Golf In Vietnam - Editorial Standards
GIV's Commitment

Valuable information must come with responsibility

Golf In Vietnam creates content for players, golf professionals, businesses, junior golfers and international visitors interested in Vietnam. That is why accuracy, usage rights, context and transparency are not optional extras — they are what gives content lasting value.

Scope: The standards below apply to the Golf In Vietnam website, podcasts, videos, newsletters, data, golfer profiles and official social media channels.

01

Editorial Policy

Accuracy, the reader's interest, golf expertise and editorial independence are the foundation of everything we publish.

Independence: Editorial decisions cannot be bought with sponsorship, gifts or pressure from partners.

02

Corrections Policy

Errors are dealt with quickly, clearly and in proportion to their impact on readers or on the people concerned.

  • Minor errors: Spelling or formatting errors that do not change the meaning may be fixed without a separate note.
  • Substantive errors: Wrong names, results, figures, quotes, locations or context must be corrected, with an update line added.
  • Transparency: When a change is significant, GIV states clearly what was corrected and when.
