About THRIVE

THRIVE is an independent fleet news service for the people who run UK fleets: stories through the working day, a briefing every Tuesday, and free datasets built from official sources. Every claim links to its source. This page records who publishes it.

Publisher

THRIVE is an independent UK publication, published under the THRIVE name. It is not owned by, or affiliated with, any vehicle manufacturer, leasing company, fleet supplier or advertiser.

Contact: hello@thrivefleet.co.uk, or the contact form. We read everything that comes in. With the volume of fleet news, not everything can run, but a story with a number, a date or a decision in it stands a good chance.

Editorial identity

THRIVE publishes under house bylines - THRIVE Newsdesk on news stories, THRIVE Editor on Insights and the Tuesday email - rather than personal ones. That is deliberate: it keeps the focus on the sourcing rather than the personalities. A house byline doesn't mean unaccountable: THRIVE stands behind every claim it publishes, links each one to its source, and corrects errors openly. Read more in Why THRIVE exists and our sourcing & fact-checking standard.

How THRIVE is funded

THRIVE is self-funded by its publisher. Article pages may carry automated display advertising served by Google AdSense, always labelled as advertising. Which adverts run is decided by Google, not by us: no advertiser sees a story before it is published, chooses where it sits, or has any say in what we cover. THRIVE carries no sponsorship and no paid placement; if either ever arrives it will be clearly labelled and will buy a slot, never a story. Nobody pays to be covered, and nobody pays to be left out. See funding and independence.

Corrections and complaints

Material errors are corrected openly and promptly - see the corrections policy. If we have named your organisation and you believe a claim is wrong, write to hello@thrivefleet.co.uk: contested claims are flagged under review while we check them, and taken down if we cannot stand them up.

Your data

What we collect and why is set out in the privacy policy, including how to have your data erased.
