How to report incorrect information on a listing, how reports are reviewed, and how ownership disputes are handled.

Reporting and Corrections Policy

How to report inaccurate tool information, request corrections, and raise ownership, privacy, intellectual-property, or impersonation concerns on Try.Tools.

Proposed effective date: December 13, 2026 Contact: [email protected]
Reporting is open to everyone. A report does not automatically change a listing. Try.Tools reviews the available evidence and determines the appropriate action.

1. Who Can Report a Problem

Anyone can report potentially inaccurate or inappropriate information about a listed tool. You do not need a Try.Tools account or a connection to the tool. Tool owners, users, and members of the public may all submit reports.

Administrative review determines whether a correction is accepted. A listing does not imply endorsement, partnership, sponsorship, or approval by the tool's owner.

2. What You Can Report

Each tool page offers a Report incorrect information link. The available categories are:

  • Incorrect website
  • Incorrect GitHub profile or repository
  • Incorrect YouTube channel or video
  • Incorrect social profile
  • Incorrect business profile
  • Incorrect contact details
  • Incorrect description
  • Trademark or copyright concern
  • Privacy or personal-information concern
  • Impersonation concern
  • Other

To report a user review that may violate our Terms and Conditions, use the report control on that review. If your concern is about who controls a listing, see Section 7, Ownership Disputes.

3. How to Submit a Report

Open the tool page and select Report incorrect information. The form asks for:

  1. The issue category and the affected link or detail, where applicable
  2. The information currently displayed and your suggested correction
  3. Supporting evidence, including up to five links to public sources and optional text
  4. A brief explanation of the issue
  5. An email address if you wish to receive the outcome; an email is required for trademark/copyright, privacy, and impersonation concerns

The report form accepts links and text, not file uploads. If documents are needed to assess a legal concern, our team may request them separately by email. Do not include passwords, payment card information, or other unnecessary sensitive personal data.

You may also contact [email protected].

Verified Tool Owners can propose changes to their listing's website and external links through the owner portal. Material or sensitive changes remain subject to review before publication; ownership verification does not automatically make every proposed change authoritative.

4. How Try.Tools Reviews Reports

  • Reports do not automatically modify public listings. Authorized staff assess the evidence and decide whether action is appropriate.
  • A report may be marked open, needs information, or escalated while it is being reviewed.
  • A report may be closed as approved, not approved (with a reason), or duplicate.
  • Replacing a link that is still valid generally requires verified-owner authorization or strong, authoritative evidence. Clearly broken, unrelated, or misleading links may be corrected or removed on sufficient evidence.
  • Staff make decisions. Automated checks may assist with factual verification but do not independently approve or reject reports.
  • If you provided an email address, Try.Tools may use it to request information and notify you of the outcome.
  • When an accepted correction changes a TTS scoring signal, the affected score may be recalculated and the update recorded. See the TTS Methodology and Score Disclaimer.
  • If a report is not approved, you may submit additional authoritative evidence for reconsideration.

Legal and sensitive concerns: Trademark or copyright, privacy, and impersonation reports follow a restricted review process. Such reports are not rejected solely because the reporter does not control the tool's domain. Where appropriate, Try.Tools may temporarily hide or restrict disputed content during review.

5. Information Visible to the Tool Owner

A verified Tool Owner may see a limited summary of ordinary reports about their tool, such as the category, affected detail, proposed correction, and status. Reporter contact details, explanations, and supporting evidence are not included in that owner-facing summary.

Trademark/copyright, privacy, and impersonation reports are handled through restricted channels rather than the ordinary owner-facing report summary. Information may nevertheless need to be disclosed where required by law or necessary for a fair legal process, subject to applicable privacy requirements.

6. Owner Corrections and Verification

Verified owners, including owners on the Free Tool Owner plan, may request corrections to inaccurate listing information. The availability of a Free plan does not guarantee automatic publication or Pro-level management support.

Try.Tools may require supporting sources or renewed proof of ownership when a requested change materially affects the official website, GitHub repository, social account, business profile, or another authoritative identifier. A newly submitted link is not accepted merely because a previously verified owner supplied it.

Approved changes may affect the tool's independently calculated TTS score. Purchasing a subscription does not purchase a higher score or bypass verification.

7. Ownership Disputes

If you believe a listing is managed by someone without authorization, or believe you are entitled to manage it, email [email protected] with a description of the issue and evidence such as control of the official domain or verified official accounts.

Try.Tools may request information from relevant parties, review the available evidence, and restrict management access while an investigation is underway. Administrators may confirm, revoke, transfer, or clear an ownership verification according to the evidence and applicable policies. See the Tool Owner Agreement.

Ownership verification confirms a relationship to a listing for platform administration; it is not a certification of the tool's safety, quality, reliability, or performance.

8. Your Information and Privacy

Try.Tools processes report details to investigate concerns, verify evidence, maintain records, prevent abuse, respond to legal obligations, and communicate with reporters where contact details are supplied. Access is limited according to the report's sensitivity and staff responsibilities.

We do not ordinarily publish reporter names or email addresses or include them in ordinary Tool Owner report summaries. Disclosures may occur with consent or where required or permitted by applicable law. Retention and your rights concerning personal information are explained in our Privacy Policy.

9. Abuse of the Reporting Process

Do not knowingly submit false claims, impersonate another person, misuse third-party personal information, or repeatedly submit reports intended to harass or disrupt a listing. Try.Tools may restrict abusive submissions while continuing to review genuine legal or safety concerns through appropriate channels.

10. No Guaranteed Result or Review Time

Try.Tools reviews reports based on their nature, complexity, evidence, and urgency. Submitting a report does not guarantee a correction, removal, particular outcome, or fixed response time. Mandatory legal response requirements continue to apply where relevant.

11. Your Other Rights

This policy does not restrict rights available under applicable privacy, intellectual-property, consumer-protection, or other laws, including the right to contact an appropriate regulator or court.

12. Changes and Contact

Try.Tools may update this policy as its reporting workflow, platform, or legal obligations change. Material changes will be communicated where required by applicable law.
