Corrections Policy

Jivaro corrects material factual errors, clarifies wording when meaning could mislead readers, and updates editorial content when later developments materially change what a page should say.

This page explains what qualifies for a correction, how readers can report possible errors, how Jivaro reviews requests, and how changes are documented across editorial content.

    Wording and time-sensitive facts are revised when reader understanding would materially benefit.

  • Reviewed in Order

    Correction requests are reviewed in order of arrival through Contact.

  • Accurate Content Usually Stays Published

    Jivaro generally does not remove accurate editorial content simply because it is unwanted.

Purpose and Scope

Jivaro aims to correct material factual errors once confirmed, clarify wording when the original wording could mislead readers, and update editorial content when later developments materially change what readers should know.

This policy applies to Jivaro’s editorial content, including news coverage, research articles, explainers, reviews, commentary, analysis, and similar published editorial work.

It does not govern routine design changes, navigation changes, or technical maintenance unless an editorial claim on the page is affected.

What Counts as a Correction

Jivaro distinguishes between several kinds of post-publication changes:

Correction. A factual error is fixed. This includes incorrect names, dates, figures, quotations, claims, sourcing, or other statements presented as fact.

Clarification. A passage is revised because the original wording was incomplete, ambiguous, or capable of misleading readers, even if it was not strictly false.

Update. New information, changed guidance, later developments, or materially changed circumstances are added so the page remains accurate and current.

Minor edit. Spelling, grammar, punctuation, formatting, or other non-material cleanup may be made without a formal note when the meaning does not change.

Not every disagreement results in a correction. Differences of opinion, framing, emphasis, or judgment do not automatically require a change, though factual assertions inside opinion or analysis pieces are still subject to correction.

How to Submit a Correction

Use the Contact page and choose the editorial or correction option so the request enters Jivaro’s normal review flow.

To help Jivaro review a request efficiently, include:

  1. The page title or exact URL

  2. A clear description of the possible error

  3. The specific sentence, claim, number, quote, or passage at issue

  4. Supporting evidence or a source, if available

  5. Any relevant date context, especially for fast-moving topics

Good-faith reports are welcome even if you do not have every item above.
