Published data governance
How TripCopilot keeps planning data current
Travel information changes. TripCopilot uses four explicit review clocks, clear owners and release gates rather than implying that planning estimates are live.
Calendar checks plus immediate triggers. A credible safety change, price mismatch, seasonal correction or broken-link report is reviewed when it is found, not held until the next scheduled date.
Current review record
These are catalogue-wide review dates, not booking guarantees. Always recheck live prices, entry requirements, health guidance and official travel advice before committing.
The review cadence
Safety advice
FCDO change signals are checked at least every 7 days and before release. Changed countries and every caution or paused product are reviewed against official UK foreign travel advice.
If evidence is unresolved, the affected product is paused or carries a caution. TripCopilot is not continuously monitored and never replaces official advice.
Planning costs
Representative transport, accommodation, daily-cost and currency inputs are reviewed at least every 90 days across regions, haul lengths and trip types.
A material mismatch is corrected and affected budget scenarios are rerun. Figures stay labelled as estimates because they are not inventory or quotes.
Seasons and weather
Best months, shoulder periods, temperature, rain risk and specialist operating seasons are reviewed at least every 12 months.
A season change or repeated mismatch triggers an earlier review. Product-specific evidence takes priority over a broad destination tag.
External links
Local references are checked in every build. Clickable external links receive a live network check before release and at least every 30 days.
A failed link is fixed, replaced with the correct source or removed. It is never silently sent to an unrelated fallback page.
What blocks a release
- An overdue or future-dated review record.
- Unresolved safety evidence for an affected product.
- A cost or seasonal correction that can change recommendations but has not been regression-tested.
- A broken local reference or failed public external link.
Reported problems enter the same review path. The correction is made in structured source data where applicable, then the catalogue, recommendation scenarios and complete static site are rebuilt and checked.
Machine-readable and inspectable.
The public refresh-policy record contains the exact maximum ages, completion dates, sources, triggers and failure actions used by the release checks.
