Data services

Website maintenance

Regal Ticker may be supported through resources arranged by its publisher and through permitted website-revenue activities.

The website may introduce or use revenue sources described in this policy as it develops.

Possible Revenue Sources

Regal Ticker may generate revenue through methods such as:

Display Advertising

Advertisements may be displayed through:

Direct arrangements
Advertising networks
Sponsored banners
Contextual advertisements
Other approved advertising services

Advertisements should be distinguishable from independent educational content.

Affiliate Links

Regal Ticker may earn a commission when a visitor follows an eligible affiliate link and completes a qualifying action.

An affiliate relationship should be disclosed near the relevant content.

Using an affiliate link does not mean that a product or service is:

Suitable for every reader
Risk-free
The cheapest option
The best available option
Guaranteed to produce a financial benefit

Commercial Partnerships

Regal Ticker may enter into arrangements involving:

Educational campaigns
Tool partnerships
Technology providers

Before paid services are launched, Regal Ticker should publish applicable:

Pricing
Terms

Content Licensing

Regal Ticker may permit another publisher or organisation to reuse selected original content under a licensing arrangement.

A licensing agreement should not transfer editorial control over unrelated Regal Ticker content unless expressly stated.

Voluntary Support

The platform may introduce optional reader-support methods in the future.

Any such arrangement should be presented transparently and should not imply that payment is required to access material described as free.

No Outside Ownership Implied by Advertising

The presence of an advertisement, affiliate link or sponsor does not mean that the advertiser:

Owns Regal Ticker
Owns Regal Group
Controls the website
Employs the author
Approves every article
Is officially endorsed by Regal Ticker
Has authority over editorial corrections

A commercial relationship applies only to the arrangement that is specifically disclosed.

Regal Ticker may mention or link to:

SEBI
NSE
BSE
NSDL
CDSL
Listed companies
Stockbrokers
Banks
Mutual-fund providers
Financial applications
Government departments
Other organisations

Ordinary educational coverage does not mean that Regal Ticker has:

A partnership
A sponsorship
An affiliate relationship
An endorsement agreement
Official authorisation
Ownership involvement

A material commercial relationship should be disclosed separately where one exists.

Editorial Independence

Regal Ticker aims to protect its editorial independence regardless of how the website is funded.

A commercial partner should not be allowed to require Regal Ticker to:

Publish a knowingly false claim
Remove a material risk warning
Hide an affiliate disclosure
Suppress a confirmed correction
Present advertising as independent reporting
Guarantee investment returns
Recommend a product to every reader
Misrepresent regulatory registration
Conceal important fees
Remove supported criticism solely because it is unfavourable

A partner may provide factual information or request correction of a demonstrable error, but the final editorial decision should remain with Regal Ticker.

Commercial Content Versus Editorial Content

Regal Ticker distinguishes between:

Independent Editorial Content

Content selected and prepared primarily to educate, explain or assist readers.

Commercial Content

Content created or placed as part of:

Advertising
Sponsorship
Affiliate marketing
Paid promotion
A commercial partnership

Mixed-Purpose Content

Some content may contain both educational and commercial elements.

Where this occurs, an appropriate disclosure should explain the material relationship.

Advertiser and Sponsor Influence

An advertiser or sponsor may be allowed to:

Verify factual information about its own product
Supply product documentation
Explain current pricing
Identify an outdated feature description
Request correction of a factual error
Review whether legally required promotional wording is present

An advertiser or sponsor should not be allowed to:

Write an independent conclusion without disclosure
Demand a guaranteed positive review
Hide material limitations
Remove accurate criticism
Influence unrelated editorial content
Prevent correction of an error
Claim that Regal Ticker provides personalised investment advice

Affiliate Selection

Affiliate availability alone should not determine whether a topic is covered.

When affiliate relationships are introduced, Regal Ticker may consider:

Relevance to readers
Regulatory status where applicable
Product transparency
Publicly available fee information
Website security
Product functionality
Customer-service information
Material complaints
Suitability for the educational topic

Due diligence does not guarantee the future conduct, security or quality of an external provider.

Product Rankings and Comparisons

When Regal Ticker publishes a commercial comparison, it should explain:

The products reviewed
The comparison criteria
Whether affiliate links are present
Whether any placement is sponsored
Whether every market option was reviewed
The date the information was checked
Important limitations
Whether pricing may change

Paid placement should not be presented as a fully independent ranking without disclosure.

Financial Interests and Securities

Where an author or responsible editor has a material financial interest directly relevant to a company, security or financial product being discussed, Regal Ticker may provide an appropriate disclosure.

A financial interest may include:

Share ownership
Employment
Consultancy
Paid collaboration
Affiliate commission
A close personal relationship
Another material benefit

Not every diversified or insignificant holding will necessarily affect editorial judgment, but material conflicts should be disclosed where they may reasonably matter to readers.

No Paid Stock Promotion

Regal Ticker should not accept arrangements intended to:

Artificially influence the price of a security
Promote pump-and-dump activity
Conceal payment for stock promotion
Create false market excitement
Present a sponsored stock mention as independent analysis
Guarantee a target price
Promise assured returns
Encourage unlawful market manipulation

Any paid financial promotion must be assessed carefully and disclosed appropriately.

Regulatory Independence

Regal Ticker, Regal Group and Dilip Kumar are not presented as SEBI-registered Investment Advisers or Research Analysts.

The website’s educational content should not be treated as:

Personalised investment advice
A research recommendation
A stock tip
A trading signal
A portfolio recommendation
A guarantee of return

A commercial relationship does not change the educational status of the website.

Donations, Grants and Institutional Support

Regal Ticker may consider:

Grants
Educational support
Technology credits
Research access
Donations
Institutional partnerships

Where such support materially contributes to published content or website operations, Regal Ticker should disclose:

The supporter
The nature of the support
The relevant project
Whether editorial conditions apply

Support should not be described as unconditional when contractual restrictions exist.

Free Products and Services

A company may provide:

Free software access
Research-tool access
Event admission
Training
Demonstration accounts
Product trials
Other benefits

Where a benefit is connected to published coverage, it should be disclosed appropriately.

Receiving a free product or service does not guarantee positive coverage.

Reader Payments

If Regal Ticker introduces subscriptions or paid tools, payment should not purchase:

Guaranteed investment outcomes
Personalised stock tips
Market manipulation
Undisclosed promotional coverage
Removal of accurate criticism
Preferential correction decisions

Terms applicable to paid services should be published before users are charged.

Corrections and Commercial Relationships

Commercial content remains subject to Regal Ticker’s Corrections Policy.

When a material error is confirmed, Regal Ticker may:

Correct the content
Add clarification
Update pricing
Add a disclosure
Remove a link
Remove an advertisement
End a partnership
Publish a correction note where appropriate

A commercial partner should not prevent the correction of a confirmed error.
