Duties of the editorial office and editorial board

Publication decision

The editor and the editorial board make decisions regarding the publication of works submitted for print. This decision is consistent with the journal's policy and is based on academic values and the conclusions of the reviewers.

The editor evaluates manuscripts independently of prior achievements, race, ethnic origin, gender, religion, citizenship, sexual orientation, or political philosophy of the authors.

Confidentiality

The editor and the editorial board of the journal guarantee that any information about a submitted manuscript and personal data, other than those publicly used in the article, will be used exclusively for the performance of internal editorial tasks and will not be disseminated or transferred to third parties.

Disclosure and conflict of interest

Unpublished materials disclosed in a submitted work must not be used in any research by the editor, members of the editorial board, reviewers, or any other informed party without the prior written consent of the author(s). Exclusive information or arguments obtained through expert review must be kept confidential and must not be used to gain personal advantage. The editor and any member of the editorial board must recuse themselves from reviewing manuscripts in the event of any conflicts of interest arising from collaborative, competitive, or other relationships, or relationships with any of the authors or companies/institutions related to the manuscripts. The Editor-in-Chief has the right to require all parties involved in the process to disclose any conflict of interest before or after the publication of an article, and to make appropriate corrections, amendments, or disclosures.
