Accountability

These standards set out our duty to be accountable in our reporting and responsible for information and content written and published on our site.

Accuracy (Verifying Reporting)

Jaxon.gg’s employees, contractors, and associated staff are committed to accurate and honest reporting. In doing so, fact-checking and verification processes take place. Content will be reviewed and fact-checked by an editor before publishing, but writers are also expected to submit all content with the understanding that it is truthful and accurate. Freelance journalists and content writers are held to the same editorial standards.

Public Mindfulness

Our reporters, employees, official channels, website, and content have a responsibility to be mindful of the dignity, privacy, and safety of individuals not related to the website. Employees, writers, contractors, and others Jaxon.gg-affiliated staff will handle themselves with candor and respect for others while in public or on social media.

Complaints and Corrections

Jaxon.gg is a news source covering esports, gaming, betting and iGaming, and entertainment with a commitment to accuracy, honesty, and impartial reporting. Opinion content is clearly labeled, and gambling-related material is provided for informational purposes only, not as advice. Read our Responsible Gambling Pledge.

Errors are corrected promptly through in-article updates or clarifications, with major changes communicated to readers. The site prioritizes proper credit and attribution, clearly discloses review conditions and pre-release access, and respects embargoes. Jaxon.gg does not pay sources, protects anonymous sources, and verifies their credibility through editorial oversight.

Ethical reporting and news gathering requires respect for legal boundaries, public safety, individual rights and privacy, and that our work serves the interest of our readers while not compromising the rule of law.
