Douglas Insights publishes quantitative research, and quantitative research sometimes contains errors. This policy explains what we treat as an error, how corrections are made and disclosed, and how to report a suspected problem in any Douglas Insights report, insight article or page.

## What counts as a correction

A correction is a change made because something we published was wrong at the time of publication: a miscalculated figure, a mislabeled chart, an incorrectly attributed source, a factual error about a company or regulation, or a typo that changes meaning. Corrections are distinct from revisions. A revision updates a report because the market itself has moved since publication; revisions ship as new editions with a change log and are part of the normal publishing cycle, not this policy.

## How corrections are handled

- Reported issues are reviewed by the Douglas Insights Research Team, normally within two business days.
- If the report was wrong, the figure or text is corrected in the published version and in the underlying model.
- The correction is recorded in the edition history shown on the affected report page, describing what changed and why.
- Buyers of an affected report receive the corrected files by email at no charge.
- Material corrections that could have influenced a purchase decision are additionally flagged to affected buyers directly.

## What we do not do

We do not silently overwrite published figures, delete edition history, or remove pages to hide an error. If a report is withdrawn entirely, the page states that it was withdrawn and why.

## How to report an error

Email research@douglasinsights.com with the report name, the figure or passage in question and, if possible, the evidence that suggests it is wrong. Anyone can report an error; you do not need to be a customer. We credit reporters in the edition history if they wish.
