ViralPulse Editorial Policy

Updated 15 September 2026

ViralPulse helps readers discover clips and inspect their original context. We distinguish source captions, feed metadata and editorial explanation so readers can tell what has been checked.

Creator credits and source links

Clip pages show the creator credit supplied by the source feed where available and link to the source. These credits describe the feed's attribution; they are not independent proof of ownership, identity or a licence to reuse media. Creator media belongs to its respective owners.

Captions and summaries

A caption is not a transcript or a fact-check of the scene. We do not infer a person's identity, location, intentions or what happened outside the available context. AI-assisted text must not invent quotations, transcripts, testing experiences or evidence.

Reviewed context and dates

When a page contains reviewed editorial context, it should identify the source material and review date. That date describes an editorial check, not necessarily the date a clip was filmed or first uploaded. Unknown recording or publication dates should not be guessed.

Popularity and corrections

Appearance in the feed does not establish a verified view count or current trend. Unsupported popularity claims should be omitted. When reliable source material contradicts a caption or description, the affected text should be corrected or qualified. Existing pages may contain limited feed metadata rather than a full editorial investigation.

Partner play

The optional Play with Pulse action opens an on-site animation, then offers a link and a cancellable five-second countdown to a partner website. The animation awards no prize. Partner play is for adults 18 and over, subject to any higher local age requirement and the destination's terms. Promotional links do not verify a video's content.
