Corrections

How to report a correction

If you believe a Cleartali calculator, methodology note, guide, route description, privacy disclosure, or support page contains an error, email the maintainer at the address below. A useful correction report includes the page URL, the exact section or result that appears wrong, the inputs needed to reproduce the issue when a calculator is involved, the expected result, and any source that supports the correction.

Do not send sensitive personal information, account numbers, identity documents, private credentials, or full financial records. If the issue involves a calculator result, use rounded or sample numbers whenever possible. Cleartali can usually reproduce a calculation bug from the formula, the public page, and a small set of representative inputs.

What happens after a report

Reports are triaged by scope. A calculation or formula issue is checked first because it can affect every visitor using that route. A copy issue is checked against the cited source, the page methodology, and the surrounding disclaimer. A broken link, typo, or metadata problem is handled as a content-maintenance issue unless it changes the meaning of a finance result.

When a reported issue is confirmed, the fix is made and verified before it goes live. For calculators, that means re-checking the math against independent test cases so the corrected result is reproducible. For written pages, it means re-reading the copy against its cited sources and confirming the page still meets the same content and accessibility standards every page is held to. Changes go through the same review and quality checks used for any other update.

How confirmed corrections are disclosed

Small wording fixes that do not change a result may simply be reflected in the page's review date. Material corrections — for example, a wrong formula, a misleading finance limitation, an incorrect guide table, or a statement that could change how a visitor interprets a result — are called out clearly on the affected page once fixed. A public correction log can be added later if Cleartali accumulates corrections that merit a separate archive.

The goal is not to make every page sound legalistic. The goal is to make the page accountable. A visitor should be able to see what the calculator assumes, reproduce the result, report a problem, and understand whether a confirmed issue changed the answer or only improved the wording.

Limits of the corrections process

Cleartali cannot verify personalized financial outcomes, lender-specific quotes, taxes, insurance bills, investment performance, local legal deadlines, or account rules from a visitor's individual situation. A correction report can identify a bug in Cleartali's displayed formula, assumptions, copy, links, or implementation, but it cannot turn a general planning calculator into a personalized financial, legal, tax, mortgage, or investment recommendation.

If you are making a material decision, confirm the result with a lender, account provider, official calculator, or licensed professional who can evaluate your complete facts. Cleartali is a planning aid: it should make the math easier to inspect, not replace the professional or institution responsible for the final terms.
