Data Sharing
Personal data is not shared externally, except for the names, affiliations and email addresses of authors appearing in published articles. This information is displayed as part of the article and is shared externally in the approved indexes and databases that index the journal (such as ASJP, the Arab Impact Factor, and Arcif).
We do not collect any personal information that could be used to identify you when you browse the website in general.
Account Registration
When you register an account via the Algerian Scientific Journal Platform (ASJP), we ask you to log in and provide some personal information, such as your name and email address. You may also register using your academic identifier (ORCiD), which pre-fills the registration form.
Cookies
We use cookies to make the website easier to use, for example so that your account remains open when you return to the journal. You may block or delete them and you will still be able to use the website, but you will then need to enter your username and password each time you log in.
To benefit from certain features of the website, you may also provide us with other personal information, such as your ORCiD identifier, and your decision to use these features and provide this data will always remain voluntary.
Published Data
In compliance with academic publishing ethics and the standards of international committees such as COPE, no personal data that has already been published within an approved research article can be removed, whether it has been assigned a Digital Object Identifier (DOI) or officially published on the platform.
