Editorial Policy

With regard to our editorial, the following sections detail our content policies and procedures.

It is our goal and our mission to bring you news and updates delivered as accurately as possible. We want you to trust us and believe in our objectivity and accuracy. The content on our site is practical as well as relevant.

Our wide variety of topics cover just about your every bits and pieces of health information you need. And because we aim to serve you, we filter certain types of information. We make sure that these are applicable to your personal health. We also highly rely on you, our reader, to choose the information that is most appropriate. As accurate as we try to be, always trust the opinion of your doctor above everything else. We’re simply here to supplement the facts they give.

Hence, always seek professional advice regarding your concerns and questions about the topics you’ve read.

So, without further ado, here’s the Editorial Selection Criteria for Original Content

Colon Health Magazine creates original content based upon the following criteria:

  • Relevance – These include issues that could affect how you manage your own health and those around you. Topics cover a variety of health news, drug and product launches, recalls, and alerts, health advisories, and expert commentary.
  • Clinical Significance – Included here are the latest medical findings published in a variety of well-known medical sites.
  • Trends – These cover seasonal interests including summer safety, allergy seasons, and colds and flu. We also dabble in public health awareness such as Breast Cancer Awareness Month and Healthy Heart Month.

Our Content Is Unique

Our content is reliable. While the online world is crammed with outdated and inaccurate information, we at Colon Health Magazine stand head and shoulders above the rest.

The news and stories we feature are based on editors’ selections. Our news articles are more than just a mere summary. The articles created contain interviews with the medical researchers and with objective experts.

  • Editorial Integrity – We have a journalistic responsibility of providing you with news, features, reference, and other information that’s distinctly different from each other.
  • Editorial Independence – We try to be fair, objective, and accurate reporting. Again, this is to reiterate our journalistic responsibility to the rest of the world.

    • Editorial Policy for Colon Health Magazine Editorial Staff

    Colon Health Magazine News is an independent media service. Our goal is to provide news, information, and educational materials to all our readers, professional or not. The content we create is free from influence by sponsors, partners, or other sources.

    Any one part of our editorial staff must fully disclose any financial or other interests that he or she may have in any drug, biotech, medical device, or other company perceived to have a strong foothold in the healthcare industry. The immediate supervisor was informed at the time of hiring. The supervisor then determines whether the interest presents a conflict and if there’s something that needs to be done to eliminate it.

    Our editorial staff is kept separated and distinct from staff dedicated to sponsors or partners. Each one is charged with the responsibility of providing objective, accurate, and well-balanced descriptions of latest events and issues. Our reporters diligently seek out stories or qualified experts for the commentary. They also seek objective commentary that comes from a qualified spokesperson. This is how we maintain balance. This is also how we ensure ethical behavior at the highest professional standards.

    News & Original Article Process

    During each working day, our journalists plan the daily news budget. These must contain the latest information from the most important medical journals, announcements from federal health agencies, and analyses on the latest health trends. Our experienced health reporters talk or meet with prominent medical leaders on a regular basis to get in-depth analyses, updates, and profiles that give our health news and content a perspective that’s unique to only us. Then, the original articles are carefully reviewed by our qualified staff editors.

    Our editorial staff gets their stories from several sources: selected peer-reviewed medical journals, medical conferences, federal or state government actions, and enterprise material derived from interviews with medical experts. We also believe that valuable content is available from sponsors, advertisers, and partners. We simply make sure that such content is properly and clearly labeled.

    As with our standard operating procedure, each completed story is reviewed by a medical editor for accuracy, appropriateness of medical language, and proper characterization. The story is also reviewed for style, flow, punctuation, and readability. This is only when the story progresses from editing to publishing.

    Licensed Content

    When we license health and wellness content from third parties for publication, our senior editorial editors review the policies and procedures for consistency and without conflict of interest. Thus, content is accurate, timely, and relevant at all times.

    Sponsored Content and Advertising

    As you access our web site, you will see that some content, buttons, badges, and banners are labeled Sponsored, From Our Sponsor, or Advertisement. This content is not subject to the editorial policy. Content, buttons, badges, or banners labeled From Our Sponsor are still subject to policy established.

    OUR POLICY REGARDING DMCA TAKEDOWN NOTICES: The Digital Millennium Copyright Act was passed by the United States Congress to protect the interest of the copyright owners on the digital space within the United States and not Internationally. We have a fine bunch of copyright lawyers with a complete knowledge of the DMCA and therefore enables us to have a thorough and complete understanding of the DMCA and who it applies to.

    USE AND ABUSE OF THE DMCA TAKEDOWN REQUEST PROCESS: DMCA takedown notices unfortunately are being used as an an easy way for many United States marketing companies and/or individuals to get copyrighted information pulled from sites. The process is abused when people request the takedown of perfectly legal content and images. DMCA Takedown Notices can have substantial implications on a website’s online presence. Takedown Notices can interrupt access to one’s site, potential disrupt or halt their business, and can possibly result in the deletion of their site’s user comments and feedback. With these potentially serious consequences in mind.

    Our Copyright Policy is confined to drafting and following the laws of Intellectual Property Rights and related issues in our jurisdiction domain of India. Having said that:

    1) We respect the intellectual property rights of others. It is our policy to respond to any legitimate claim that Content posted on the Service infringes the copyright or other intellectual property infringement (“Infringement”) of any person related to issues in India and governed by Indian law. We also respect the legitimate copyrights and complaints of foreign entities.

You may be held accountable for damages (including costs and attorneys’ fees) for misrepresenting that any Content is infringing your copyright.

    Those submitting a DMCA notice for material on which you own a copyright, it’s important to consider if the manner in which the material is used falls under fair use, also the fact that the DMCA is applicable to only the United States laws and not those of India. We will not remove content or images merely because a DMCA Takedown Notice has been issued to us or any of our hosting providers. We are not a United States entity, and do not fall under such jurisdiction. If you are not sure material located on or linked-to our sites infringes please be advised that they may be liable for damages (including costs and attorneys’ fees) if they materially misrepresent that material or activity is infringing, and they have Indian jurisdiction – and we have and will seek to collect those damages.
