This material is protected by copyright and cannot be reproduced or used in any form without the written permission of the owner. However, consent may be optional if you provide a complete reference to the source. All rights are reserved.

Copyright and Ownership:
Before publishing an article, the Authors must obtain written permission from the publisher if significant changes have been made. The content must be authentic, except quotes from copyrighted materials approved by the copyright holder and author.

  1. Use of Rights: The article provides ownership rights, in addition to copyrights, for various things such as employment, consultancies, stock ownership, honoraria, paid expert testimony, patent applications/registrations, and grants or other funding rights. When using tables and figures in future works, it’s vital to give proper credit to the publisher as the copyright owner of the article. Making copies of the article for personal use is allowed, but selling them is prohibited.
  2. Misconduct/ Plagiarism and Unethical Publication: When submitting articles to the journal, authors must ensure that their work is free of plagiarism. All submissions undergo a plagiarism check. In case plagiarism is detected in a published article, it is the responsibility of the authors to apologise to the original authors.

Additionally, authors must provide appropriate consent and authority details where data/ material is located. After acceptance of the article for publication, without the copyright holder’s permission, it should not be published anywhere in any form of language or version.

  5. Authorship: The corresponding author must verify the order of authors in the article. Any changes to the authorship list, such as adding, deleting, or rearranging, must be made before the article is accepted and with the approval of the journal editor. The corresponding author should provide a valid reason and consent for any changes. When it comes to adding or removing authors, getting confirmation from the author concerned who is either being added or removed is necessary. After accepting the article in exceptional circumstances, the editor will only consider changes to the authorship list. While the article is being reviewed, it will not be published. Any approved changes will be noted in a corrigendum if the article has been published online.
  6. Correction, Retraction, and Republication: A correction notice will be issued to ensure its integrity if an error is found in the article. The Crossmark button will show any updates made to the content, including corrections or retractions. Retraction notices may be issued for unresolved serious issues.

The journal is open-access and can be accessed online for free without subscription fees. The APC cannot be refunded under the following circumstances if (a) if the article has a copyright signed by the author (digital or scanned), (b) if the article is terminated according to the removal policy of the journal, and (c) if the article is withdrawn. 
  8. Indexing and Abstracting: Adding an article citation in the particular database will be performed by the database team only (e.g., an article citation in the Scopus database is processed by the Scopus team only). Neither the journal nor the publisher is involved in accepting or rejecting an article in/from the database. The journal/ publisher also does not influence the article’s processing time for citation in that database.
