If we named you, you get to answer
A register that publishes claims about named companies owes them a way to respond that does not depend on knowing someone. This is that way, and it is public.
Effective 3 August 2026
Who can respond
Any company named in a case, through anyone authorised to speak for it. We do not require legal representation and we do not require you to threaten us first.
What happens, and when
- Immediately. The case is publicly marked as awaiting a company response. That happens the moment the form is submitted, automatically, before any person has read it.
- Within five working days. We reply to you and publish your statement in the case, unedited, subject only to basic decency rules.
- If a fact is wrong. It is corrected as a Correction entry in the timeline, with the previous version preserved. Errors are fixed in the open, not erased.
Asking for a case to be removed
A takedown request is assessed against the editorial policy. The ground for removing a case is a factual error, not that the case is inconvenient. If the underlying sources were withdrawn or retracted by their publishers, the case fails our own verification gates and is withdrawn automatically.
