Editorial Policy
Our Mission
Onyx Club is committed to providing accurate, respectful, and evidence-based content about the lifestyle community. Our editorial team creates guides, articles, and resources that help members navigate the lifestyle with confidence, safety, and mutual respect.
Content Standards
All published content undergoes a multi-step editorial process: research, writing, editorial review, and fact-checking. We prioritize accuracy over speed and quality over quantity. Our content is reviewed by experienced members of the lifestyle community and, where applicable, by certified relationship professionals.
Expertise & Authorship
Our content is created by writers with direct experience in the lifestyle community, reviewed by editors with expertise in relationships, sexual health, and consent education. When we cite statistics or make factual claims, we link to primary sources including peer-reviewed research, professional organizations, and established community resources.
Sources & Citations
We reference established sources including AASECT (American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors and Therapists), peer-reviewed journals, and recognized authorities in sexual health and relationship science. All sources are linked in-line within our articles.
Updates & Corrections
Content is reviewed and updated regularly to ensure accuracy. Articles display their publication date and last-updated date. If we discover an error, we correct it promptly and note the correction. We welcome feedback from readers — contact us at [email protected].
Independence
Our editorial content is independent of our business operations. Reviews, guides, and recommendations are based on merit, not commercial relationships. We clearly label any sponsored or promotional content.
Safety & Consent
Every piece of content reinforces the principles of consent, communication, and safety. We never publish content that normalizes coercion, boundary violation, or unsafe practices. Our safety guidelines are developed in consultation with community safety experts.
