Editorial Policy
Clockfresh publishes tool pages and practical timing guides. This page documents the standards behind them, so you can judge how much to trust what you read here.
Sourcing
- Guides that make factual claims cite their sources in a visible Sources checked section (for example, MDN documentation for browser behavior and public health references for sleep-cycle durations).
- Claims about how browsers throttle timers, audio, and notifications are grounded in documented platform behavior, and the tools themselves are built around those limits.
- Comparison pages state the date the competitor's features were checked and link to the competitor directly.
Claim safety
- We do not claim a browser alarm will ring if the tab, browser, or device is unavailable. Alarm and timer pages state the honest limits and recommend a native device backup for anything critical. See the reliability and browser-limit policy.
- The sleep calculator presents planning estimates, not medical advice, and source-based health context is kept separate from personal advice.
- We do not fabricate ratings, reviews, or testimonials in page content or structured data.
Review and updates
- Every guide shows its published and last-reviewed dates. The machine-readable
dateModifiedin each article's structured data reflects when the content last meaningfully changed. - Guides are re-reviewed when browser behavior changes, when readers report an issue, or during scheduled content passes.
- Corrections: factual errors are fixed in place; if a correction changes a guide's advice, the updated text says so. Report errors via the contact form.
Translations
English is the source language. Pages under /es, /pt, /it, /ru, /fr, and /de are translated with machine assistance and reviewed in priority order driven by real usage. If a translation reads wrong, please report it — corrections ship quickly.
Tooling assistance
Drafting, source checks and code changes may use AI tools. The September 5, 2026 source pass was an automated Codex review: affected pages identify that scope beside their sources. It is not a medical, coaching, kitchen or native-speaker review. Device results are recorded only for scenarios actually tested; untested conditions stay unverified.
