Funding
FactCheckerLab is funded internally by RabbiiCo Pty Ltd. We do not currently accept external grants, donations, or sponsorship. We carry advertising via Google AdSense on article and homepage pages (excluded from this and other editorial-policy pages) — this is the only third-party revenue stream that touches the site.
No advertiser, sponsor, or commercial partner has any influence over which claims we choose to fact-check, the verdict we assign, or the publication of a particular piece. Advertising placement is automated by AdSense based on page content; we do not hand-select advertisers.
Editorial Independence
RabbiiCo Pty Ltd operates other product lines and consulting services. None of those engagements affect FactCheckerLab editorial. Where a fact-check touches a RabbiiCo client or partner, we disclose the relationship in the article — see the conflict-of-interest section in our editorial standards.
Disclosure
This page is reviewed annually and any change in ownership, funding, or significant advertiser relationship is reflected within 30 days of the change.
