This Privacy Statement explains how personal information is collected, used, stored, and protected when users register, submit manuscripts, participate in editorial or peer review activities, receive notifications, or otherwise interact with this platform.

The platform may collect personal information that users provide directly, including names, email addresses, affiliations, countries or regions, ORCID iDs, usernames, passwords, roles, areas of expertise, biographical statements, mailing addresses, and other information entered during registration, submission, editorial, peer review, or communication processes. The platform may also collect technical and usage information, such as IP addresses, browser information, access logs, and usage statistics, for security, maintenance, troubleshooting, and platform improvement purposes.

Personal information collected through this platform will be used only for legitimate scholarly publishing purposes, including user account management, manuscript submission and tracking, editorial assessment, peer review, copyediting, production, publication, indexing, metadata management, communication with users, journal administration, research integrity checks, and the maintenance of the scholarly record.

Access to personal information is limited to authorized journal managers, editors, editorial staff, reviewers, technical administrators, and service providers where such access is necessary for the operation of the platform and the editorial or publication process. Personal information will not be sold, rented, or used for unrelated commercial purposes. Information will not be disclosed to third parties except where necessary for publishing operations, legal compliance, research integrity investigations, indexing and archiving services, technical hosting, or other services directly related to scholarly publishing.

Authors, reviewers, and editors should be aware that some personal information, such as author names, affiliations, ORCID iDs, article metadata, correspondence related to publication, editorial decisions, conflict-of-interest disclosures, funding information, acknowledgements, and published article information, may form part of the scholarly publishing record and may be retained for editorial, legal, ethical, indexing, preservation, and archival purposes.

The platform applies reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect personal information against unauthorized access, misuse, loss, alteration, or disclosure. However, no online system can guarantee absolute security. Users are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of their login credentials and for ensuring that the information they provide is accurate and up to date.

Personal information will be retained only for as long as necessary to support the purposes described in this Privacy Statement, including journal administration, peer review records, publication history, legal obligations, research integrity, indexing, archiving, and preservation of the scholarly record. Users may request access to, correction of, or deletion of their personal information, subject to legal, ethical, editorial, technical, and archival limitations.

Users who do not wish to receive non-essential communications may update their account preferences or contact the editorial office. Essential communications related to submissions, peer review, editorial decisions, production, publication, account management, or platform administration may still be sent where necessary.

By registering for an account, submitting a manuscript, participating in peer review, serving in an editorial role, or otherwise using this platform, users acknowledge that their personal information may be processed in accordance with this Privacy Statement and the scholarly publishing purposes described above.
