To contact us about privacy or your personal data, email [email protected].
2. What personal data we collect
We may collect personal data you provide to us directly, such as your name, email address, affiliation, and the content of any correspondence, when you contact us, enquire about our activities, or take part in our publishing and related activities. Where you interact with our journal, personal data is processed under the journal’s own privacy statement.
3. Why we process it, and our lawful basis
We process personal data to respond to enquiries, manage our publishing and business activities, meet our legal and regulatory obligations, and communicate with contacts, authors, reviewers, and partners. Our lawful bases are our legitimate interests in operating the business, the performance of a contract or steps taken at your request, compliance with legal obligations, and, where applicable, your consent.
4. How we store and protect it
We hold personal data securely and apply appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect it. Where we use third-party service providers (for example, hosting or email providers), they act as our data processors and are required to protect personal data appropriately.
5. Who we share it with
We do not sell personal data. We share it only where necessary to operate our activities (for example, with service providers acting on our behalf) or where required by law.
6. International transfers
As we operate internationally, personal data may be processed outside the United Kingdom. Where this occurs, we take steps to ensure it is protected in accordance with applicable data protection law.
7. How long we keep it
We keep personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, or to meet legal and regulatory requirements, after which it is securely deleted.
8. Your rights
Under applicable data protection law — the UK GDPR and Data Protection Act 2018, and, for individuals in the European Union, the EU GDPR — you have the right to access your personal data, request correction or erasure, restrict or object to processing, and, where applicable, data portability. To exercise any of these rights, contact us at [email protected].
9. Complaints
If you have a concern about how we handle your personal data, please contact us first at [email protected]. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the UK Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk, or, if you are located in the European Union, with your local data protection supervisory authority.
