Publisher responsibilities

• The editor is responsible for everything published in the journal, striving to meet the needs of readers and authors; for constantly improving the magazine; for ensuring the quality of the material he publishes; for promoting academic and scientific standards. Furthermore, the editor will publish corrections, clarifications, retractions and apologies when necessary.
• The editor's decision to accept or reject a text for publication will be based solely on the importance of the article, originality, clarity and relevance that it represents for the journal.
• The editor undertakes to guarantee the confidentiality of the evaluation process, and may not reveal the identity of the authors to the reviewers. He also may not reveal the identity of the reviewers at any time.
• The editor assumes the responsibility of duly informing the author of the phase of the editorial process in which the submitted text is, as well as of the resolutions of the opinion.
• The editor evaluates manuscripts and their intellectual content without regard to the authors' race, gender, sexual orientation, religious beliefs, ethnic origin, nationality, or political philosophy.
  Neither the editor nor any member of the editorial team may disclose information about a submitted manuscript to anyone other than the corresponding author, reviewers, potential reviewers, or other editorial advisors.
• Any unpublished material disclosed in a received manuscript will not be used in personal research by the publisher, without the express written consent of the author. Privileged information or ideas obtained through peer review will remain confidential and will not be used for personal gain. Publishers must make fair and unbiased decisions and ensure a fair and appropriate peer review process.

Authors' responsibilities

• Authors must guarantee that their manuscripts are the product of their original work and that the data has been obtained ethically. In addition, they must guarantee that their works have not been previously published or that they are not being considered in another publication. A work will be considered as previously published when any of the following situations occurs:

1. When the full text has been published.
2. When extensive fragments of previously published materials are part of the text sent to the journal and there are no substantial changes in its contributions.
3. When the work submitted to the journal is contained in reports published in extenso.
4. These criteria refer to previous publications in print or electronic form, and in any language.

• For the publication of their works, authors must strictly follow the guidelines for authors defined on the website.
• Authors will submit the article to the journal in accordance with the aforementioned guidelines for authors.
• The authors of the articles must present a precise description of the research carried out, as well as an objective discussion of its importance. The underlying data must be accurately represented in the article. A document must contain enough detail and references to allow others to use the work. Fraudulent or deliberately inaccurate claims constitute unethical behavior and are unacceptable.
  The authors must guarantee that they have written the original works in their entirety, and if the authors have used the work and/or words of another(s), they must be duly cited. Plagiarism in all its forms constitutes editorial unethical conduct and is unacceptable. Consequently, any manuscript found to be plagiarized will be removed and not considered for publication.

• Sources must be adequately acknowledged. Authors should cite publications that have been influential in the nature of the work presented.
• Authorship should be limited to those who have made a significant contribution to the conception, design, execution, or interpretation of the study. All those who have made significant contributions should be listed as co-authors. The lead author(s) should ensure that all co-authors are included in the article, and that all have seen and approved the final version of the paper and have agreed to its submission for publication early in the process.
• All authors must disclose in their manuscript any financial or other conflicts that could influence the results or interpretation of their manuscript. All sources of financial support for the project must be disclosed.
• When an author discovers a significant error or inaccuracy in his published work, it is his obligation to immediately notify the responsible editor of the journal and to cooperate in retracting or correcting the article.

Reviewer responsibilities

• The reviewers undertake to notify any unethical conduct by the authors and point out all the information that may be a reason to reject the publication of the articles. In addition, they must agree to keep confidential the information related to the manuscripts they evaluate.
• For the review of the works, the reviewers must have the guidelines to carry out this task. These guidelines must be provided by the journal and are the ones that must be considered for the evaluation.
• All selected reviewers must notify those responsible for the journal within the established time if they are qualified to carry out the review of the work or if they are not able to do so.
