Privacy Statement

Policy · Effective: June 2026

This statement explains what personal information EBJET collects through its website and submission system, how we use it, and the choices you have. We use your information only for the purposes of the journal.

Scope

This statement covers the EBJET website and the submission system—managed on Open Journal Systems (OJS)—and the accounts and submissions handled through it. It applies to authors, reviewers, editors, and readers who provide information to the journal.

Information we collect

  • Account details. The name, email address, affiliation, and role you provide when you register.
  • Submission content. The manuscripts, metadata, and correspondence you upload or send as part of the editorial process.
  • Technical data. Basic server log information (such as IP address and browser type) used to keep the site secure and working.

How we use it

The names and email addresses entered on this journal site are used exclusively for the stated purposes of the journal—managing your account, running peer review, publishing accepted work, and communicating with you about your submissions. We do not sell your information, and we do not use it for advertising or share it for marketing.

When we share information

  • Editorial process. Submission details are shared with the editors and reviewers handling your manuscript, consistent with double-blind review.
  • Service providers. Trusted providers that host the site and register DOIs process data on our behalf, only as needed to deliver the service.
  • Published articles. Author names, affiliations, and article metadata become part of the public scholarly record on publication.
  • Legal requirements. We may disclose information where required by law.

Cookies

The site uses essential cookies needed to sign you in and keep your session secure. These are not used to track you across other websites.

Data retention

We keep account and submission information for as long as your account is active and as long as needed to maintain the integrity of the scholarly and editorial record. You may ask us to close your account and remove personal information that we are not required to retain.

Your rights

You may ask to access, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you. To make a request, contact us at editor@ebjet.eleventhbit.com. Published article metadata generally cannot be removed, as it forms part of the permanent record.

Security & changes

We take reasonable measures to protect your information, though no online service can guarantee absolute security. We may update this statement from time to time; the effective date above shows when it last changed.

  • Publication Ethics: the AI-disclosure stance, similarity threshold, and whether suspected misconduct is reported to institutions are policy choices—adjust the wording to match how EBJET intends to operate.
  • Peer Review: the stated durations and the "two reviewers per paper" figure are sensible defaults—adjust them to match how EBJET actually operates before publishing.

Privacy: confirm the data controller's legal name and contact, hosting and DOI providers, whether any analytics or non-essential cookies are used, and retention periods. Privacy wording can carry legal obligations (e.g., GDPR)—consider a quick legal review before publishing.
