About JournalPlus
Independent. Precise. Swiss.
JournalPlus.ch is an independent Swiss news and magazine platform. We report on current developments in Switzerland and around the world, as well as on business, real estate, finance, technology, science, mobility, travel, health, lifestyle and other topics of social relevance.
Our aim is to present complex subjects in a way that is understandable, fact-based and balanced.
Our mission
Journalism provides orientation.
In an age of information overload, we want to offer our readers reliable information, well-founded context and carefully researched articles.
Our standard is to present the news in an understandable, transparent and independent manner – without unnecessary sensationalism and without political or commercial influence on our editorial decisions.
Our principles
Independence
Our editorial team works independently of political parties, companies and interest groups.
Advertising content and editorial contributions are clearly separated.
Quality
We research carefully and verify information according to journalistic standards.
Wherever possible we rely on several independent sources and place information in a comprehensible context.
Transparency
We value transparency towards our readers.
Factual errors are corrected promptly once they come to our attention. Substantial changes to published articles are marked accordingly.
Data protection
The protection of personal data is of great importance to us.
We handle data responsibly and refrain from collecting more than is necessary.
Further information can be found in our privacy policy.
AI-assisted support
JournalPlus uses modern technology and artificial intelligence to support editorial processes.
AI can assist in particular with research, analysis, structuring, translation and linguistic refinement.
Journalistic responsibility remains with the editorial team at all times. Every published contribution is reviewed against our quality standards before publication.
Editorial team and ownership
JournalPlus.ch is currently operated by Aare Beratung Akcan.
The editorial team follows the principles of the Swiss Press Council and Swiss journalistic standards.
Funding
JournalPlus.ch is funded through advertising, sponsorship and partnerships, and in future through voluntary reader contributions and digital subscriptions.
Advertising content is clearly identified and has no influence on our editorial reporting.
