COPYRIGHT POLICY

Authors keep copyright. Always.

Datarsoft Publishing House publishes under CC BY 4.0. Authors retain copyright; we receive only a non-exclusive license to publish, distribute, and archive.

Unlike traditional subscription publishers who transfer copyright to themselves, Datarsoft leaves copyright with the author. We get the right to publish; the author retains all the rest.

Author Copyright Retention

Under the Datarsoft Publishing House author agreement, authors retain copyright of their work. The standard license is CC BY 4.0 (see Open Access page).

Author Warranties

By submitting a manuscript, the corresponding author warrants on behalf of all listed authors:

  • The work is original and has not been published elsewhere.
  • All authors have agreed to the submission.
  • The work does not infringe any third-party copyright, trademark, or other proprietary right.
  • Where third-party material is included (figures, tables, extended quotations), permission has been obtained and is documented.
  • All sources are properly cited.
  • Disclosure of conflicts of interest, funding, and AI use is complete.

Third-Party Materials

If your manuscript includes:

  • A figure or table from another publication — you must obtain reuse permission from the rights holder.
  • Extended quotations beyond fair use — you must obtain permission.
  • Photographs of identifiable people — you must have informed consent for publication.
  • Patient data or case details — you must have ethics committee approval and patient consent.

Documentation of permissions must be uploaded with the manuscript.

Datarsoft's Rights

Datarsoft Publishing House receives a non-exclusive license to:

  • Publish the article in our journal.
  • Distribute the article through indexing, abstracting, and archival services.
  • Reproduce the article in derivative formats (PDF, XML, HTML, EPUB).
  • Translate the article into other languages.
  • License the article under CC BY 4.0 for users worldwide.
  • Deposit the article in CLOCKSS, Portico, and other preservation networks.

These rights are non-exclusive — authors retain the same rights and can grant them to others.

Indian Copyright Act 1957

Datarsoft Publishing House operates under Indian law, including the Indian Copyright Act 1957 (as amended). The CC BY 4.0 license is fully compatible with Indian copyright law. Disputes are subject to the jurisdiction of courts in Ahmedabad, Gujarat.
