Introduction

Global Science Publisher (GSP) respects your privacy. We collect and use personal information only as needed to operate our publishing programmes, respond to enquiries, process submissions and payments where applicable, and improve our digital services. GSP does not sell, rent, or trade email lists to third parties for unrelated marketing.

What we collect

Depending on how you interact with us, we may process:

  • Identity and contact data: name, institutional affiliation, email address, telephone number (if provided), and similar details you supply on forms or in correspondence.
  • Publication-related data: manuscript metadata, co-author information, reviewer correspondence where relevant, and records needed to manage peer review and production.
  • Technical data: IP address, browser type, device type, and pages visited when you use our websites (typically via server logs or similar technologies).
  • Payment-related data: billing information required to process fees you agree to pay (handled in line with the payment channel used).

How we use your information

We use this information to:

  • Provide publishing, editorial, and customer support services;
  • Communicate with authors, reviewers, editors, and readers about submissions and publications;
  • Maintain the security and integrity of our systems;
  • Comply with legal obligations and enforce our agreements.

Sharing and retention

We may share limited information with trusted service providers who assist us (for example, hosting, email delivery, or payment processing) under appropriate confidentiality and security expectations. We retain information for as long as necessary to fulfil these purposes, meet legal requirements, and resolve disputes, unless a longer period is required by law.

Security

We apply reasonable administrative and technical safeguards appropriate to the nature of our operations. No method of transmission over the Internet is completely secure; we encourage you to use institutional email where possible and to protect your account credentials.

Where applicable law grants you rights over your personal data (such as access, correction, or deletion), you may contact us using the details below. We will respond in line with applicable legal requirements. If you believe information we hold is inaccurate, please let us know so we can update our records.
