Canopy Press publishes analysis that readers use to make real decisions about money, work, tools, and performance. That responsibility only works if we are quick to correct ourselves when we get something wrong. This page explains how we handle errors — what counts as a correction, how to report one, and what you can expect from us when you do.
Our commitment
Accuracy is non-negotiable. If a published article contains a factual error — a wrong number, a misquoted source, an out-of-date IRS limit, a broken comparison — we fix it. We do not quietly edit and pretend nothing happened. We do not leave incorrect content live while we "review."
This commitment applies to every article, regardless of who wrote the first draft — whether it was AI-assisted (most of our coverage is) or written entirely by a human editor. Our editorial standard does not change based on the production method.
How to report an error
Email [email protected] with:
- The URL of the article
- The specific claim or section you believe is wrong
- What you think the correct information is, and where you found it (a source link is ideal but not required)
You do not need to be an expert, a journalist, or anyone in particular. Reader-submitted corrections are one of our most valuable inputs. We read every email.
What happens next
We aim to acknowledge your message within one business day and complete an investigation within five business days. Most corrections take less than 48 hours. Complex disputes — for example, a contested interpretation of a primary source — may take longer; if so, we will tell you and give an updated timeline.
Our review process:
- Verify the claim. We re-check the original source, look for newer authoritative data, and consult subject-matter references where appropriate.
- Decide the response. If the article is wrong, we correct it. If the article is right but unclear, we clarify the wording. If the article is right and clear, we explain why and close the report.
- Update transparently. When we correct, we add a dated correction note at the bottom of the article describing what changed and when. We do not silently overwrite.
Types of update notes
- Correction: A factual error has been fixed. Original wording and the corrected wording are described in the note.
- Clarification: The article was not wrong, but the phrasing was easy to misread. The note explains the change.
- Update: New information has emerged (a Fed rate move, an IRS limit revision, a recalled product). The note explains what was added or revised.
For evergreen reference pages — IRS limits, calculator inputs, methodology pages — we update without an inline note when the data simply rolls forward as expected. The "Data as of" date on those pages reflects the current snapshot.
What we do not do
- Unpublish to bury an error. If an article is wrong, we correct it; we do not delete to make the problem disappear. The only reasons we unpublish are legal removal demands, duplicate URLs, or content that violates our editorial standards entirely.
- Pretend nothing happened. Material corrections always carry a visible, dated note.
- Accept "I disagree with your conclusion" as a correction. Reasonable people can disagree about interpretation. We will engage on substance, but disagreement alone is not an error.
