Governance standard

Semantec SEO Corrections, Retractions, and Change Record Standard

The standard states what must happen, who owns the decision, what evidence is required, and what blocks release.

01 · Intake

Submit a correction

Send privacy@semantecseo.com the page or asset, exact statement, publication date, supporting source, proposed correction, and reason. Product, account, or price issues may also use support@semantecseo.com.

Do not include credentials, full card details, another person's unnecessary data, or unlawfully obtained material.

02 · Triage

Classify the issue

Correction classes
Class Meaning Typical action
Typographical Meaning is not materially changed Correct without a prominent notice where appropriate
Clarification Wording is ambiguous but not materially false Revise and record internally
Factual correction A material statement is inaccurate Correct visibly and date the notice
Update The earlier statement was accurate but circumstances changed Update with effective date and history where useful
Source withdrawal Evidence is retracted, corrected, removed, or permission is withdrawn Trace and repair every dependent claim
Legal or privacy restriction Publication should be limited or removed Restrict, redact, remove, or route to specialist review
Retraction The central claim or asset cannot be responsibly maintained Withdraw the asset and state the reason where lawful
Restoration A restriction or removal is no longer justified Restore with an explanatory record where material
03 · Verify

Assess evidence and consequence

Review the controlling source, affected entity, scope, date, user consequence, rights, legal duties, and whether the same claim appears in tables, FAQs, images, metadata, downloads, prompts, structured-data candidates, or other pages.

Do not decide from the complaint alone or dismiss it because the page was previously approved.

04 · Contain

Use proportionate interim action

A disputed statement may be held, labelled, hidden, or removed while a material factual, legal, privacy, safety, or rights issue is investigated.

Interim removal is not an admission of liability and should not be used to suppress lawful criticism without evidence.

05 · Repair the source

Correct the canonical owner

Update the page, record, product source, policy, or entity that owns the fact before dependent pages are edited.

The change record should identify the prior wording, revised wording, source, date, reason, owner, and affected assets.

06 · Disclose

Publish a visible correction when material

A visible note is appropriate where the prior error could affect a purchase, legal right, privacy expectation, product decision, comparison, trust assessment, or public understanding.

The notice should be concise, factual, dated, and connected to the corrected statement. It should not repeat unnecessary personal or disputed information.

07 · Propagate

Propagate the change

Check every dependent page, link, summary, table, visual, document, email, prompt, sample output, provider record, schema candidate, and press fact.

A correction is incomplete while another live owner repeats the superseded statement.

08 · Withdraw responsibly

Retraction and removal

Retract or remove an asset when its central evidence fails, rights are withdrawn, the page is materially misleading, or the user task no longer supports publication.

Preserve a lawful internal record and use an honest public route, archive, redirect, or status according to the surviving user need.

09 · Close the loop

Requester response and review

A requester should receive acknowledgement and the outcome where appropriate. A person who disputes the result may provide further evidence or request review by an owner not responsible for the original decision where practical.

10 · Prevent recurrence

Recordkeeping and monitoring

Store the issue, source, decision, changes, reviewer, dates, notices, affected assets, and verification. Repeat or systemic errors should update the source, template, workflow, training, or review rule that caused them.
