Effective Date: 1 January 2026
Our Commitment to Accuracy
At Xplora Horizons Network (XHN), accuracy is not optional. It is central to our relationship with readers.
We publish rewritten updates based on reliable, publicly available sources to make global information clearer
and more accessible. Even with careful editorial review, mistakes can happen. When they do, we take
responsibility for correcting them promptly, fairly, and transparently.
This Corrections Policy explains how XHN identifies, reviews, and corrects errors, and how those corrections
are communicated to our audience.
What This Policy Covers
This policy applies to all content published on XHN, including:
- Rewritten news and global updates
- Headlines, summaries, and explanatory text
- Captions and descriptions for visual content
- Language refinements assisted by technology and reviewed by editors
XHN does not conduct original reporting. Corrections address how information is presented on our platform,
not the original reporting of external sources.
Understanding the Difference: Corrections vs. Updates
It is important to distinguish between corrections and updates:
- Corrections are made when information previously published by XHN is found to be inaccurate
or misleading. - Updates reflect new or additional information that becomes available after publication.
Routine updates do not imply that earlier information was incorrect. Content is removed only when the
underlying information is materially wrong.
Types of Errors We Correct
Material Errors
Material errors are mistakes that could affect a reader’s understanding of the facts. These may include:
- Incorrect names, dates, locations, or figures
- Misstated official positions or outcomes
- Errors in attribution or source-based facts
When a material error is confirmed, XHN adds a clear correction note to the article explaining what was
changed.
Minor Errors
Minor issues include:
- Typographical or grammatical mistakes
- Formatting or layout errors
- Non-substantive wording issues that do not change meaning
These may be corrected quietly without a public correction note.
How Corrections Are Reviewed
All corrections follow a human-led editorial process:
- An issue is identified by the editorial team or reported by a reader
- Editors review the content against original, approved sources
- The Publishing Team verifies the issue
- A correction is approved and implemented
No correction is made automatically, and no technology publishes corrections on its own.
How We Display Corrections
When a correction is required:
- A visible correction note is added to the article
- The note clearly states what was corrected
- The language remains factual, neutral, and concise
Corrections are made to inform readers, not to assign blame or express opinion.
Role of Technology and AI
Technology, including AI-assisted tools, may help flag potential issues or improve clarity. However:
- AI does not decide whether a correction is needed
- AI does not approve or publish corrections
- Final editorial judgment always rests with human editors
If technology-assisted processes contribute to an error, the same correction standards apply.
Reader Feedback and Error Reporting
Readers are encouraged to report potential inaccuracies. All credible reports are reviewed carefully and
respectfully.
If you believe an error requires correction, contact the review team at:
correction@xplorahorizonsnetwork.com
Submitting a report does not automatically result in a correction. Corrections are issued only after
editorial verification.
Legal, Ethical, and Policy Alignment
This Corrections Policy operates in alignment with:
- XHN Publishing Policy
- XHN Artificial Intelligence (AI) Use Policy
- XHN Terms of Service
- XHN Privacy Statement
All corrections are handled in a way that avoids defamation, respects copyright, protects privacy,
and minimizes harm.
Accountability and Transparency
Responsibility for corrections rests with the XHN Publishing Team. Corrections are treated as a core part of
maintaining credibility and public trust, not as an admission of liability.
Being open about corrections is part of serving the audience responsibly.
Policy Updates
This Corrections Policy may be updated as editorial practices, legal standards, or platform operations evolve.
Any revisions will be published with updated dates.
Our Assurance to Readers
XHN exists to provide clear, reliable updates based on verified reporting from trusted sources. When errors
occur, they are corrected openly and responsibly.
Accuracy is ongoing. Transparency matters. Trust comes first.
