GizStreet is committed to publishing accurate, reliable, and transparent technology journalism. Despite careful research and editorial review, errors can occasionally occur.
This Corrections Policy explains how GizStreet handles factual errors, clarifications, updates, and reader-submitted correction requests.
1. Our Commitment to Accuracy
We make reasonable efforts to verify important factual information before publication using reliable sources, with preference given to primary sources where available.
These may include:
- official company announcements;
- manufacturer specifications and documentation;
- regulatory filings;
- government and institutional sources;
- academic research;
- developer documentation;
- official statements;
- reputable news organizations and specialist publications.
When we discover that published information is materially inaccurate, we aim to correct it promptly and transparently.
2. What We Correct
Corrections may be made when an article contains a significant factual error, including incorrect:
- product specifications;
- prices or availability information;
- release dates;
- company or product names;
- quotations or attribution;
- statistics or research findings;
- technical information;
- descriptions of officially announced features;
- information presented as confirmed when it is actually a rumor or unverified report.
We may also correct other inaccuracies that could materially affect a reader’s understanding of an article.
3. Minor Corrections
Minor changes that do not materially alter the meaning of an article may be made without a formal correction notice.
Examples include:
- spelling errors;
- grammatical corrections;
- punctuation;
- formatting problems;
- broken links;
- minor wording improvements;
- typographical errors.
These changes are considered routine editorial maintenance.
4. Material Corrections
When an error materially affects the meaning or accuracy of an article, we aim to correct the information and, where appropriate, provide a correction or editor’s note explaining the change.
For example:
Correction: An earlier version of this article incorrectly stated that the device supports Wi-Fi 7. The manufacturer’s official specifications list Wi-Fi 6E support. The article has been updated accordingly.
The level of disclosure will depend on the significance of the error.
We do not intentionally make substantial factual corrections in a way designed to conceal the original mistake.
5. Clarifications
Sometimes information may be technically accurate but unclear, incomplete, or capable of giving readers the wrong impression.
In such cases, we may update the article to provide additional context or clarification.
Where the clarification substantially changes how readers are likely to interpret the original article, we may include an editorial note explaining the change.
6. Updates Are Different From Corrections
Technology news changes quickly.
An article may be accurate when published but later become outdated because of new information.
Examples include:
- a rumored product being officially announced;
- a company confirming a release date;
- pricing changing;
- software receiving an update;
- specifications being officially confirmed;
- a product being delayed or cancelled;
- additional information becoming available.
In these situations, we may update the article rather than issue a correction.
Where appropriate, the article may display an updated publication date or an update note.
A factual error in the original article, however, should be treated as a correction rather than simply being described as an update.
7. Rumors, Leaks and Developing Stories
GizStreet covers technology topics that sometimes involve rumors, leaks, early reports, and products that have not yet been officially announced.
We aim to clearly distinguish between:
- officially confirmed information;
- credible third-party reporting;
- leaks;
- rumors;
- predictions;
- editorial analysis or speculation.
If information previously reported as a rumor is later confirmed or disproved, we may update the article to reflect the latest reliable information.
If we incorrectly presented unverified information as confirmed fact, we will treat that as an accuracy issue and correct it where appropriate.
8. Product Reviews and Evaluations
Corrections to product-related articles may include changes to:
- specifications;
- compatibility information;
- pricing;
- availability;
- performance claims;
- software features;
- product comparisons;
- testing information.
GizStreet may publish both hands-on reviews and research-based product evaluations.
If an article incorrectly implies that GizStreet physically tested a product when it did not, we may revise the article to accurately describe the basis of the evaluation.
Our goal is to clearly distinguish first-hand testing from research, specification analysis, and third-party information.
9. Source Corrections
If an article incorrectly attributes information to a source, links to the wrong source, or misrepresents what a source states, we aim to correct the attribution.
Where possible, we prefer linking readers directly to primary or authoritative sources supporting important claims.
If a source later removes or changes information, we may update the article or source link where appropriate.
10. Headlines and Images
Corrections are not limited to article body text.
We may also correct:
- headlines;
- subheadings;
- captions;
- featured-image descriptions;
- charts or graphics;
- metadata;
- summaries;
- structured information associated with an article.
If a headline presents speculation as confirmed information or materially misrepresents the article, we may revise it.
Images may also be replaced or relabelled when they could create a misleading impression.
11. Removing Content
In most cases, we prefer correcting inaccurate information rather than deleting an entire article.
However, GizStreet may remove or unpublish content when:
- an article contains extensive inaccuracies that cannot reasonably be corrected;
- the underlying information is substantially unreliable;
- the article violates our editorial standards;
- legal or safety considerations require removal;
- copyright or intellectual-property concerns cannot otherwise be resolved;
- keeping the article published would significantly mislead readers.
Where appropriate, an article may instead be substantially rewritten or replaced with more accurate information.
12. Reader Correction Requests
Readers are encouraged to report potential errors.
If you believe an article contains inaccurate or misleading information, please email:
To help us review the issue efficiently, please include:
- the URL of the article;
- the specific statement you believe is incorrect;
- an explanation of the issue;
- reliable supporting sources, if available;
- your contact information if you would like a response.
We review legitimate correction requests and make changes where warranted.
Submitting a correction request does not automatically mean that an article will be changed. We will evaluate the available evidence and make an editorial determination.
13. Correction Review Process
When we receive a credible correction request, we may:
- Review the disputed statement in its original context.
- Check the sources originally used for the article.
- Compare the claim with current primary or authoritative sources.
- Contact relevant parties for clarification where appropriate.
- Determine whether a correction, clarification, update, or no change is warranted.
- Update the article and add an appropriate notice when necessary.
The extent of the review depends on the nature and significance of the issue.
14. Corrections Suggested by Companies or Subjects
Companies, developers, manufacturers, public relations representatives, and individuals mentioned in our coverage may contact GizStreet to request corrections.
We welcome factual corrections supported by reliable evidence.
However, GizStreet maintains editorial independence. We are not obligated to change accurate reporting simply because a company, advertiser, product manufacturer, or other subject disagrees with our editorial analysis or opinion.
15. Editorial Independence
Correction decisions are based on accuracy and editorial standards.
Advertising relationships, affiliate arrangements, sponsorships, product samples, commercial partnerships, or other business relationships should not determine whether a correction is accepted or rejected.
Advertisers and commercial partners do not receive special authority to remove or alter accurate independent editorial coverage.
16. Historical Articles
Older technology articles may contain information that was accurate when originally published but has since become outdated.
We do not necessarily update every historical article whenever technology, pricing, software, or product availability changes.
Where an older article continues to receive significant readership or contains information that could materially mislead current readers, we may update it, add context, or clearly identify its original publication date.
17. Transparency
Our objective is not to create the impression that GizStreet never makes mistakes.
Our objective is to identify meaningful errors, correct them responsibly, and provide readers with accurate information.
We believe transparent corrections strengthen the reliability of our journalism.
