Corrections & Retractions

Accuracy matters, especially when lives depend on the information. Here is how we handle errors and corrections on Jivan.

Our corrections policy

Jivan is a medicine price transparency platform. We take accuracy seriously because incorrect pricing or clinical information can affect real healthcare decisions.

When we identify an error or receive a credible correction request, we follow a clear process:

  1. Review within 24 hours. Every correction request is reviewed by a team member against primary sources (manufacturer data, government price databases, verified pharmacy quotations).
  2. Transparent label.If a price or clinical entry is corrected, the entry is updated with a “Corrected” label and a note explaining what changed and when.
  3. No silent edits.We do not silently alter published data. All corrections are logged and visible in the entry’s price notes field.
  4. Retraction if needed. If an entire entry is found to be based on unreliable data, we retract it rather than leaving a misleading listing live.

Price status labels

Every medicine entry carries a price status label so you know the confidence level:

Market checked

Price sourced from a verified market quotation, government database, or direct pharmacy survey. Highest confidence.

Derived from referenced

Price calculated from a market-checked anchor for the same molecule in a different pack size or strength.

Sourced from public database

Price retrieved from a public medical or pharmaceutical database. Medium confidence.

Estimated

Based on typical market patterns. Lower confidence — use as a rough guide, not a commitment.
