Psychedelic Retreats Australia

Editorial Policy

Our compliance principles

  • We write informationally, never promotionally, about substances. No efficacy claims, no "treats/cures/heals" language, no therapeutic-outcome testimonials.
  • Australian psilocybin/MDMA and ketamine services are listed in a restrained "neutral mode": name, location, service category, and a contact link only — no pricing, no calls to action, no descriptions beyond a single factual sentence, no images beyond a logo.
  • We don't promote any activity illegal in Australia. International retreat pages state legality in the host jurisdiction, not in Australia.
  • We don't publish generic "what a retreat is like" descriptions without a specific, sourced operator behind the claim.

How we research and vet listings

Every listing's facts are sourced from the operator's own public website or another reputable public source, linked directly on the listing. Every listing shows a vetting checklist — legal jurisdiction, medical/psychological screening, facilitator experience, emergency protocol, independent reviews, and pricing transparency — marked "Stated" only where the operator publicly discloses it. "Stated" is not independent verification; it means we found it stated in the operator's own materials.

New and unclaimed listings are marked accordingly. An operator can claim their listing for free via our operator page to correct or add information, which we review before publishing.

Affiliate disclosure

Some listings include affiliate links — if you click through and book, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Affiliate links are marked rel="sponsored nofollow", and any page carrying one displays an affiliate-disclosure notice. Affiliate relationships never influence a listing's vetting checklist ratings or factual content.

Featured & Premium Partner listings

Operators can pay for Featured or Premium Partner placement (priority position in category and destination pages, and a badge). This tier never changes a listing's vetting checklist ratings or factual accuracy — it only affects where a listing appears, not what it says. See our operator page for current tiers.

Corrections

If you find an error, or you're an operator with more current information than what's shown, please use our contact page or claim your listing. We aim to review corrections promptly.

Author & ownership transparency
