Editorial Policy and Advertisement Standards

 

Effective date: October 1, 2026

 

Mission statement

We publish practical, relevant insights for real estate professionals, industry service providers and readers interested in homes and elevated living. Our goal is to offer clear, useful editorial coverage while sustaining the Site through ethical advertising, affiliate partnerships and sponsored features.

 

Purpose and scope

This Editorial Policy (“Policy”) explains how content is researched, selected, created, labeled, edited and maintained on PrimeRealEstateMagazine.com (“Site”), and how Prime Real Estate Magazine handles submissions, samples and commercial relationships. References to the “Company,” “we” and “us” mean the publisher identified at the end of this Policy. It covers editorial standards and disclosures, product research, sample costs and retention, advertising, corrections and the use of AI. It applies to our guides and features across real estate and lifestyle subjects, including text, images, audio, video, sponsored features, affiliate links, newsletters and social posts.

 

 

Standards and transparency

We follow applicable FTC requirements and guidance for endorsements and advertising disclosures. Paid content is identified as advertising, and relevant content clearly discloses supplied samples, affiliate commissions and other material commercial relationships. Disclosures appear with the content or links they concern. This policy and a site-wide notice do not replace those disclosures. Our editors choose what to cover and what to say. Brands, advertisers and affiliate partners cannot require favorable editorial coverage.

 

 

Independent editorial

Editors select the subject and content. The subject does not pay a fee for editorial placement. No advertising label is used unless a commercial relationship requires disclosure. Supplied samples and affiliate links are disclosed where relevant.

 

 

Sponsored features and advertorials

A business pays for placement. Editors review the supplied text for clarity and readability but do not independently verify every claim. Labels such as “Advertisement,” “Paid Advertisement” or “Sponsored Advertising Content” appear prominently at the top and wherever else needed.

 

 

Affiliate links

Purchases through these links may generate a commission for the Site. A clear nearby disclosure explains that we may earn a commission from purchases, alongside our site-wide Affiliate Disclosure.

 

 

Ads and display advertising

Ads displayed on the Site may promote outside brands that advertise with us, as well as Company-owned products, services or sister brands.

 

 

Research and submissions

Our research combines reporting, product information and direct experience where available. Editors may request samples, use products they have previously tried, or encounter products at trade shows and other events. Samples help editors examine products firsthand and make informed recommendations. Receiving a sample does not mean every item has been tested; published observations reflect the research or experience behind them. Brands and representatives may pitch products or story ideas, and we sometimes publish calls for submissions. Editors may or may not request a sample. A pitch, submission, invitation to submit or sample request never guarantees coverage, a positive review or inclusion. An editor whose assignments or available space do not accommodate a brand may refer its representative to another editorial colleague or to our advertising department. A referral does not constitute approval or a placement commitment.

 

 

Samples and all associated costs

Samples are supplied for ongoing editorial consideration in current or future guides and features, with no promised publication date. All samples are final, remain with Prime Real Estate Magazine or its editors and testers, and will not be returned. The magazine does not have the infrastructure to return samples. We do not accept loans or products requiring return. The supplying brand is fully responsible for arranging and paying every sample expense, even when an editor requests the sample. Prime, its editors and testers do not pay product charges, shipping, delivery, shipper or carrier fees, import or export duties, customs charges, taxes, brokerage, handling or other associated fees.

 

Please confirm these terms with us before shipment. Unsolicited shipments create no editorial commitment or acceptance of payment, loan or return terms and may be refused. Do not send products subject to return requirements or charges to Prime or its editors and testers. We may decline a brand, sample, advertiser or proposed editorial or advertising placement, including after a sample has been supplied. Restricted or unsuitable products may be refused.

 

 

Advertising and paid features

Advertising applicants may request rates and consideration through our contact page. Approval and confirmed placement require accepted written terms. Providing a sample or receiving a referral does not secure advertising placement. Paid features and advertorials carry a clear advertising label at the top and wherever else needed to identify their commercial nature. Editors review supplied content, but do not independently verify every sponsor claim. Sponsors remain responsible for truthful, substantiated claims and rights to their materials. Accepted written terms govern agreed placements, changes, cancellations and refunds.

 

 

Editorial process

 

1. Pitch and intake: Ideas originate from editors, contributors, brands or sponsors, including responses to our calls for submissions. Research and sample consideration follow the provisions above.

 

2. Draft creation: Writers develop content from testing, reporting or source material. AI tools may assist, with human editorial review of every draft.

 

3. Editing and compliance: Editors check clarity, readability, factual support, keyword accuracy and required disclosures. Sponsors must warrant the truthfulness of supplied claims; we do not guarantee their factual accuracy.

 

4. Publication: Content is time-stamped and may be updated or corrected later.

 

 

Editing and contributor responsibilities

Editors review content for accuracy, clarity and required disclosures before publication. Brand and contributor material is treated as a source, with unverified claims attributed or omitted. Contributors and sponsors must provide truthful, lawful, non-infringing material, hold the necessary rights and possess written substantiation for objective claims and supply it within three business days of our request. We may require it before publication. The Company reserves the right to edit, annotate, decline or remove any submission at any time and for any reason, subject to applicable law and accepted written placement terms.

 

 

Use of AI and automation

AI or algorithmic tools may assist with outlines, summaries, grammar, headlines, image generation, collage design, layouts, SEO optimization and metadata. A human editor reviews their output and revises or rejects it before publication.

 

 

Corrections and updates

Published content is dated and may be refreshed, combined, archived or removed for accuracy or editorial reasons, subject to applicable written placement terms. Material factual errors are corrected promptly, with substantive corrections noted in the article. We may refresh, merge or archive content for accuracy, SEO or editorial reasons. We may de-index or take down editorial content at our discretion, without prior notice, subject to applicable law and accepted written placement terms. Inclusion in an editorial feature does not guarantee permanent publication.

 

 

No professional advice

All content is provided “as-is” for general information and entertainment and does not constitute legal, financial, medical, health or other professional advice. Consult qualified professionals before acting on information requiring professional judgment.

 

 

Health, product claims and age restrictions

Our content is editorial research presented for general information and entertainment. Nothing on this site, including this policy, is intended as medical, health, legal, financial or other professional advice. Product coverage and editorial observations are not recommendations for treatment or a substitute for advice from a qualified professional.

 

We may feature wellness, beauty, cosmetic and other products intended to affect health or physical appearance. We do not independently validate their health, safety, performance or appearance-related claims, including claims accompanied by studies. Discussing a claim or study does not establish that it is clinically proven or that a product is safe, effective or appropriate for you. Consult a qualified healthcare professional before making decisions that may affect your health.

 

We may also feature alcoholic beverages and other age-restricted products. If you are below the legal age to purchase or consume a featured product in your jurisdiction, do not use the pages featuring that product or purchase or consume it based on our coverage. Alcohol coverage is intended for adults of legal drinking age.

 

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company disclaims all warranties and liability for direct, indirect, incidental or consequential loss arising from reliance on Site content. This provision does not exclude liability or rights that cannot lawfully be excluded and does not override accepted written agreements.

 

 

Third-party standards referenced

The following serve as guiding frameworks for our editorial practices:

 

– FTC Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising

 

– Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG)

 

– Society of Professional Journalists Code of Ethics

 

– U.S. copyright law and fair-use principles

 

Referencing these frameworks does not create a warranty or certification of compliance or remove obligations under applicable law.

 

 

Policy changes

We may modify this Policy at any time. Updates become effective when posted, with the revised date shown above. Changes do not override previously accepted written placement terms.
