Self-archiving policies
Through Open Journal Systems (OJS), Pactum guarantees its contributors the proper safeguarding and archiving of their work through the following stages:
- The preprint (manuscript submitted prior to peer review), at any time, including before or during the editorial process, provided it is explicitly identified as an un-refereed and non-definitive version.
- The postprint or accepted manuscript (final version corrected after peer review, without editorial layout), from the moment of formal acceptance of the article.
- The published version (PDF with the definitive editorial format and assigned DOI), immediately upon online publication.
Authors are permitted to share, cite, and deposit their articles in other networks, repositories, or databases, provided that due credit is given to the journal Pactum and open access policies are not infringed.
