Correction Policy | Mumbaiker

At Mumbaiker, we prioritise accuracy, transparency, and accountability in our reporting. In the event that incorrect information is published, we are committed to promptly correcting the error and informing our readers. This Correction Policy outlines our procedures for rectifying mistakes and ensuring the integrity of our content.

1. Premise

Mumbaiker is dedicated to delivering accurate and comprehensive news and content based on the available information at the time of publication. We acknowledge our responsibility to correct any errors that may arise and promptly inform our audience of the corrections made. Our goal is to maintain the trust of our readers through consistent and reliable reporting.

2. Updating a Report

• Clear Updates: When a story has been updated for corrections, clarifications, or additional information, we make sure to clearly indicate this in the article.
• Prominent Notices: For significant corrections, we display a correction notice at the top of the article, clearly stating the updated information to ensure transparency.

We encourage our readers to suggest corrections via email or through the designated section on our website.

3. Corrections

• Substantive Corrections: Any major corrections to articles, photo captions, headlines, graphics, videos, or other materials will be promptly published with a clear explanation of what was changed and why.
  
• Clarifications: When the language used in an article might lack clarity or when further detail is needed, we provide a clarification within the story. These clarifications may also be made to reflect new information or perspectives.

4. Editor’s Notes

• Significant Ethical Concerns: If a correction raises significant ethical concerns or challenges the substance of the article, an Editor’s Note will be added. This note will provide additional context and an explanation for the correction.
• Approval Process: Editor’s Notes are reviewed and approved by senior editors before being published to ensure they meet our editorial standards.

5. Other Correction Policies

• Reader Feedback: Errors identified by readers, particularly in comments, will be acknowledged and corrected by our community engagement team.
• Social Media Corrections: If incorrect information is shared on social media platforms, it will be promptly corrected or retracted as necessary.
• Blame Attribution: We do not attribute blame to individual reporters or editors for errors. Our goal is to focus on fixing the issue rather than assigning fault.

6. Reporting Inaccuracies

We value the input of our readers and encourage them to report inaccuracies using the ‘Suggest A Correction’ section at the end of each web story or by emailing our editorial team directly. We take all reported inaccuracies seriously and investigate them promptly.

7. Take-Down Requests

As an editorial policy, we do not entertain take-down requests. Instead, we focus on investigating claims of inaccuracy and publishing corrections when necessary. While fairness considerations may prompt updates or follow-ups on previous coverage, removal of published articles is not a standard practice.

8. Content Modification

We use advanced AI tools for content modification and correction to ensure updates are swift and accurate. If there is a correction or request for content modification:

• Please submit the correction details via email, and we will promptly make the necessary changes.
• AI Tools: We use AI tools like ChatGPT, Google Gemini, and others to ensure corrections are made instantly and accurately, including image updates when required.
