• Contact and newsletter forms: your name, email address, profession, institution and message.
• Publishing services: the information you provide when you submit a manuscript, review or use author services, including details of co-authors.
• Technical data: our hosting provider records standard server logs, such as IP address, browser type and pages requested, to keep the site secure.

How we use it

• To manage submissions, peer review and publication.
• To send our newsletter, if you subscribe. Every issue includes a link to unsubscribe.
• To keep the website secure and working.

Legal basis

Under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), we process data on the basis of your consent (newsletter, contact forms), the performance of a contract (publishing and author services), our legal obligations, and our legitimate interest in running a secure website.

Who we share it with

We do not sell personal data. We share it only with service providers that help us run our services, such as hosting, email and the journal platform, under agreements that protect your data, and with reviewers and editors as part of the peer-review process.

International transfers

Our teams work in Spain and the United Arab Emirates. When data is transferred outside the European Economic Area, we use appropriate safeguards such as the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses.

How long we keep it

We keep enquiry data for as long as needed to answer you and for a reasonable period afterwards. Newsletter data is kept until you unsubscribe. Publishing records are kept for as long as needed to maintain the scholarly record and meet legal obligations.

Your rights

You can ask to access, correct or delete your data, to restrict or object to its processing, and to receive it in a portable format. You can withdraw consent at any time. Email office@aiam.es. If you are not satisfied with our answer, you can complain to the Spanish Data Protection Agency (Agencia Española de Protección de Datos, aepd.es).

Cookies and third-party services

This website does not use advertising or tracking cookies, and its fonts are hosted on our own server, so browsing the site does not send your data to third parties. If we add analytics in the future, we will update this policy and ask for your consent where required.

Security

The site is served over an encrypted connection (HTTPS), and we limit access to personal data to the people who need it to do their work.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy. The date at the top shows when it last changed.
