5. Published Information
When an article is published, information including the article title, author names, affiliations, abstract, keywords, email address where applicable, citation details, DOI, and article content may become publicly available.
Published scholarly records may also be archived, indexed, copied, cited, or displayed by third-party academic services.

- Enable essential website functions
- Remember user preferences
- Maintain security
- Understand website usage
- Improve performance and user experience
You may restrict cookies through your browser settings. Disabling essential cookies may affect certain website functions.
7. Data Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organisational safeguards to protect personal information against unauthorised access, misuse, alteration, disclosure, or loss.
However, no internet transmission or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Users should not send passwords, UPI PINs, CVV numbers, OTPs, or other confidential banking credentials through email, contact forms, or manuscript files.
8. Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to:
- Provide publication and related services
- Maintain academic and transaction records
- Process refunds or resolve disputes
- Protect against fraud and misuse
- Meet accounting, tax, contractual, and legal obligations
Published article records, DOI metadata, editorial records, and information required to preserve the scholarly record may be retained for a longer period.

Global Publications is not responsible for the privacy practices or content of independent third-party websites. Users should review the privacy policy of the relevant third party before providing personal information.
