This page explains how Salaryitis approaches content update policy across our coverage of salary, paycheck, and take-home-pay tools. We publish these standards openly so readers, sources, and partners can understand exactly how our content is produced, checked, and maintained. Because our content touches money and taxes, we treat accuracy as non-negotiable and remind readers that our tools are educational estimates, not personalized financial or tax advice.
Why we update content
Information changes — tax thresholds, prices, guidelines, research, and events all move over time. Salaryitis treats published articles as living documents and reviews them so readers are not misled by material that has quietly gone out of date.
Review schedule
Evergreen explainers are reviewed on a recurring cycle, and time-sensitive material is revisited whenever the underlying facts change. Each substantive review is recorded with a 'last reviewed' or 'last updated' date so readers can judge currency at a glance.
What a review covers
During a review we re-check facts and figures against current sources, refresh examples, repair broken links, improve clarity, and remove anything that is no longer accurate or relevant. Where a topic has changed enough to alter the guidance, we rewrite the affected sections rather than patch them superficially.
Transparency about dates
We show publication and update dates rather than resetting them to appear artificially fresh. An older date on stable, still-accurate content is a signal of honesty, not neglect.
