Editorial policy

Which topics we choose

Tidf writes about clothes: seasons, shopping, fabrics, care, storage and keeping a wardrobe in order. We choose questions that many people ask in any country, and we answer them as practical guides.

Where the facts come from

Every fact that can change carries its source and its date. We use:

• international organisations and standards bodies;
• published studies and research;
• consumer organisations;
• the pages of the shops and brands themselves, with the date we saw them;
• press that reports on the trade.

When an example comes from a single country or a single shop, we say so. When a figure is an illustration and not data, we say that too. Sale prices and dates change: always check your shop’s page.

How we write

We use artificial intelligence tools to research and draft. Before publication, every fact is checked against the cited source, and every text is read in full. We do not claim to have tried garments or shops we have not tried.

Articles are signed by the Tidf Team. The drawings and charts are our own.

Shops and brands

We name shops and brands only when they help explain something, such as an example of when a sale began. We describe them; we do not compare them to say which is better, and we do not recommend them. Our links carry no tracking or discount codes, and no shop pays us for a purchase.

Corrections and updates

If we find a mistake, or someone points one out to us, we correct it in the text and note the date of the update next to the publication date. If a fact changes, we update the article in the same way. You can tell us at contacto@tidfonline.com.

Advertising and editorial

Ads do not decide the topics or the text. We explain it in Advertising on Tidf.
