Copyright & Licensing Policy

Global Insight Journal is committed to protecting the intellectual property rights of authors while ensuring that published research remains accessible, usable, and properly attributed within the academic community. This policy explains the ownership of copyright, the rights granted to the journal, and the licence under which published articles may be accessed and reused.

By submitting a manuscript, authors confirm that the work is original, has not been published previously in another journal or publication, and does not infringe the copyright, privacy, or intellectual property rights of any individual, institution, or third party.

Copyright Retention & Open Access License

Copyright in articles remains entirely with the author or authors. Authors retain the absolute right to use, share, reproduce, distribute, and archive their published work, provided that the original publication in Global Insight Journal is properly acknowledged.

Articles are universally distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Licence (CC BY 4.0). This framework permits users to copy, distribute, display, adapt, translate, remix, and build upon the published work for any lawful purpose, including commercial use, provided that appropriate credit is given to the original authors and to Global Insight Journal. Reuse must include a clear citation and must not misrepresent findings or imply endorsement.

Author-Journal Publishing Agreement

Upon acceptance, authors grant Global Insight Journal specific non-exclusive permissions to institutionalize the text:

• Granting the journal non-exclusive rights to publish, reproduce, distribute, and archive the work.
• Dissemination across print, electronic, online database indexing, and global repository formats.
• Authorized deployment of abstracts, metadata strings, and figures to optimize search discoverability.
• Permanent curation of version-of-record documentation to safeguard the scholarly record.
Rights Allocation Matrix

The operational balance of permissions under the open-access model governs stakeholders as follows:

• Retained Author Rights
  • Share full text through repositories, academic profiles, or personal web pages.
  • Deposit accepted manuscripts immediately post-launch without an embargo lock.
  • Reuse article fractions, figures, or tables in subsequent texts, thesis structures, or lectures.
• Permitted Reader Rights
  • Read, access, download, print, and link back directly to article URLs without charge.
  • Copy, distribute, display, adapt, or build upon text matrices with attribution.
  • Document modifications clearly and respect third-party standalone copyrighted imagery.
Third-Party Asset Clearance

Authors preserve exclusive responsibility for securing formal copyright permissions and writing declarations for embedded third-party items—such as photographs, maps, custom data charts, survey questionnaires, or lengthy quotes. Content components not matching the open license scope must be isolated within captions, requiring downstream users to clear use directly with the copyright holders.

Legal Author Warranties

By logging material into the submission gateway, authors confirm the text represents original work with all contributors credited. Authors explicitly certify that files contain no defamatory, unlawful, confidential, or infringing material. The corresponding author affirms that all co-authors have evaluated and approved the final proof version before publication.

Copyright Infringement & Complaint Processing

Global Insight Journal addresses copyright infringement reports systematically. Any entity that believes data has been deployed inside the platform without valid clearance keys can contact the Editorial Office with supporting evidence. If confirmed, the journal executes immediate corrective actions based on the breach lifecycle, including issuing erratum notes, removing disputed elements, or deploying complete article retractions.

Policy Periodicity & Review Update Clause

This official Copyright & Licensing Policy is subjected to rolling review cycles to maintain prospective alignment with changing international publishing frameworks, digital indexing rules, open science guidelines, and regional property legislation. Authors and users are encouraged to verify the latest active status text page before participating in the journal's publication pipeline.
