Privacy Policy

Website analytics

If you choose “Accept analytics”, Google Analytics 4 measures visits to the public journal website and downloads of published PDFs. It uses cookies and browser information to measure readership. Advertising personalization and Google signals are disabled.

Optional analytics does not load before your consent. Login, registration, contact forms, account dashboards, manuscript submissions, search results and signed-in visits are excluded. Form contents, account identifiers and arbitrary URL query parameters are not sent by this integration.

Your choice is stored in this browser for six months. Select “Analytics preferences” on a public page to change it. Choosing “Necessary only” removes the journal’s analytics cookies and stops optional tracking. Browser settings and blocking tools may also prevent collection.

Google processes analytics data as a service provider. Read how Google uses information from sites that use its services. For journal privacy enquiries, contact the editorial office.
