Dzaleka.com may work with selected partners on sponsored content, branded campaigns, and promotional collaborations that are relevant to our audience and aligned with our values.
We take this seriously and aim to keep a clear distinction between editorial work and paid content.
Clear labelling
Any sponsored, paid, or branded content published on Dzaleka.com will be clearly labelled so readers understand the nature of the content.
Labels may include terms such as:
- Sponsored
- Paid Partnership
- Partner Content
- Advertisement
Editorial independence
Sponsored content does not control our newsroom or editorial decisions.
Advertising, sponsorship, or partnership arrangements do not guarantee news coverage, favourable coverage, or influence over our independent reporting.
We reserve the right to decline any sponsorship or partnership that does not align with our publication, audience, or standards.
Accuracy and clarity
Sponsored content must be truthful, clear, and not misleading. We may review sponsored submissions for clarity, presentation, and alignment with our standards before publication.
We may reject or request changes to material that includes false claims, harmful messaging, discrimination, exploitative framing, or content that could damage reader trust.
Fit with our audience
We are open to collaborations that are relevant to our readers and community. This may include work connected to culture, education, community initiatives, social impact, ethical travel, development, youth, storytelling, and other areas that fit the purpose of Dzaleka.com.
No hidden advertising
We do not publish paid promotional material disguised as independent reporting.
If content is paid for, sponsored, or produced with a partner, that relationship will be made clear.
Final approval
Dzaleka.com retains final approval over how sponsored content is presented on the site, including labelling, formatting, placement, and whether the content is suitable for publication.
