Privacy Statement

The names and email addresses entered in this portal will be used exclusively for the stated purposes of each journal and will not be made available for any other purpose or to any other party.

Personal data are processed on the lawful basis of the legitimate interest in operating a scholarly publication and, where applicable, on consent. Data subjects may request access to, correction of, or erasure of their personal data through the contact listed on this portal.

Erasure is honoured except where the data form part of the permanent scholarly record of a published article — authorship and affiliation of published work cannot be withdrawn without a formal correction or retraction.

Reviewer identities are held in confidence indefinitely. Each journal may keep a supplementary privacy statement, which prevails where it is more specific.
