Peninsula Publishing L.L.C. (Peninsula Publishing Press), Office 203, 2nd Floor, Abdul Rehman Building, Al Khabisi, Hor Al Anz, Dubai, United Arab Emirates, is responsible for this website and for the journal sites at peninsula-press.ae/Journals.

What this site stores

  • Cookies that make the site work. WordPress and the LiteSpeed cache set cookies needed to keep you logged in, to remember a form, and to serve the site. These are not used for advertising.
  • The cookie notice. If you close the notice, the site stores that choice so it is not shown again on every page.
  • Messages you send us. If you email contact@peninsula-press.ae, support@peninsula-press.ae, appeals@peninsula-press.ae or dispute@peninsula-press.ae, we keep the message, your address and our reply for as long as the matter needs, and then for our records of editorial and business correspondence.

Journal accounts and submissions

Creating an account on a journal site stores the name, email address and role you enter, so that the site can identify you. Manuscripts are submitted through ScholarOne, a service of Clarivate, not through the account form on the journal site. ScholarOne processes the manuscript, the author details and the review correspondence under its own terms. The journal’s editors and the publishing office use that information to run peer review and publication.

A published article shows the authors’ names, affiliations and the statements the authors supplied. That information stays with the article.

Visitor counters on the journal sites

Some journal pages include a FlagCounter widget. It loads from flagcounter.com and can record a visit and a country flag. It is not required to read or submit to a journal. We do not use it to identify you.

What we do not do

These sites do not carry advertising and do not sell personal information. We do not use the sites to build marketing profiles.

Your requests

You may ask what personal data we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it where we are not required to keep it for the scholarly record, a legal duty, or an open editorial case. Write to contact@peninsula-press.ae. We reply within 5 working days to say what we will do, and we complete the request as soon as we can.
