Privacy Statement

Privacy is an important concern for users of our site, and is something that PAGEPress takes very seriously. Below you will find our policy for protecting users' personal information. Registration on our website is optional and voluntary. Browsing and viewing articles on our website does not require any personal information to be submitted from users. Nor do these functions require the user's browser to be set to accept cookies. Some other aspects of our services published on our website do require the use of cookies, and the supply of information such as name, e-mail etc. This is necessary for security reasons and also for us to be able to assure standards of scientific integrity. Users may submit further personal information (e.g. details of research areas of interest) in order to take advantage of present and future personalization facilities on our website. In accordance with European Union guidelines, registrants may decline to provide the information requested. They should be advised, however, that PAGEPress may be unable to deliver its services unless at least the information necessary for security and identification purposes is provided. In order to offer the best possible service to users, PAGE Press tracks the patterns of usage of pages on the site. This enables us to identify the most popular articles and services. Where users have provided details of their research areas of interest, this information can be correlated, helping PAGEPress to provide a useful service for scientists, offering them the most relevant information based on their areas of interest. User information will only be shared with third parties with the explicit consent of the user. Publishing a scientific manuscript is inherently a public (as opposed to anonymous) process. The name and e-mail address of all authors of a PAGEPress manuscript will be available to users of PAGEPress. These details are made available in this way purely to facilitate scientific communication. Collecting these e-mail addresses for commercial use is not allowed, nor will PAGEPress itself send unsolicited e-mail to authors, unless it directly concerns the paper they have published on PAGEPress journals. PAGEPress reserves the right to disclose members' personal information if required to do so by law, or in the good faith and belief that such action is reasonably necessary to comply with legal process, respond to claims, or protect the rights, property or safety of PAGEPress, employees or members.
