SpecBeacon source policy

Last updated: March 30, 2026

SpecBeacon uses a restricted source policy for public game pages. The goal is to keep official performance rows and game metadata useful without relying on unapproved scraping or copied editorial content.

• Public performance rows are restricted to official system requirements, official publisher charts, and official support documentation.
• Game images are sourced from approved metadata providers or official game pages when available.
• Third-party benchmark articles may be reviewed internally, but they are not used as production row sources unless the commercial-use policy changes.
• Pages are written as original summaries and guidance, not as copies of store copy or review text.
• Official coverage may be intentionally conservative when only limited approved source data is available.
