Copyright & Licensing

1. Author Copyright & First Publication Rights

Authors retain copyright in their published articles and grant Jurnal Ilmiah Sains (JIS) the non-exclusive right of first publication. Published articles are distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution–NonCommercial 4.0 International (CC BY-NC 4.0) License.

This license permits users to copy, share, distribute, reproduce, and adapt the published work for non-commercial purposes, provided that appropriate credit is given to the original author(s), a link to the license is provided, and any changes made are indicated. Reuse of third-party materials is subject to their respective copyright and licensing terms, where separately indicated.

2. Secondary Distribution Arrangements

Authors may enter into separate, additional non-exclusive arrangements for distributing the published version of their articles, including depositing the articles in institutional repositories or incorporating them into books, provided that the original publication in JIS is properly acknowledged and applicable third-party rights are respected.

Such arrangements shall not revoke or restrict the rights already granted to the public under the CC BY-NC 4.0 License. Commercial reuse by third parties requires separate permission from the relevant copyright holder(s), unless otherwise permitted by applicable law.

3. Self-Archiving & Scholarly Exchange

Authors are permitted and encouraged to share and self-archive their manuscripts through institutional repositories, preprint servers, academic networks, and personal websites before, during, and after publication, subject to applicable copyright and third-party rights.

Authors may deposit the published version of their articles, provided that the original publication in JIS is properly acknowledged and the applicable license is clearly indicated.

This policy aims to promote scholarly communication, increase research visibility, facilitate access to scientific knowledge, and support the wider dissemination of research findings.
