Corrections Policy

Report an error

Email editor@vyraa.com with the headline or link, what specifically is wrong, and — if you have it — a source we can check. You do not need to be the subject of the story to report an error in it.

Every report reaches the responsible editor named in our masthead. We aim to acknowledge within two business days.

What we do about it

1. We check the claim against the original sources for the story, and against any new source you have given us.
2. If we were wrong, we fix the article and add a dated correction notice to it. We do not quietly edit the text and pretend the original said something else.
3. The correction is also added to our public corrections log, which lists every correction we have ever made.
4. If we were not wrong, we will tell you why, and point you at the sourcing. Disagreement about interpretation is not the same as a factual error, and we will say which one we think it is.

How we label changes

• Correction — we published something factually wrong. The article carries a dated note saying what was wrong and what it now says.
• Clarification — what we published was accurate but open to being misread. We sharpen the wording and say we did.
• Update — the story itself moved on. New facts are added with a timestamp; the earlier reporting is not deleted.
• Retraction — the story should not have been published. We say so plainly at the top of the article and explain what went wrong. Retracted stories stay up, marked as retracted, rather than disappearing.
• Typos — spelling and grammar fixes that do not change meaning are made without a notice.

Unpublishing requests

We do not remove accurate stories on request, including from people who are unhappy to be in them. We will consider removal or anonymisation in narrow cases — a genuine safety risk, a legal requirement, or a story about a minor. Ask at editor@vyraa.com and expect us to explain our reasoning either way.

Errors from our newsroom systems

Vyraa uses an AI-assisted reporting system, described in full in our masthead. When an error comes from that system rather than from a source, we correct it the same way and to the same standard — and we fix the system so it does not recur. “The software did it” is not a defence, and we will not use it as one. A named human is accountable for everything published here.
