al-khwarizmi is an Arabic-first media and knowledge platform about the digital world, covering artificial intelligence, data, content creation, security and privacy, automation and programming, run by Impactedia as one of its media brands. This page explains how we choose stories, where our information comes from, how we write our guides, and how we correct mistakes.
What we publish
- Journeys: people, pioneers and ideas that built the digital world and are shaping its future, based on public records and what they publish about themselves.
- Organizations: companies, labs and institutions in tech and digital, based on their own announcements and official records.
- Tools: reviews of apps, software and platforms for digital work and AI.
- Guides: practical, step-by-step explanations in AI, data, content, security, automation and programming.
- News: tech news, AI developments and digital innovation, written from the official announcement of the company or institution concerned.
- Opportunities: trainings, grants and programs in tech, written from the organizer’s official call.
How we source
Every figure, date and factual claim in an article links to where it comes from. We prefer primary sources, in this order:
- The company’s or tool’s official sources: official announcements, technical documentation, release notes, pricing pages and usage policies.
- Institutional and research sources: government bodies, regulators, standards bodies, official security advisories and research papers, cited by name and publication date.
- Public databases and registries, when the organization publishes nothing itself.
We take facts from the companies and institutions involved, not from other media outlets’ coverage. When two credible sources give different figures, we show both and explain the difference rather than picking one. We do not publish statistics, quotes, awards or rankings we cannot trace to a source.
Practical before theoretical
A tech story or a digital concept is not complete until you understand its effect and how to apply it. That is why every guide ends with a step the reader carries out: a two-factor authentication guide ends with it switched on in your account, and a data collection guide ends with a working form. Each guide names the tool or version it covers, because interfaces and features change often.
Arabic and English
We publish in Arabic first, with an English edition. Both editions follow the same sourcing, correction and update rules set out on this page.
Tools, affiliate links and sponsored content
Some links in our Tools section are affiliate links, and al-khwarizmi may earn a commission when a reader signs up through them. Sponsored or partner content is labeled as such so it can be told apart from our own reporting.
No specialist technical or security advice
al-khwarizmi is not a technical, security or legal adviser. Our articles give readers the facts and steps they need to understand and apply a tool or technology, and they do not replace a specialist when decisions involve business systems or customer data. Our Disclaimer sets this out in full.
Updates
We review guides and reviews when the facts they rely on change, for example a new version, a pricing change or a new usage policy, and update the article and its sources.
Corrections
If you find an error, tell us through our contact page and include a link to the source that shows the correct information. We check every report. When a correction changes a fact, figure, name or a step in a guide, we fix the article and update its date.
Story tips and submissions
You can suggest a topic, a tool or an opportunity through the contact page. Please include a link to the original source. We verify it before anything is published. You can read more about who we are on our About page.
