1. Purpose
DataNet is intended to organize public transparency information responsibly. The correction process exists to review claims that published information is inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, misattributed, missing context, or otherwise in need of review.
2. How to Request a Correction
A correction request should include the DataNet page URL, the specific statement or record at issue, the correction requested, and any supporting records, official sources, court documents, public records, or other evidence.
3. Review Process
Correction requests may be reviewed by DataNet staff or administrators. Depending on the information provided, DataNet may update the record, add clarification, connect additional source material, archive a record, decline the request, or request more information.
4. Public Officials and Agencies
Public officials, agencies, representatives, and members of the public may submit correction requests. Requests should be specific, source-supported, and focused on factual accuracy or context.
5. Public Interest and Retention
DataNet may retain public-interest records even if a subject disagrees with publication, especially where the record is source-backed, part of a public report, related to official conduct, or relevant to transparency.
