We want to get it right
Calmer Ears aims to publish accurate, up-to-date information about tinnitus and ear health. Even with careful research and review, mistakes can happen, and research changes over time. We welcome reports of errors from every reader.
How to report an error
Email us at [email protected] with "Correction" in the subject line. To help us check your report quickly, please include:
- the address (URL) or title of the article;
- the sentence or section you believe is wrong;
- what you believe is correct, and why;
- a link to a reliable source that supports the correction, if you have one, such as a peer-reviewed study or guidance from a public health organization.
You do not need to be an expert to report a problem. Broken links, confusing wording, and outdated information are also helpful to report.
What happens next
- We aim to acknowledge your message within 5 business days.
- Our editorial team reviews the article against the original sources and any sources you provide.
- If we confirm an error, we correct the article promptly and update its "last updated" date.
- If we do not agree that a change is needed, we will explain why when we can.
How corrections are shown
Small fixes that do not change the meaning of an article, such as typos, formatting, or broken links, are corrected without a note. When a correction changes the meaning of information in a meaningful way, for example a fact, a number, or a safety point, we add a short note to the article describing what was changed and when.
Updates are different from corrections
We also review and update articles when new research or new guidance becomes available. These updates are not corrections of mistakes, but they are reflected in the article's "last updated" date. You can read more about this process in our Editorial Policy.
Please note
We cannot answer personal medical questions through the corrections process. For questions about your own health, please talk to a doctor or an audiologist.
