1. Copyright Ownership

Authors retain copyright in articles published by JPPMI. Copyright ownership is not transferred exclusively to the journal or its publisher.

Upon acceptance and publication, authors grant JPPMI the right of first publication and a non-exclusive right to publish, reproduce, distribute, display, archive, preserve, index, and disseminate the article and its metadata in electronic or other appropriate formats.

These rights allow the journal to maintain and disseminate the scholarly record without acquiring exclusive ownership of the authors' copyright.

2. Creative Commons License

Unless otherwise specified on an individual article, JPPMI publications are distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International License (CC BY-NC-SA 4.0).

CC BY-NC-SA 4.0

Attribution • NonCommercial • ShareAlike

Read the Official License Terms →

The license allows users to share, redistribute, adapt, remix, and build upon the licensed material for non-commercial purposes, provided that all applicable license conditions are satisfied.

3. Conditions of Reuse

Attribution (BY)

Users must provide appropriate credit to the original authors, identify the publication and source, link to the applicable license, and indicate whether changes were made. The article DOI or permanent URL should be included.

NonCommercial (NC)

Reuse under this license is limited to purposes not primarily intended for commercial advantage or monetary compensation. Commercial reuse outside the license conditions requires separate authorization from the appropriate rights holder.

ShareAlike (SA)

Adaptations must be distributed under the same Creative Commons license or an officially compatible license as permitted by the applicable terms.

Indication of Changes

Translations, modifications, adaptations, and other alterations must be identified appropriately and must not misrepresent the original article.

No Implied Endorsement

Reuse must not suggest that the original authors, JPPMI, its publisher, or participating communities endorse the reuser or an adapted version of the work.

No Additional Restrictions

Reusers must not impose additional legal terms or technological measures that restrict others from exercising rights granted under the license.

4. Author Rights

Authors retain the right to use and distribute their work in accordance with their copyright ownership, applicable publication agreements, and relevant third-party rights.

  • Reuse article content in subsequent scholarly or educational works.
  • Use published material for teaching, training, and academic presentations.
  • Share published articles with colleagues, students, and community partners.
  • Deposit permitted manuscript versions in institutional or subject repositories.
  • Include published material in theses, dissertations, or collected scholarly works, with appropriate citation.
  • Disseminate their publications through lawful channels consistent with applicable agreements and licenses.

5. Author Responsibilities

Authors are responsible for ensuring that the material submitted for publication does not violate copyright, privacy, consent, or other applicable rights.

  1. The manuscript must be original and must not unlawfully reproduce protected content.
  2. All authors must have the authority to grant the required publication rights.
  3. Quotations, figures, tables, images, and other reused materials must be attributed accurately.
  4. Third-party materials must be used with appropriate authorization or a valid legal basis.
  5. Community partner materials and documentation must be used with appropriate permission.
  6. Identifiable participant photographs, recordings, and personal information must have appropriate publication consent.
  7. Relevant copyright or permission restrictions must be disclosed to the editorial office.

6. Third-Party Material and Community Documentation

Community engagement articles may contain photographs, educational materials, survey instruments, diagrams, illustrations, trademarks, or documentation provided by community partners and other third parties.

The article's Creative Commons license applies only to material that the authors or journal have the legal authority to license. Material subject to separate rights should be identified appropriately, and any necessary permission must be obtained.

Community Participant Protection: Consent to publish identifiable photographs, recordings, quotations, or personal information must be respected independently of the copyright license applied to the article. Open access does not eliminate privacy and confidentiality obligations.

7. Commercial Use and Additional Permissions

CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 does not authorize commercial reuse outside the conditions of the license.

Individuals or organizations intending to reproduce, distribute, adapt, or otherwise use licensed content primarily for commercial purposes must obtain separate authorization from the appropriate copyright holder, unless a separate legal permission or exception applies.

Permission from JPPMI alone does not authorize reuse of copyright owned by authors or third parties unless the journal has been specifically authorized to grant such permission.

8. Citation and Attribution of Published Articles

Users should provide a complete and accurate scholarly citation when referring to, redistributing, or adapting a published JPPMI article.

A complete citation should normally include:

  • Author names.
  • Year of publication.
  • Article title.
  • Journal title.
  • Volume and issue.
  • Page range or article identifier, if applicable.
  • Digital Object Identifier (DOI) or permanent publication URL.

When the work is adapted, users must also identify the applicable license and indicate relevant modifications. Proper citation does not replace any separate permission required for uses outside the license.

9. Version of Record and Licensing Consistency

The applicable copyright and license information should be stated consistently on the article landing page, published PDF, and relevant publication metadata.

The license applied when an article is published governs that version of record according to its terms.

JPPMI does not silently change the license attached to an already published article. Any substantive licensing correction must be documented transparently and made with the appropriate authorization.

10. Earlier Publications

For articles published before the adoption or revision of this policy, the applicable copyright and reuse conditions are those established by the original publication agreement and license displayed on the relevant published article.

This policy does not automatically replace a different license or copyright arrangement that was validly applied to an earlier publication.

11. Official License Information

The complete permissions, conditions, limitations, and legal terms of the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International License are available from Creative Commons.
