PortugalGuide.net publishes informational content about Portugal, including destinations, travel planning, culture, food, nature and everyday life.

Our editorial approach is based on clarity, usefulness and accuracy. Content is prepared to help readers understand a subject without unnecessary complexity, exaggerated promotional language or misleading claims.

Sources and Research

When preparing content, we may use publicly available information from:

1. Portuguese public institutions
2. municipalities and official local authorities
3. tourism authorities and public information portals
4. transport operators and infrastructure providers
5. cultural and heritage institutions
6. other relevant public reference sources

Where a subject involves information that may change over time, we aim to rely on current sources whenever reasonably possible.

Accuracy and Updates

We make reasonable efforts to keep information accurate and up to date.

However, transport schedules, access conditions, local rules, prices, opening information, public services and other practical details may change over time.

When important decisions depend on current information, readers should also check the latest information published by the relevant official source.

If we become aware that published information is outdated, incomplete or incorrect, we may revise or update the relevant content.

Use of Artificial Intelligence

AI-assisted technologies may be used during research support, drafting, editing, translation, language improvement, structure development and other parts of the content-production process.

The use of AI does not remove our responsibility to review content before publication.

AI-generated text is not intended to replace source checking where factual accuracy is important.

Editorial Style

PortugalGuide.net aims to use a clear, practical and informative writing style.

We avoid:

1. unnecessary promotional language
2. exaggerated tourism claims
3. unsupported statements
4. invented locations or facts
5. misleading descriptions
6. content created only to increase page volume

Articles should focus on the actual subject and provide useful context for the reader.

Commercial and Promotional Content

Editorial content and commercial activity should remain clearly distinguishable.

If sponsored, promotional or paid content is published, it should be identified accordingly where required.

The presence of a business, destination, product or service in editorial content does not automatically mean that PortugalGuide.net endorses, represents or has a commercial relationship with that entity.
