Editorial Policy

Last updated: December 2025

This Editorial Policy explains how content is created, reviewed, and updated on FreeSkinsHub.
Our goal is to give CS2 and Rust players clear, honest, and safety-focused information about gambling platforms and how we evaluate them.

1. Our Mission

FreeSkinsHub exists to become a reliable, safety- and fairness-focused resource that helps CS2 and Rust players compare platforms and identify more trustworthy options through independent research and consistent criteria.

We take responsibility for our content and aim to update or correct it when material changes or errors are identified. Our reviews focus on safety signals, fairness, user experience, and real-world reputation.

2. Our Editorial Principles

FreeSkinsHub is built around a few key principles that guide every review, guide, and comparison we publish:

  • Independence: Our opinions and ratings are not for sale. Commercial deals and affiliate partnerships do not override our editorial standards.
  • Accuracy: We aim to keep information as accurate and up to date as possible, especially for key platform details, safety-related information, and review updates.
  • Transparency: We disclose when we use affiliate links and how FreeSkinsHub is funded. See our Affiliate Disclosure for more details.
  • Safety-first: We prioritise safety, fairness, and responsible gambling over promotion. If a platform fails our key safety checks, we do not recommend it.
  • Player perspective: We review sites from a real player’s point of view, not just from marketing material.

3. How We Create and Review Content

Content on FreeSkinsHub is researched and written by the founder, a long-time CS:GO/CS2 player with years of experience using gambling and trading sites.
When we publish a review, guide, or comparison, we typically:

  • Visit and use the platform as a player when reasonably possible.
  • Check the platform’s public Terms & Conditions, bonus rules, and support documentation.
  • Check basic trust signals such as HTTPS and visible licensing or legal information where available.
  • Compare bonuses, odds or house edge (when available), and features against other platforms in the same niche.
  • Cross-check community feedback from sources such as Reddit, X (Twitter), and Trustpilot.

For more detail on our approach, see our About FreeSkinsHub page.

4. How We Rate Gambling Sites

When we rate or recommend CS2 and Rust gambling platforms, we look at a consistent set of factors, including:

  • Safety and legitimacy: reputation, history, visible legal information, and public feedback.
  • Fairness and transparency: provably fair systems where available, clearly stated rules, and visible odds or house edge information.
  • Rules and requirements: clear eligibility, limits, and KYC policies, not misleading marketing.
  • Payments and withdrawals: supported methods, payout speed, and how withdrawals are handled in practice.
  • User experience: interface quality, game variety, and how smooth it feels to actually play.
  • Support and issue handling: response quality from support and how complaints are handled where visible.

Our ratings reflect our assessment at the time of review and may change as platforms update their terms, policies, or user feedback evolves.

Operators can change terms, bonuses, limits, or policies at any time. We encourage users to always check the latest information directly on the operator’s website.

Platforms that consistently fail on safety, fairness, or reputation may be downgraded, flagged, or removed from FreeSkinsHub.

5. Affiliate Relationships, Advertising, and Objectivity

FreeSkinsHub is funded primarily through affiliate partnerships. This means we may receive a commission if you sign up, deposit, or play on some platforms after clicking our links or using our promo codes, at no extra cost to you.

  • We do not sell positive reviews or accept payment to list platforms that fail our safety criteria.
  • Commercial agreements do not guarantee a recommendation or a positive rating.
  • Platforms can be downgraded or removed if they no longer meet our editorial standards, regardless of any affiliate relationship.

We reserve the right to refuse collaborations that do not align with our editorial values, safety standards, and player-first approach.

We do not allow partners to preview, edit, or approve our reviews before publication. Final ratings and conclusions are always determined by FreeSkinsHub.

FreeSkinsHub may also publish sponsored content in the future. If we do, it will be clearly disclosed as sponsored.

6. Inclusion, Updates, and Corrections

Being listed on FreeSkinsHub is not guaranteed. Platforms may be added, downgraded, or removed based on our review criteria and ongoing monitoring.

The CS2 and Rust gambling space changes quickly. Bonuses, promo codes, eligibility rules, licensing, and even domain names can change over time. We aim to:

  • Update key pages, reviews, and promo lists to keep information as accurate as possible.
  • Re-check sites for major changes to safety, ownership, reputation, or Terms & Conditions.
  • Clearly state when an offer, code, or review was last updated where relevant.

Despite this, mistakes or outdated details can still occur. If you notice incorrect information, please contact us so we can review and correct it as soon as reasonably possible.

7. Community Feedback and Site Removal

Community feedback is an important part of our editorial process. We monitor public discussions and also listen directly to our readers.

  • If we receive credible reports of scams, non-payment, unfair bans, or serious issues, we investigate.
  • If a platform no longer meets our standards, we may update the review, downgrade its rating or position in our lists, or remove it entirely from FreeSkinsHub.

When we make significant changes to a rating or recommendation, we aim to reflect the reason in the updated review content.

You can report issues or suggest updates via our Contact page.

8. Responsible Gambling, Age, and Jurisdiction

All content on FreeSkinsHub is intended for users who are at least 18 years old, or the legal age for online gambling in their jurisdiction.
We do not encourage gambling beyond your means, and we emphasise that all gambling involves financial risk.

  • Only gamble with money you can afford to lose.
  • Set limits for time and money spent.
  • Seek help if gambling is causing stress, debt, or other problems.

FreeSkinsHub does not promote or target users in jurisdictions where online gambling or related content is restricted or illegal.
It is your responsibility to check local laws and ensure that accessing gambling sites is legal in your country or region.
