All methods of data processing, as well as the logic of the interpretation, should be clear and transparent.
In case some information was received privately, i.e. in correspondence, conversation or discussion with third parties, or obtained in the course of providing confidential services, it can be used or communicated only with written permission from the information source.

The editors of the journal accept previously unpublished articles containing an original scientific study or an extensive review on a certain topic that corresponds to the general research direction of the journal for review.

If there is any conflict of interest in any form between the reviewer and the author, the reviewer must immediately notify the editorial staff of the journal and refuse to review.
