Editorial policy.

How this site decides what to publish, which sources it trusts, and what happens when something is wrong.

Who is responsible

Content is written and maintained by The Vibing Dev., the independent studio that builds World Clock Meeting Planner. There is no separate newsroom and no invented roster of editors. The studio is accountable for every page.

Sourcing standards

  • Time zone rules: the IANA Time Zone Database is the primary reference for offsets, zone names, and daylight-saving transitions.
  • Timekeeping standards: NIST and the Bureau International des Poids et Mesures are used for UTC definitions and leap-second context.
  • Scheduling research: claims about work patterns cite the original report or survey, not a secondary summary. If a number cannot be traced to a primary source, it is removed.
  • Competitor comparisons: features are checked against the vendor's public documentation. Pricing is described in general terms because it changes; readers should confirm current pricing on the vendor's site.

Review and update cadence

  • DST guides are reviewed before each northern- and southern-hemisphere transition.
  • Reference pages carry a visible updated date and a byline.
  • Tool pages are rebuilt on deploy, so conversion tables reflect the current IANA rules.
  • Recurring reviews happen at least twice a year, even when no rule has changed.

AI assistance

AI tools may be used to draft, edit, or check consistency. They are not treated as a source. Every factual claim about time zones, DST dates, or scheduling practice is verified against a primary reference before publication, and the studio remains responsible for the result.

Corrections

If a page is wrong, we fix it and log the change on the corrections page. Send corrections through the contact page with the URL and the specific claim. We prioritize errors that could cause someone to miss a meeting.

Advertising and independence

The planner is free and does not require an account. If advertising or affiliate links are added in the future, they will be labeled and will not change rankings or recommendations. Comparisons of competing tools disclose that this site is one of the options.
