How the words on this site get written, checked, dated and corrected. Short version: every page is checked and approved by the people who run the store, sourced to official pages, and fixed publicly when wrong.
Last updated: Applies to all editorial content
What this policy covers
The editorial library: the anti-cheat guides, the explainers on the free tools, the glossary, the comparison pages and the category introductions. Product listings are commercial pages for products this store sells; they follow the same honesty rules, and the meaning of the "Undetected" label on them is defined in Terms, Section 6.
Who is accountable
GCS Cheats, the store operator, is the publisher of record and answers for every page on this site. There are no guest posts, no sponsored placements and no third-party content. Pages are attributed to the organization rather than to individual writers, and this policy is the standing description of how that organization works. How the store is run, and how to reach it, is on the About page.
How content is produced
The store operator decides what each page needs to answer, edits it, checks it against the sources below and approves it before it goes live. Nothing on this site is published unreviewed, and a page that turns out to be wrong is corrected in the open (see Corrections).
Every page also lives in version control and must pass an automated verification suite before release - accessibility (WCAG 2.2 AAA), structured-data validity, link integrity and readability checks all gate every single publish. A page that fails any of them does not ship.
Sourcing
Guides about anti-cheat systems cite the vendor's official pages; the citations are listed in each guide's visible Sources section and in its markup, and we link out to those authorities directly. Structured facts (which anti-cheat a game runs, whether it is kernel-level, what kind of ban it issues) come from one shared database, and so does our detection rating, which every page labels as ours. The guides, the reference table, the shop's category and product pages and the products we suggest alongside each other all read that database, and a release fails if any page says a game bans hardware when the database does not record it, so the guides and the shop cannot silently disagree.
Detection ratings and build recommendations are our own editorial judgment, formed from running this store since 2022. They are clearly-labelled opinion, not vendor fact and not a guarantee - the guides say so on the page.
Dates and freshness
Guides carry a visible "Last reviewed" date that matches the date in their markup. That date changes only when the content substantively changes; it is never bumped cosmetically to look fresh. Catalogue data (prices, availability, product counts) is generated from the store's catalogue each time the site is rebuilt, never typed into pages by hand.
Corrections
If we got something wrong, tell us: email contact@gcscheats.com or message us on Discord (opens in a new tab). When a factual error is confirmed we correct the page and update its review date. Anti-cheat behaviour shifts constantly, so error reports from players are genuinely useful and get read.
Independence and advertising
Our editorial content exists to help you choose between products this store sells - that is its purpose and we say so plainly rather than pretending to be a neutral magazine. Within that, the guides tell you when a game is a bad idea to cheat in, and when a cheaper option or no purchase at all is the sensible call.
There is no third-party advertising, no affiliate linking, no sponsored content and no paid placement anywhere on this site. There are also no analytics or tracking scripts of any kind - see the Privacy Policy.
