Our commitment to accuracy
Chitran Newsroom works to publish information that is accurate, clearly attributed and appropriately contextualized. Accuracy includes names, dates, figures, quotations, links, images, descriptions and the overall impression created by an article.
Publication does not end our responsibility. We remain willing to examine credible new information, correct material mistakes and clarify language that could reasonably mislead a reader.
Decisions involving Our commitment to accuracy are based on available evidence, the seriousness of the issue, the effect on readers and whether the published record can be repaired clearly. The newsroom aims for a proportionate response rather than treating every typographical issue as equal to a material factual failure.
Transparency must be balanced with privacy, safety, legal obligations and the need not to amplify harmful information unnecessarily. A correction notice should explain the meaningful change without republishing avoidable personal details or unsupported allegations.
The process surrounding Our commitment to accuracy may evolve as publishing systems change, but the core obligation remains the same: receive credible concerns in good faith, review them fairly, correct confirmed errors and preserve an understandable editorial record.
What counts as an error
An error is a factual statement, data point, label, image, quotation, attribution or presentation that is materially wrong or creates a materially inaccurate impression. Typographical mistakes may also be corrected when they affect clarity or professionalism.
A difference of opinion, preferred wording or disagreement with a supported conclusion is not automatically an error. Editorial judgments can nevertheless be reviewed when they omit essential context or rely on evidence that is no longer reliable.

Types of correction
Minor corrections address spelling, grammar, formatting, broken links or other issues that do not change the meaning. Material corrections address facts or context that could affect a reader understanding of the article.
Clarifications may be added when the original wording is technically accurate but incomplete or open to a reasonable misunderstanding. Retractions are reserved for circumstances in which the central basis of a publication is unreliable and cannot be repaired through ordinary correction.

How to submit a correction
Send correction requests to support@news.chitranartschool.com. Include the article title or URL, the exact passage at issue, an explanation of the suspected problem and reliable evidence supporting the requested change.
Clear and specific requests can be reviewed more efficiently. Do not send passwords, unnecessary identity documents or unrelated personal information. Anonymous tips may be considered, although the ability to verify them can be limited.

How requests are reviewed
The newsroom may compare the request with article notes, source material, official records, archived versions and additional credible sources. We may contact the requester or relevant organization for clarification.
Review time depends on urgency, complexity, potential harm and access to evidence. A straightforward spelling correction may be handled quickly, while a disputed factual claim can require a more detailed review.

Correction notices
When a material correction is made, a notice may explain what changed and why. The notice should be concise, factual and placed where a reader can reasonably understand the significance of the revision.
Minor copy edits that do not alter meaning may be made without a formal notice. We do not use silent editing to conceal a material factual error or materially change the historical meaning of an article.

Updates versus corrections
An update adds information that became available after publication and does not necessarily mean the original article was wrong. A correction repairs information that was inaccurate when published or presented.
An article may receive both an update and a correction. Labels should reflect the nature of the change so readers can distinguish new developments from repaired errors.

Headlines, images and metadata
Corrections apply beyond article paragraphs. Headlines, captions, alternative text, search descriptions, structured data, navigation labels and social previews may be revised when they contain or repeat an error.
Because search engines and social platforms cache information, an outdated version may remain visible for a period after our page is corrected. We may request recrawling but cannot guarantee the speed of third-party refreshes.

Company-related reporting
Correction requests concerning Chitran International Online Art Classes, LLC are reviewed under the same factual standard, while recognizing that the newsroom is operated by that company.
Company personnel may provide records or clarification, but the final correction should accurately describe the evidence and should not turn a factual repair into unsupported promotional language.

Disputes and unresolved claims
If credible sources disagree, the article may describe the dispute rather than declare one side definitively correct. We may add attribution, uncertainty or context when the available record does not support a single conclusion.
The newsroom is not required to remove accurate, lawfully published information merely because it is unfavorable. Legal rights, privacy, safety and fairness may still require separate review.

Records and transparency
We may retain internal records of correction requests, supporting evidence, decisions and page revisions for accountability, security and legal purposes. Access to those records is limited according to operational need.
Published correction notices form part of the editorial record. We aim to preserve enough context for readers to understand a material change without unnecessarily repeating harmful or private information.

Contact and escalation
Correction requests should first be sent to support@news.chitranartschool.com. Mark urgent concerns clearly when they involve immediate safety, impersonation, significant legal risk or rapidly spreading misinformation.
If a requester believes a material concern was misunderstood, they may reply with additional reliable evidence. Repeated messages without new information may not receive a different outcome.
