Privacy Statement

The names, email addresses and other personal data entered on this journal site will be used exclusively for the stated purposes of this journal — namely the management of the editorial and publication process — and will not be made available for any other purpose or to any other party.

What we collect. When you register we collect your name, affiliation, email address and, optionally, your ORCID iD, biography and areas of interest. These data support submission, peer review, editorial communication and, where relevant, the crediting of authorship and reviewing.

How we use it. Personal data are processed only by the editorial office, editors, assigned reviewers and the technical administrator, on a confidential basis. Author names and affiliations are published with accepted articles as part of the scholarly record. Reviewer identities are kept confidential under the double-blind model.

Storage and sharing. Data are stored securely on the journal server. Article metadata (including author names and affiliations) are shared with indexing services such as Crossref, Google Scholar and OAI-PMH harvesters as an inherent part of scholarly publishing. We do not sell personal data or use it for marketing.

Your rights. You may review, correct or request deletion of your personal data by contacting the editorial office, subject to the need to preserve the integrity of the published scholarly record.
