Editorial policy
How our guidance is prepared
Our aim is useful, plain-English car-finance information with transparent sourcing, review status and commercial boundaries.
Scope and purpose
This policy covers GetCarFinance educational guides, comparisons, situation-led information and supporting tools. Its purpose is to help readers understand car-finance terminology, choices, costs and practical consequences without presenting general content as personalised advice.
Plain-English approach
We aim to define unfamiliar terms, explain trade-offs, use UK English and organise information around real decisions. Important qualifications should appear near the relevant claim rather than being hidden in general wording.
Source hierarchy
Sources should prioritise legislation and official regulatory materials, government and public bodies, official provider documentation and other reliable primary material. Reputable secondary sources may support context but should not replace an available authoritative source.
Authoring and review
Content is checked for clarity, factual accuracy, internal consistency, accessibility, practical usefulness and unsupported claims. We do not claim named qualified reviewers or completed approval where that has not occurred.
Regulatory review
Material affecting commercial or regulatory positioning is subject to appropriate review.
Corrections
Material errors should be assessed promptly and corrected clearly. Where a change significantly affects meaning, the page should record a meaningful updated date once a genuine review has taken place.
Commercial and editorial separation
Educational content is distinct from the commercial finance-options journey. Commercial calls to action should be recognisable, and editorial explanations should not promise acceptance, rates, whole-of-market coverage or a particular outcome.
Review dates
Dates represent actual preparation or review activity and do not automatically imply a substantive review.
Conflicts, panel limits and commission
BMNC Ltd trading as GetCarFinance owns and operates GetCarFinance, acts as a credit broker rather than a lender, and introduces applicants to a limited panel. It may receive commission from a lender or finance provider for an introduction. These commercial interests must not be allowed to obscure material drawbacks or qualifications in educational content.
