Our Method

What follows explains how Bien Chaussé chooses its topics, checks what it publishes, then corrects its mistakes.

How We Choose Topics

Every article starts from a concrete question tied to the site’s theme (pickleball shoes). These are the questions that come up most often in searches. The answers rest on material drawn from reference sources, which each article cites. No article is requested or paid for by a company.

The Source Hierarchy

Sources are chosen in order of reliability:

1. sports or professional federations, public institutions, laws and regulations;
2. published studies;
3. recognized news media, general or specialized;
4. a manufacturer’s documentation, only for its own product.

No stores, no marketplaces, no retailers’ buying guides.

Currently, the site’s references break down as follows: 9 sources from official bodies or institutions, 3 published studies, 4 press sources.

How Each Fact Is Checked

Every piece of data — a figure, a rule, a trend — is tied to a source that anyone can access and that carries a date. Without a source, it stays off the site.

Before publication, each fact is compared with the text of its source. It’s removed if the source doesn’t confirm it, if the source has become unreachable or if it sells something.

Last check of the published facts: October 18, 2026.

Each article cites its sources and states, at the end of the text, when its facts were checked.

Independence

No content is sponsored, commissioned or submitted to a brand before publication. Links to other sites aren’t affiliate links: they lead to sources or to useful pages. No fake reviews, no flattering testimonials. No fictional authors: the texts are signed by the site’s editorial team.

Correction Policy

When a source changes or an error is spotted, the fact is corrected, or removed for lack of confirmation, and the pages that use it are redone, update date included. A page is never redated without a change to the text, and never given a date earlier than its publication.

There’s no form and no contact address here: the publisher doesn’t disclose their identity, and the site collects no data on its readers. Corrections therefore come from the sources themselves, not from messages. Any illegal content should be reported to the host (see the legal notice).
