Copyright & Conflict of Interest
Copyright gives the holder sole rights over how others use their work. As an author, this means that which copyright option you choose defines how researchers, scientists, policy makers, or anyone else who has an interest in your research can use your work.
Copyright has a time limit (usually life of the author plus 40-70 years for a journal article) and the level and type of protection offered varies between countries. Local and international laws and conventions mean that the copyright is recognized and protected, to varying degrees, in almost every country in the world.
Copyright at GATR Enterprise
When publishing in GATR Journals, we ask you to assign copyright to GATR. When you assign copyright to GATR, as part of the publication process, you will be asked to sign a copyright agreement. This will be done once, your manuscript has been gone through the peer-review process, accepted, and moves into production.
When publishing in GATR Journals, we ask you to take consent of all authors. Mentioning that you, author(s) agree that article will not be published elsewhere, in whole or in part without the consent of the GATR Journals. The undersigned authors hereby transfer/assign or otherwise convey all copyright ownership of the manuscript entitled to the GATR Journals.
Conflict of Interest
Public trust in the scientific process and the credibility of published articles depend in part on how transparently conflicts of interest are handled during the planning, implementation, writing, peer review, editing, and publication of scientific work.
A conflict of interest exists when professional judgment concerning a primary interest (such as patients' welfare or the validity of research) may be influenced by a secondary interest (such as financial gain). Perceptions of conflict of interest are as important as actual conflicts of interest.
Financial relationships (such as employment, consultancies, stock ownership or options, honoraria, patents, and paid expert testimony) are the most easily identifiable conflicts of interest and the most likely to undermine the credibility of the journal, the authors, and of science itself. However, conflicts can occur for other reasons, such as personal relationships or rivalries, academic competition, and intellectual beliefs. Authors should avoid entering in to agreements with study sponsors, both for-profit and non-profit, that interfere with authors' access to all of the study's data or that interfere with their ability to analyse and interpret the data and to prepare and publish manuscripts independently when and where they choose.
GATR Journal's Retraction/Correction policy
Minor errors that do not affect the integrity of the metadata or a reader's ability to understand an article and that do not involve a scientific error or omission will be corrected at the discretion of the Publisher. In such a case, the original article is removed and replaced with a corrected version. The date the correction is made is noted on the corrected article.
Authors should also be aware that an original article can only be removed and replaced with a corrected version less than one year after the original publication date. Corrections to an article which has a publication date that is older than one year will only be documented by a Publisher's Note.
