THE SLOUGH HOUSE FILES

How the archive works

Sources & policies

The confidence labels, correction process and commercial boundaries behind this independent fan guide.

Confirmed

Primary evidence

Apple, production companies, credited crew, official public bodies or directly verifiable screen evidence.

Reported

Credible coverage

Named publications, local reporting or attributable interviews where every detail is not officially confirmed.

Composite

Screen geography

Multiple exteriors, interiors, alleys or rooftops edited together as one fictional place.

Editorial approach

Plot summaries and analysis are original writing. The site avoids transcripts, reconstructed dialogue and large copyrighted excerpts. Predictions are labelled; unverified social posts are not converted into facts through repetition.

Corrections

Corrections should identify the page, proposed change and strongest available source. Material changes receive a new fact-check date.

Affiliate policy

The site currently uses ordinary retailer and booking links with no affiliate tracking. If commercial tracking is activated, every affected module and action will be marked Ad · Affiliate link before engagement. Payment will never change evidence labels or editorial recommendations.

Privacy

This site does not add analytics, advertising trackers or a submission database. Spoiler visibility and visited-location choices use localStorage on this device. The feedback form prepares a message in your email application; if you send it, your provider, Google’s receiving service and the Site editor process the email. Hosting infrastructure may process request data needed to deliver the pages.

No documented retention schedule exists for the feedback mailbox. Until one is adopted, do not send unnecessary personal data; use the same address to request deletion. Outbound services have their own privacy terms.
