Statement of Journal Independence and Integrity

Reog: Journal of Ecoethnoscience Education confirms that all editorial and publication processes are conducted independently, professionally, and with integrity. Reog does not collaborate with third parties that offer or facilitate manuscript writing, guaranteed publication, editorial manipulation, or other services that may compromise scholarly publishing standards. This does not preclude legitimate partnerships with professional associations, universities, seminar committees, or other scholarly institutions intended to support academic outreach, journal development, and the quality and quantity of manuscript submissions.

Reog does not work with consultants, agents, brokers, or service providers offering publication services, including those that promise “fast publication”, expedited or “1-day” Letters of Acceptance (LoA), simplified or bypassed editorial processes, guaranteed acceptance, or manuscript writing services. All manuscripts must be submitted directly by the Authors through the official Open Journal Systems (OJS), and manuscript-related communication must be conducted through the journal's official OJS, email, or other official contact information published on the Reog website.

Reog does not sell or offer article publication services through e-commerce platforms, social media, or unauthorized intermediaries. The journal is not responsible for any promotion, guarantee, representation, or publication offer made by unauthorized parties claiming to represent Reog.

If an Author is found to have used a third-party service in a manner that violates academic, research, or publication ethics, including unauthorized manuscript writing, submission manipulation, or other unethical publication assistance, the matter may be investigated and appropriate editorial action may be taken in accordance with the journal's Publication Ethics and Malpractice Statement and, where applicable, the Research Misconduct and Post-Publication Policy. Such action may include rejection of a manuscript under consideration or appropriate post-publication action where the article has already been published.

As part of its commitment to honest, transparent, and accountable scholarly publishing, Reog is guided by applicable principles and guidance of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) and consistently seeks to uphold appropriate standards of scholarly quality, publication ethics, and academic integrity throughout the publication process.

The Publisher has no authority to interfere with editorial decisions. Editorial decisions remain the responsibility of the Editorial Team and must be based on scholarly quality, Peer Reviewer assessments, editorial evaluation, ethical considerations, and applicable Reog policies.

Authors, researchers, Reviewers, and readers are encouraged to obtain information about Reog only through the journal's official website and official communication channels. Any suspected misuse, fraud, impersonation, unauthorized publication offer, or misrepresentation involving the name of Reog should be reported to the journal through its official contact information.
