Privacy Statement

Here is the official and technical translation into English, aligned with the academic and editorial terminology used by major international journal portals:

PRIVACY AND PERSONAL DATA PROTECTION POLICY

The Journal Portal of Centro Universitário Fasipe is committed to protecting the privacy and security of the personal data of all members of its scientific community (authors, reviewers, editors, and readers), in strict compliance with the Brazilian General Data Protection Law (LGPD - Law No. 13,709/2018).

1. Data Collection and Purpose

The personal data collected on this portal (such as full name, email address, institutional affiliation, ORCID, biography, and country) are used strictly for academic, editorial, and scientific communication purposes. They are utilized to:

  • Ensure authorship and the integrity of the peer review process (Double-Blind Peer Review);

  • Manage the stages of the editorial workflow for submissions;

  • Inform readers and users about new publications and calls for papers;

  • Feed the metadata required for indexing and system interoperability in national and international databases.

2. Sharing and Indexing

The contact and public identification data (name, affiliation, and ORCID) of authors of approved and published articles will be integrated into the article's metadata. This means they will be publicly shared on the portal and distributed to indexers, digital repositories, and Open Access scientific content aggregators. Under no circumstances will this data be commercialized or used for third-party advertising purposes.

3. Storage and Security

The Fasipe Journal Portal adopts appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect data stored within the Open Journal Systems (OJS) platform against unauthorized access, loss, or alteration.

4. Rights of the Data Subject (Consent and Revocation)

By registering, submitting a manuscript, or acting as a reviewer, users express their free and informed consent to the terms of this policy. In accordance with the LGPD, users have the right to, at any time, access, correct, update, or request the deletion of their personal data from the user registry by contacting the editorial team, provided that such deletion does not compromise the integrity of the historical record of articles already published and indexed.
