Editorial Policy

The editorial policy of tillandtrolley governs all content published on the site, which reports on and explains the retail channel and the chains competing within it. The site will publish factual reporting, analysis, and reference material related to its defined sections, such as Retailers, Operations, Regulation and Policy, and Supply Chain. It will not publish content related to betting or gambling industries. It will not present health, legal, or financial advice as instruction, nor will it feature reporting on individuals’ private lives.

A clear separation is maintained between reporting and reference material. News articles and analysis represent timely reporting on events and trends. Reference pages, such as those for a Retailer, Channel, or Market, provide stable, fact-based overviews intended for long-term utility, updated only to reflect significant, verified changes. In all content, tillandtrolley will not use invented quotes or misrepresent statements.

When a claim or piece of data cannot be independently verified through primary sources or established industry data, it will either be omitted or explicitly attributed to its source with appropriate context regarding its unverified status. The site prioritises accuracy over speed in such instances.

All images are subject to strict guidelines. Where used, a real photograph will carry a direct credit to its copyright holder or source. The site will never publish an image of a real person's face generated by artificial intelligence or other software, nor use such imagery to represent actual individuals.

Readers with queries, corrections, or suggestions regarding editorial content are encouraged to contact the editors. Correspondence should be addressed to the editorial team via the contact details provided on the site.
