## Editorial policy

What we publish, what we do not, and how we correct.

### What we publish

We write from sources a reader can check (FEMA, Ready.gov, the CDC, the Red Cross, utility and government reports, manufacturer manuals, long-running prepper forums) and we correct what we get wrong. We do not claim to have field-tested gear or lived through the scenarios we describe.

A page answers its question in its first lines, then goes into detail. We say what we know, what we do not, and how we know it, and when sources disagree we show both sides.

### What we do not publish

We do not invent people, quotes, numbers or experiences. We do not give medical, legal or financial advice: for those we point to professionals and official sources. We do not publish paid content.

### Sources

We prefer the primary source: the official guidance, the study, the vendor's own page. When we quote public discussions we say they are people's opinions, not facts we verified.

### Updates

Pages that depend on prices, rules or official guidance show the date we last checked them, and we revisit them when the facts change.

### Corrections

When we get something wrong, we fix the page and say what changed. [Send us the correction](/contact) with its source.

Dark Grid Prep is a survival magazine for American families who want to be ready when the grid, the economy or the supply chain fails: the threats (EMP, long blackouts, collapse, civil unrest), and how a household plans, stockpiles, communicates and secures its home through them.
