Where Tumut.org gets its information

Useful local information is only valuable when visitors can see where it came from, when it was checked and what Tumut.org has done with it.

Our approach

Source first. Local usefulness second.

Tumut.org often takes information from an authoritative original source and makes it easier to use for a Tumut-specific question. We do not claim to replace the original authority. For example, NSW FuelCheck remains authoritative for reported NSW fuel prices while Tumut Fuel Watch presents that information as a local comparison.

Whenever practical, live-data pages identify the source, retrieval time, freshness state and a direct link back to the original publisher.

How Tumut.org handles failures

Where a source or database is temporarily unavailable, Tumut.org aims to show a clearly dated last-known-good result rather than inventing a replacement value. Stale information should be labelled as such.

Corrections

If something is wrong, we want to know. Reports are reviewed against the original source before the public information is changed.
