Privacy Statement

This Privacy Statement describes how Noemica Journal handles the personal data of authors, reviewers, readers, and other users, in accordance with Brazil's General Data Protection Law (Lei nº 13.709/2018 — LGPD).

Data collected

We collect name, email address, institutional affiliation, country, ORCID (when provided), and other data submitted during registration, manuscript submission, or peer review. Technical access data (IP address, date and time) is also logged for security purposes and platform usage statistics.

Purpose of processing

Data is used exclusively for the purposes of this publication: managing the editorial workflow, communicating with authors and reviewers, generating usage statistics, and complying with legal and editorial obligations. Data is not shared with third parties or used for any other purpose.

Legal basis

Processing is based on the performance of the editorial process requested by the user (registered author, reviewer, or reader) and on compliance with legal obligations applicable to scholarly publications.

Retention

Data is retained for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described above and to preserve the scientific record. Data linked to a published article (authorship, affiliation, ORCID) may be retained indefinitely as part of that record.

Cookies and technical logs

The platform uses essential session cookies for authentication and audience-analysis cookies (Google Analytics) for aggregated usage statistics. These are not used to individually identify users for marketing purposes.

Sharing

Data may be shared with technical infrastructure providers (hosting, backup) strictly to operate the journal, under the same confidentiality principles described in this statement.

Data subject rights

Under the LGPD, data subjects may request confirmation of processing, access, correction, anonymization, or deletion of their data, to the extent compatible with preservation of the scientific record. Requests can be sent to editor@noemicajournal.org.
