-ilyaCasino is an independent affiliate site run by Thorne Media Ltd. This page explains how our content is made, who checks it, and where our figures come from, so you can judge our reviews on their merits.
+This policy explains how we research, write and check the content on ilyaCasino, and where our funding comes from. We publish it so readers can judge our work on the same terms we hold operators to.
 
 ## How we produce content
 
-Every casino guide, review and game page is written by a named person with hands-on knowledge of the subject, not assembled from press releases. Our lead reviewer is Elena Marsh, a Senior iGaming analyst with nine years covering bonus terms, payments and live casino. When she writes about a topic outside that remit, she flags where her assessment relies on an operator's published data rather than direct familiarity.
+Our reviews and guides are written by people who work in the iGaming industry, not by generalists filling a template. Editorial oversight sits with Elena Marsh, a senior iGaming analyst with nine years in the field, whose focus areas are bonus terms, payments and live casino. Every page carries a named byline and a role, so you always know who stands behind a recommendation.
 
-We describe how things actually work rather than how they are marketed. A slot entry, for example, sets out the studio and the real mechanics: Gates of Olympus by Pragmatic Play is a pay-anywhere grid with tumbling wins and multiplier orbs of up to 500x, not simply a "popular" title. Provider coverage reflects the studios an operator genuinely offers, such as Pragmatic Play, Play'n GO, Evolution and NetEnt.
+When we describe how a feature works, we ground it in specifics. For a slot, that means naming the studio and the mechanic, for example Gates of Olympus from Pragmatic Play, which uses a pay-anywhere grid, tumbling wins and multiplier orbs. When we cover a game library, we reference the actual providers behind it, such as Pragmatic Play, Play'n GO, Evolution and NetEnt, rather than vague claims about "top software".
 
 ## How we review and fact-check
 
-Each page carries a byline and a last-reviewed date, which maps to the lastmod field you can see in the page's details. That date tells you when a human last checked the content against the operator's live site, not when the page was first published. We re-check pages when terms change, and we prioritise anything touching bonuses, banking or licensing.
+Each page is dated. The publish date and the last-reviewed date appear in the page metadata, and the reviewer byline tells you who signed off on the current version. When an operator changes its terms, its provider list or its banking options, we revise the affected page and update the last-reviewed date rather than leaving stale information in place.
 
-Reviews are grounded in specific inputs rather than adjectives. Where a claim depends on figures an operator publishes, our reviewer confirms it against the source before it goes live. If a detail cannot be confirmed, we either omit it or say plainly that it is unverified.
+We do not run first-hand play sessions unless our testing notes say we did, and for this operator we have no such notes. Where we cannot verify a claim ourselves, we say so and attribute it to the operator's published data instead of implying hands-on experience we did not have.
 
 ## How we handle bonus, RTP and licensing claims
 
-Bonus percentages, wagering requirements, RTP figures, deposit limits and payout times come from the operator's own published data. These numbers change and can vary by region, so we attach the same caveat wherever they appear: T&Cs apply, and you should verify the current terms on the operator's site before you deposit.
+Numbers carry weight in this industry, so we treat them carefully. Bonus percentages, wagering requirements, deposit limits, payout times and return-to-player figures are only stated when the operator publishes them, and we present them as the operator's own figures. A stated RTP such as the 96.5% quoted for Gates of Olympus reflects the provider's published theoretical return over a long run, not a promise about any single session.
 
-Licensing is stated exactly as issued. Where we name a licence, we reproduce the authority and number as supplied rather than paraphrasing them, and we point readers to the operator's own licensing information. For the deals we cover, see our [bonuses guide]({{< relref "bonuses.md" >}}). We never guarantee winnings, present gambling as a way to make money, or suggest any approach can beat the built-in house edge.
+Bonus and RTP figures change and often depend on conditions, so we attach a clear caveat: T&Cs apply, and you should verify the current terms on the operator's own site before depositing. Licensing details are reproduced exactly as issued. This site's content relates to operators licensed by the Malta Gaming Authority under licence MGA/XXX/XXXX; we quote such references verbatim and never paraphrase a licence number.
 
 ## Corrections policy
 
-If we get something wrong, we fix it and update the last-reviewed date so the change is visible. Spotted an error or an out-of-date figure? Email hello@luckythorne.example with the page and the detail in question, and we will check it against the operator's current information. Substantive corrections are made to the page itself rather than buried in a footnote.
+If we get something wrong, we fix it. Readers can report an error to hello@luckythorne.example, and we review every report. When a correction is warranted, we amend the page, refresh the last-reviewed date and, where the change is material, note what was updated. We would rather correct a detail quickly than defend a mistake.
 
 ## Advertising and independence
 
-Thorne Media Ltd earns commission when readers sign up through some of the links on this site. That is how the site is funded, and it never buys a better rating or a softer review. Commercial arrangements are kept separate from editorial judgement: the reviewer's assessment is not shown to commercial partners before publication, and a payout does not change what we write. You can read more in our [affiliate disclosure]({{< relref "about-review.md" >}}).
+ilyaCasino is an independent affiliate. We may earn a commission when a reader signs up with an operator through our links, and that is how the site is funded. Commercial relationships never buy a better rating or a softer review: the team that writes and scores our content works separately from any commercial arrangement, and our editorial ratings are set on the same criteria for every operator, paid partner or not. Where a page contains affiliate links, we flag this through our affiliate disclosure. For more on our people and our approach, see our [review methodology]({{< relref "about-review.md" >}}).
