Editorial policy
This policy applies to all pages on JohnTernusCEO.com.
Purpose
Publish original, sourced information about John Ternus and related Apple leadership history. Serve readers and search engines with clear answers, not with keyword pages.
Independence
We are not Apple. We are not John Ternus. We do not claim interviews we did not conduct. We do not present speculation as fact.
Source hierarchy
- Apple official channels and SEC filings
- Major international newsrooms
- Other reputable publications, used cautiously
- Never: anonymous blogs as primary evidence for biographical facts
Labels on news
When a development is moving:
- CONFIRMED — Apple or another primary document, or multiple top-tier newsrooms in agreement on a hard fact
- REPORTED — reputable outlet, often with unnamed sources; we name the outlet
- ANALYSIS — our synthesis
- UNCONFIRMED — rumor, product leaks, unsourced social posts
Quotes
Short official quotes are allowed with a link. We do not fabricate quotes. We do not reproduce long copyrighted articles.
Dates
`Published` is the first publication of that URL. `Updated` changes only when the text changes. We do not refresh dates for freshness theater.
AI assistance
Software may help research and draft. A human publisher is responsible for the published wording, source checks, and corrections. We do not mass-produce thin pages.
Conflicts
The publisher has no employment or sponsorship relationship with Apple. If that changes, this policy will say so.
Takedown and privacy
We do not publish private personal data. Requests about factual errors go through corrections and contact.
