At Perfect Bowl, we believe that trust is built on a foundation of transparency, accuracy, and integrity. Whether we are writing about our delicious offerings, health tips related to food, or restaurant practices, we strive to ensure every piece of content is factually accurate, up-to-date, and supported by reliable information.
This Fact Check Policy outlines how we verify the accuracy of our content, what steps we take to correct errors, and how we ensure credibility across all our communication platforms.
Purpose of Fact-Checking
The purpose of our fact-checking process is to:
- Maintain informational integrity
- Prevent the spread of misinformation
- Build and sustain customer trust
- Ensure that all blog articles, website copy, and promotional material are based on verified data
We understand that our readers, whether customers or general visitors, rely on our content to make decisions — from what to eat to where to dine. That’s why we prioritize fact-checking as a core part of our content creation workflow.
Types of Content We Fact-Check
We apply fact-checking standards to all types of content published on our website and other official communication channels, including:
- Product descriptions and menu details
- Health and nutrition-related content
- Articles and blog posts about ingredients or cooking methods
- Statements about dietary claims (e.g., gluten-free, vegan, allergen-safe)
- Local sourcing or sustainability claims
- Event and promotional details
- Operational information (hours, location, services)
Each piece of content goes through a review process to ensure factual consistency.
Our Fact-Checking Process
The following steps outline how we fact-check our content before publication:
1. Initial Research
Content writers gather information from authoritative and credible sources, including:
- Government websites (e.g., Food Standards Australia New Zealand)
- Scientific journals and nutritional studies
- Certified health and dietary organizations
- Supplier certifications and packaging labels
- Internal operational data
We avoid user-generated or speculative sources such as forums and unverified social media pages.
2. Cross-Verification
We cross-check facts with two or more trusted sources to confirm accuracy. If the fact cannot be verified from multiple reliable references, it is either omitted or marked with appropriate context or disclaimers.
3. Internal Review
Each article or page is reviewed by an editor or senior team member with knowledge in food safety, hospitality, or content editing. This step ensures that there are no misrepresentations or misleading data.
4. Date-Stamping and Timeliness
We ensure that our content is time-sensitive and reviewed regularly for updates. Posts related to seasonal dishes, product availability, or special offers are clearly dated and retired when outdated.
Expert Consultation (Where Necessary)
For posts that include detailed nutritional or health-related insights, we may consult:
- Certified nutritionists
- Food safety experts
- Medical consultants (for allergen-related information)
While we are not a medical or scientific authority, we aim to responsibly relay health-related information with the necessary disclaimers and expert reviews where appropriate.
Error Correction Policy
While we take great care in verifying information, mistakes can occasionally happen. When an error is identified—internally or externally—we commit to the following:
- Prompt Review – The error is investigated and verified by our editorial or operations team.
- Clear Correction – Incorrect data is corrected with a note if it impacts the reader’s experience (e.g., menu item availability or allergy information).
- Notification (if applicable) – In cases where a significant error has been shared via newsletters or social posts, we may notify users via a follow-up correction message.
If you notice an error on our website or content, we encourage you to bring it to our attention by emailing perfectbowl959@gmail.com.
Transparency and Accountability
We are transparent about our sources and methods. Whenever we use third-party data, quotes, or scientific studies, we make efforts to cite or link to the original source when feasible. We avoid exaggerated claims, clickbait, or misleading headlines.
If a piece of content includes a personal opinion, we clearly indicate that it reflects an editorial viewpoint and not a factual statement.
User-Generated Content and Comments
If our website includes blog comments or reviews from customers in the future, we will moderate such content to prevent:
- False claims about our food or service
- Misinformation regarding health
- Inflammatory or biased reviews without evidence
We reserve the right to remove any content that violates our standards for factual accuracy.
Continuous Improvement
We recognize that factual accuracy is not a one-time task but a continuous responsibility. As our business evolves, menus change, and customer needs grow, we commit to regularly:
- Reviewing older content for accuracy
- Updating our fact-checking methods based on industry best practices
- Training content writers and marketing staff to follow our editorial and verification guidelines
Conclusion
At Perfect Bowl, fact-checking is not just a policy — it’s a promise. We value the trust our customers place in us and believe that delivering truthful, reliable, and verified content is central to maintaining that trust.
Thank you for supporting us and helping us maintain high standards of honesty and transparency.
