Accuracy is fundamental to Varnarc's mission. Despite careful research, review, and fact-checking, errors can occur — rates change, policies are updated, and data can be entered incorrectly. When that happens, we are committed to correcting the record promptly and transparently. This policy explains how we handle corrections across all Varnarc content.
Reporting an Error
If you find an error on Varnarc — whether it's an incorrect interest rate, an outdated policy detail, a broken calculator, or a factual mistake — we want to know about it. You can report errors through:
- Correction form: Submit a correction report — the fastest way to reach our editorial team with specific details about the error.
- Email: editorial@varnarc.com — include the page URL and a description of the issue.
Helpful details to include: the URL of the page, what the error is, what the correct information should be (if known), and any supporting source or reference.
How We Handle Corrections
When a potential error is reported or identified internally, we follow a consistent process:
- Investigation. A member of our editorial team reviews the reported issue, verifies the current content against authoritative sources, and determines whether a correction is needed.
- Correction. If the error is confirmed, the content is updated with accurate information. The correction is made as quickly as possible — financial content corrections are prioritized.
- Transparency. A correction notice is added to the page indicating what was changed and when (see Correction Notices below).
Types of Corrections
We distinguish between different types of content issues:
- Factual errors. Incorrect statements of fact — for example, a wrong regulatory requirement, an incorrect eligibility criterion, or a misattributed statistic. These are corrected immediately with a correction notice.
- Outdated data. Rates, prices, or policy details that were accurate at the time of publication but have since changed. These are updated with fresh data and the "last updated" date is revised.
- Calculation errors. Mistakes in calculator formulas, incorrect default values, or computational bugs. These are treated as high-priority fixes, especially for financial calculators.
- Editorial updates. Minor improvements to clarity, grammar, formatting, or structure that do not change the substance of the content. These do not require a correction notice but are reflected in the page's update date.
Correction Notices
When a substantive correction is made, we add a visible notice to the affected page that includes:
- The date the correction was made
- A brief description of what was corrected
- The reason for the correction (e.g., factual error, updated data, calculation fix)
Correction notices remain on the page permanently so readers can see the content's revision history. For routine data updates (e.g., monthly rate changes), the "last updated" date is refreshed without a separate correction notice.
Financial Content Corrections
Errors in financial content — including loan calculators, investment tools, tax guides, and insurance comparisons — receive priority handling because of their potential impact on readers' financial decisions:
- Reported errors in financial content are reviewed within one business day.
- If a calculator or tool is producing materially incorrect results, it may be temporarily taken offline while the fix is implemented.
- Corrections to financial content are reviewed by a team member with relevant finance knowledge before publication.
- Correction notices on financial pages include additional context about the potential impact of the error.
Timeline
We aim to handle corrections within the following timeframes:
- Acknowledgment: Within 1 business day of receiving a correction report.
- Financial content corrections: Investigated and corrected within 1–2 business days.
- General content corrections: Investigated and corrected within 3–5 business days.
- Data refreshes: Handled on the regular update cycle for the relevant category (see our Methodology page).
Complex issues that require research or external verification may take longer. In such cases, we will acknowledge the report and provide an estimated timeline.
