Complaints and appeals

The ombudsperson shall be the first point of contact and is responsible for investigating the issue, mediating between parties and taking a final decision on the issue. In this process the ombudsperson may consult the expertise of other members of the editorial board, the scientific advisory board, the "Special topic" editors, or any other person the ombudsperson deems appropriate in order to resolve the conflict. The ombudsperson shall not be obliged to follow instructions. If the ombudsperson is accused of a conflict of interest, the editorial board shall appoint a substitute.
The editorial board, or the Editor in Chief , shall also handle conflicts of interest of authors, reviewers, the editorial team, "Special topic" editors, journal and publishing house, whether identified during the editorial process or after publication. The same process as described above will apply.
