At IDbGLAM, we are committed to accuracy and transparency in all of our content. We understand the importance of providing our users with reliable and credible information, and we take the responsibility of correcting any errors very seriously. This page outlines our procedure for identifying, addressing, and correcting inaccuracies in our published materials.
Identifying Errors:
We continuously strive to guarantee that all of the information we publish is reliable, well-researched, and up to date. Nonetheless, we recognize that errors occasionally occur. Errors be identified by:
- Internal Review: Our editorial team regularly reviews published content to confirm its accuracy. If an error is found, we take immediate steps to handle it.
- User Reports: We encourage our readers, contributors, and users to report any factual inaccuracies, typos, or misleading information they come across. Feedback about potential errors can be submitted via our contact form or email at [email protected].
- External Sources: If third parties, like partners or topic matter experts, inform us of inaccuracies in our content, we will review the information and correct any verified errors.
Types of Corrections:
We classify errors into the next categories and handle them properly:
- Minor Corrections: These include typographical errors, formatting issues, and other minor mistakes that do not affect the overall meaning or accuracy of the content. These corrections will be made promptly, without requiring a public notice, unless the error impacts the content’s clarity or understanding.
- Major Corrections: If an error significantly affects the accuracy of the information (like incorrect facts, data, or misattributed sources), we will issue a correction. Major corrections are clearly noted on the affected page, and users are informed of the corrected information.
- Retractions: In rare cases where content is found to be fundamentally flawed, misleading, or unethical, we retract the article or post in question. Retractions are clearly labeled, and the original content is removed or marked with an explanation of the retraction.
Correction Procedure:
- Error Identification: Once an error is reported or discovered, it is promptly reviewed by our editorial team.
- Review and Verification: We investigate the reported issue, cross-referencing original sources or conducting further research to verify the claim. If the error is confirmed, we assess the severity of the mistake and the appropriate course of action (correction, retraction, or clarification).
- Implementation: Corrections or retractions are made as soon as possible, with clear communication to our users about what has been changed. For major corrections, we add a note at the top or bottom of the article, explaining the nature of the correction and the date it was made.
- User Notification: When necessary, we inform users of significant corrections or retractions via our website, newsletter, and social media channels. We believe in full transparency, ensuring that our audience remains informed about changes made to earlier published content.
Transparency in Corrections:
IDbGLAM is dedicated to maintaining trust and credibility within our community. We believe that transparency is key to building and maintaining this trust. All corrections and updates are logged within the original content, so users can see what changes were made and why.

We rely on our readers and contributors to help us uphold high standards of accuracy. If you spot an error in any of our content, please let us know by:
