2. Our Mission

Our purpose is to provide accurate, practical, and accessible information that supports women to start and grow businesses.

All publishing activity is aligned with this mission.


3. Editorial Independence

Editorial decisions are made independently and are not influenced by advertisers, sponsors, or commercial partners.

We do not publish paid endorsements disguised as editorial content. Where content is sponsored, it is clearly labelled.

Our recommendations are based on relevance, value to our audience, and alignment with our mission.


4. Content Creation & Review

Content published on Prowess may include:

  • Research-based articles

  • Expert commentary

  • Practical guidance and resources

  • Sector news and analysis

Articles are created or reviewed by experienced contributors and editors. We aim to ensure:

  • Accuracy of factual information

  • Clear sourcing where appropriate

  • Balanced and responsible presentation

  • Periodic updates where information changes

Where content includes opinion, it is clearly presented as such.


5. Advertising & Affiliate Transparency

Prowess may participate in advertising partnerships and affiliate programmes.

This means we may receive compensation where users click on or purchase through certain links. This does not increase the price paid by users.

Important principles:

  • Compensation does not influence editorial decisions.

  • We do not accept payment in exchange for favourable reviews.

  • Sponsored content is clearly identified.

  • Advertising is distinguishable from editorial content.

Revenue supports the sustainability of our publishing and social enterprise mission.

We do not:

  • Publish misleading or deceptive information

  • Use automated content without editorial oversight

If we identify inaccuracies, we will correct them promptly.
