Editorial screening, data and reproducibility

All submissions undergo mandatory editorial Milliy Antiplag screening and manual interpretation before scientific review. Similarity percentages do not determine acceptance automatically. Include a data-availability statement identifying an accessible dataset, a justified restriction, or that no new dataset was generated; do not promise data access that cannot be provided. Describe the methods, software, equations, units and statistical procedures sufficiently for evaluation. Label simulations and synthetic data and distinguish them from observations.

1. Purpose and categories

OJS processes account and contact details, author and affiliation metadata, manuscripts, editorial correspondence and review records for submission, assessment, publication and journal administration. Published author details and article metadata are part of the scholarly record; private account details and unpublished review material are not automatically public.

2. Necessary processing and disclosure

Authorised editors, reviewers and technical service providers receive only information needed for their roles. Mandatory screening involves Milliy Antiplag; publication may involve metadata dissemination and DOI registration services where actually used. Authors must not include unnecessary participant identifiers or confidential third-party data. Unpublished content must not be reused for unrelated public AI processing or open corpus creation without an appropriate basis and author information.

3. Retention, requests and communication

No unverified fixed retention period is promised here. Editorial records and published metadata have different preservation purposes. Contact the editorial office to ask about stored personal information, correction, access or appropriate removal; a request must be considered alongside the integrity of the published record and applicable obligations. Do not send passwords or sensitive participant data by ordinary contact forms.
