Corrections Policy

ApplianceNews.org is committed to accuracy, transparency, and accountability in our coverage of the appliance industry.

We make reasonable efforts to publish information that is accurate at the time of publication. Because industry news, product details, recalls, regulations, lawsuits, and company announcements can change, some articles may be updated after publication.

How We Review Correction Requests

Correction requests are reviewed based on the available facts, source quality, and relevance to the article. When appropriate, we may compare the article against primary sources, company statements, regulatory notices, press releases, public records, or other credible materials.

If we determine that a correction, clarification, or update is needed, we will revise the article as appropriate.

Types of Changes

Depending on the issue, ApplianceNews.org may make one or more of the following updates:

  • Correction: Fixes a factual error in the article.
  • Clarification: Improves wording or context without changing the core facts.
  • Update: Adds new information that became available after publication.
  • Editor’s note: Provides additional transparency about a significant change.

Correction Notes and Timestamps

For material corrections or significant updates, we may add a correction note, clarification note, editor’s note, or updated timestamp within the article.

Minor edits, such as grammar, formatting, spelling, or style changes, may be made without a formal correction note when they do not affect the meaning of the article.

Press Releases and Source Updates

If a company, agency, organization, or representative would like to provide updated information, additional context, or source material related to an article, they may contact us through our Contact page.
