Corrections and Takedown

We take accuracy seriously. If you find an error in our data, or you are a provider who wishes to correct or remove your listing, this is the process.

Email ashwinsk@saralcare.com with one of:

  • Subject [CORRECTION] for record fixes.
  • Subject [TAKEDOWN] for full delisting requests.
  • Subject [DISPUTE] for contested affiliation edges or fares.

Or open a GitHub issue using the Correction or Takedown template.

Response SLA

What we need from you

For a correction:

  1. The provider ID or URL of the record (e.g., /providers/red-health-bangalore).
  2. The specific field that is wrong (phone, address, vehicle type, affiliation, fare, etc.).
  3. The correct information.
  4. A source we can cite — a website URL, a screenshot, a leaflet, or your written authorisation as the provider.

For a takedown:

  1. The provider ID or URL.
  2. A brief statement that you are the provider, authorised representative, or affected party.
  3. The reason: ceased operations, changed entity, privacy concern, factual error you do not wish to correct, etc.

For a dispute:

  1. The provider and hospital IDs involved.
  2. Your position: "this affiliation does not exist", "this affiliation ended on [date]", "fare is incorrect", etc.
  3. Any evidence (a public statement, a contract, a press release).

How we handle it

  1. Acknowledge within 48 hours with a ticket reference.
  2. Investigate. For corrections: we call the listed number, check public sources, and confirm the correct information. For takedowns: we verify the requester's authority and process the delisting. For disputes: we re-examine the source we cited and either update, annotate, or remove the contested edge.
  3. Resolve. Confirmed correction: record updated; diff visible in Git history. Confirmed takedown: record archived; no longer appears on map or API. Confirmed dispute: edge removed or annotated.
  4. Notify the requester of the outcome.

What is logged publicly

We maintain a public correction log at corrections/ in the GitHub repo so that observers can verify our process is real. Each entry contains: date, type, provider ID affected, brief description (no personal details), outcome, and date of resolution.

We do not publish: the requester's identity (unless they authorise), email contents, or any personally identifying information.
