PhD Kro coordinates the journal’s administrative operations, publication management, technical support, and communication with authors, reviewers, editors, and readers.
Ownership and Publishing Imprint
The journal operates under the PhD Kro publishing imprint. PhD Kro serves as the publishing entity responsible for coordinating journal operations, maintaining publication records, managing the publishing platform, and supporting the dissemination of scholarly content. The journal’s ownership and administrative arrangements are intended to ensure transparency, institutional accountability, and continuity of publication. Any changes in ownership, publishing responsibility, or formal institutional partnerships will be disclosed through the journal’s official website.
Editorial Independence
IJET recognizes editorial independence as an essential principle of credible scholarly publishing. Academic and editorial decisions are the responsibility of the formally appointed Editor-in-Chief and authorized academic editors, who evaluate manuscripts according to originality, technical quality, methodological soundness, research integrity, and scholarly relevance. The publisher provides administrative, financial, and technical support without improperly influencing editorial judgments. Publication charges, commercial interests, or personal affiliations must not determine manuscript acceptance or rejection.
Publishing Responsibilities
PhD Kro is responsible for supporting the journal’s publishing operations, including manuscript administration, publication coordination, website maintenance, scholarly communication, and the management of publication-related information. The publishing framework emphasizes transparent editorial procedures, accurate bibliographic information, accessible article records, and clearly communicated publishing policies. Corrections, retractions, and other changes affecting published research are addressed through the journal’s applicable editorial procedures to maintain the integrity and reliability of the scholarly record.
Publication Ethics and Transparency
The journal seeks to maintain transparency in its editorial governance, publication practices, financial arrangements, and communication procedures. Authors, reviewers, and editors are expected to comply with the journal’s applicable ethical standards, including requirements concerning originality, authorship, conflicts of interest, confidentiality, and research integrity. Information regarding ISSN registration, DOI services, digital preservation arrangements, indexing coverage, and institutional affiliations will be displayed only when officially confirmed and applicable to the journal.
Financial and Administrative Accountability
PhD Kro administers the journal’s publication-related financial and operational activities. Information concerning Article Processing Charges (APCs), applicable additional charges, payment procedures, copyright, publishing licences, and refund conditions is communicated through the journal’s respective policy pages. Financial considerations remain separate from academic editorial evaluation, and manuscript acceptance is determined by scholarly merit. The publisher is also responsible for providing appropriate administrative assistance and addressing legitimate publishing-related enquiries.
