Information that may be collected
Journal applications may contain journal identifiers, institutional details and applicant contact information. Contact enquiries contain the information the sender provides.
Reasons for processing
Information may be used to process applications, assess journal information, manage correspondence, protect the service and maintain authorised publication records.
Public and private records
Approved journal metadata and eligible evaluation outcomes may appear on public profiles. Private applicant correspondence, OTPs, payment details and internal evidence are not public records.
Security and service providers
Private application and contact data must use restricted storage and access controls. Hosting and email services may process information necessary to operate the platform; specific provider arrangements require confirmation.
Retention and user requests
Retention periods and the process for access, correction or deletion requests must be approved and documented according to applicable requirements. Contact evaluation@siifi.org for privacy enquiries.
