Dense hard coral growing on a shallow reef in Flores waters

Standards

The rules, and what happens when we break them.

How figures are sourced, how AI imagery is disclosed, and how corrections are handled.

In short

Riung Flores sources figures to named government agencies, academic literature or dated official pages, discloses AI-generated imagery, and corrects verified errors in public.

  • Named sources, or the figure is marked as reported.
  • AI-generated imagery always disclosed.
  • Corrections dated and left visible.

Four rules

What this site is held to

The same four as the homepage, with what each one actually requires.

Wooden jetty over clear turquoise water

Every number is traced

A figure points at a named agency, a dated page or peer-reviewed work — or it carries the word "reported".

Dense hard coral on a shallow reef

One number, one fact

The park is 7,303.16 ha on every page it appears on. A figure that varies between pages is treated as a defect.

Independent of operators

No paid listings, no commission on the Riung fleet. The one commercial relationship is named at every point of contact.

Imagery disclosed

Every photograph carries its source and licence. Where a picture is representative rather than of Riung, the caption says so. AI-generated imagery is labelled.

Corrections

In public, and dated

A verified error is corrected on the page and the change is dated. We do not quietly overwrite and we do not remove the record.

Pages carrying figures that move — fees, schedules, road status — show when they were last reviewed rather than implying they are current forever.

Frequently asked questions

Ready to put dates on it?

Riung boats are arranged locally, at the pier. For the Komodo leg or a full Flores itinerary, the reservations desk answers on WhatsApp.
