Publications ethics

Relationships between authors, editors and reviewers in our journal are based on academic benevolence, objectivity of ratings and priority of scientific quality. We are following the principles of Code of Conduct for Editors as defined by the Committee of Publication Ethics (COPE), in particular.

Publication decisions
The editor is responsible for choosing which of the articles submitted to the journal should be published. The editor should be guided by the policies of the editorial board of the journal and be limited to such legal requirements as the prevention of slander, copyright protection and the prevention of plagiarism. The editor may invite other editors or reviewers to decide on the possibility of publishing the manuscript.

Honest game
The editor always evaluates manuscripts by their intellectual content, regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, religious faith, ethnic origin, citizenship, or political views of the authors.

Confidentiality
The editor and the editorial staff should not disclose any information about the submitted manuscript to anyone other than the corresponding author, reviewers, potential reviewers, other members of the editorial board and publisher.

Disclosure and conflict of interest
Unpublished materials, disclosed in the submitted manuscript, can not be used in the own study of the editor without the written consent of the author.
