflicts of interest

We aim to avoid conflicts of interest that could affect our coverage. Where a potential conflict exists, we may disclose it or adjust our approach to reduce the risk of bias.

9. Advertising and editorial independence

lite.news may show advertising or work with third-party ad networks. Advertising does not determine which stories we cover or how articles are written. We aim to distinguish clearly between editorial content and any sponsored or paid material.
