Editorial Policy

Data Centre 254 exists to make Kenya's digital infrastructure legible. Trust is the product, so here is exactly how our content is researched, labelled, and corrected.

Sourcing first

Every important number or claim carries a source and a fact label. Where a figure cannot be verified, we say so in the text rather than presenting it as settled.

Verification with dates

Directory entries and statistics carry a last-verified date. Kenya's infrastructure changes fast (capacity expands, licences get issued, cables land) so currency is part of accuracy.

Corrections welcome

If you spot an error, email us with the figure, the article, and a primary source. Verified corrections are made promptly and noted on the page.

Independence

Sponsored content, when it exists, is always clearly labelled. Sponsors have no influence over editorial conclusions, directory data, or the fact labels applied to claims.

How we label facts

Statistics in our articles carry one of four labels, so you always know how strong a claim is:

FACT

Verifiable from an authoritative primary source (regulator filings, company disclosures, official documents).

REPORTED

Stated by a credible media outlet or stakeholder, but not independently confirmed by us.

ESTIMATE

A reasoned calculation or industry projection when exact figures are not published.

DC254 DATABASE

Compiled by Data Centre 254 from operator announcements, filings, and verified public sources.
