Editorial policy

Useful, sourced and commercially honest.

Vantage Subsea is being built as an information, referral and future software hub. The site should earn trust before it tries to monetise attention.

Source standard

Project, policy, training and market claims should link to public sources where practical. Interpretation must be separated from verified fact.

Supplier standard

Directory entries can start as public-source candidates, but they stay labelled as verification pending until checked. Paid promotion must be visibly marked.

Security standard

Maritime security content should explain resilience, risk and governance from public sources only. Avoid tactical details, alarmism and unverified incident claims.

Privacy standard

Collect the minimum data needed for enquiries, newsletter interest and supplier listing requests. Do not forward enquiries without clear consent or legitimate follow-up basis.
