Ethics Policy

We at BentFilmfest are committed to offering the best possible, fair, and honest content. Our ethical policy outlines the core principles that direct our proofreading procedures and preserve the trust of our audience.

Accuracy and Transparency:

  1. Verification of Sources: Before releasing any content, our team thoroughly examines the reliability and validity of the sources. We distinguish between opinion and reality clearly in our evaluations and analyses.
  2. Corroboration of Facts: Using primary sources, government declarations, trustworthy news sources, research papers, and other trustworthy information sources, we try to independently confirm the facts and claims. Credible evidence cannot support claims that are explicitly marked as hypothetical or omitted.
  3. Attribution and Transparency: We make every effort to provide readers with the ability to independently verify the veracity of our statements by including unambiguous citations or links to the original source of any information we utilize. All potential conflicts of interest, such as sponsored content and affiliations with production companies or directors, are declared.
  4. Expert Consultation: When specialized knowledge or experience is required, we consult with professionals in the relevant field or subject matter experts to ensure the accuracy and completeness of our material.
  5. Correction of Errors: Even with the best of intentions, mistakes can still occur. When this occurs, we promptly correct any mistakes or inaccurate information that is brought to our attention. Every correction comes with a detailed explanation of the problem and the steps taken to address it, which is also conspicuously highlighted.

Reader Engagement:

We want readers to actively engage with our content by pointing out any mistakes or discrepancies with additional information, changes, or comments. We are able to maintain the integrity of our platform while consistently improving the quality of our material thanks to your comments.

Responsible Reporting:

We handle sensitive topics with care. We respect people’s right to privacy and avoid anything that incites hatred or causes harm to other people.

Plagiarism and Originality:

Everything you see on BentFilmFest is original to us, unless we say otherwise. We make an effort to give due credit to all outside sources we use since we take their use seriously.

Correction Policy:

Please email us at contact@bentfilmfest.org if you think any material on BentFilmFest is misleading or inaccurate. We take any reports of inaccuracies seriously and will investigate them promptly to ensure that moving forward, our content is accurate and dependable.

  1. Fixing Small Mistakes: Usually, the article will correct the error directly. We’ll provide a brief explanation detailing the problem and the date it was resolved at the end.
  2. Fixing Big Mistakes: We might provide a special editor’s note at the beginning to call attention to the correction if there are significant errors that change the storyline.
  3. In the Worst Case: Rarely, if an article is shown to be inaccurate or deceptive, it may need to be completely removed. In its place, we’ll post a note explaining why it was removed.

A description such as “Updated: [date]” will be applied to the updated data to indicate when it was updated.

Commitment to Evolving:

  • We are aware that we should always work to enhance our ethical conduct.
  • We’ll keep you informed about industry standards and the top techniques for film journalism.
  • We appreciate your feedback so that we can continue to uphold the highest moral standards.
