The journal maintains full transparency in its revenue model and advertising practices. All policies are designed to protect editorial independence and uphold the highest standards of academic publishing.
The journal operates under a transparent and sustainable revenue model that protects editorial independence at every stage of the publishing process.
Revenue is primarily generated through Article Processing Charges (APCs), which are payable only after manuscript acceptance and cover publication and processing costs. The journal may additionally receive limited income from advertising, grants, sponsorships, or donations — provided these align with the academic mission and do not compromise editorial integrity.
All editorial decisions are made solely on the basis of academic quality, originality, and scientific merit — independent of any revenue source, advertiser relationship, or sponsorship arrangement.
The journal permits only relevant and appropriate advertisements tied to academic or scholarly activities.
Advertising decisions are made independently by the editorial board or a designated committee. These decisions have no influence on editorial decision-making. All placement is evaluated against standards for relevance, accuracy, and scholarly appropriateness.
"Advertising is not linked to specific articles, editorial outcomes, or individual reader behavior. All advertiser relationships are managed entirely separately from the editorial process."
The journal conducts direct marketing activities in an ethical, transparent, and professional manner that respects both recipients and the scholarly community.
All communications are accurate, targeted to relevant academic audiences, and compliant with applicable data protection and privacy regulations. Marketing activities remain completely separate from editorial processes.
