License

You retain the copyright for your work. All articles in JHEALI are licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International (CC-BY-NC-ND) License.

Author Confirmations

We do not restrict your distribution or use of the manuscript following publication in JHEALI. In fact, we encourage it with our built-in social media share buttons. However, we have the right to publish the manuscript first on our journal website. Thus, the foregoing licenses are exclusive to us prior to our publication of the manuscript. You have the right to convey the foregoing licenses.

  1. The Author retains copyright in the Work, where the term “Work” shall include all digital objects that may result in subsequent electronic publication or distribution.
  2. If the work has been previously published or pending public dissemination of the manuscript, the Author must inform JHEALI prior to publication. This includes without limitation any publications or acceptances by other journals or disseminations via websites or conference proceedings.
  3. Unless otherwise noted, works published in JHEALI are distributed under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 (CC BY-SA 4.0) International License.

    1. The work is original to the Author.
    2. The work is not pending review or under consideration by another publisher.
    3. If the work has been previously published in any form, the Author has informed the Editors.
    4. The work contains no libel or other unlawful matter.
    5. Any images, photos, tables, or charts are either free from copyright or the Author has obtained written permission from the original copyright holder so as not to infringe any third-party copyright, publicity/privacy right or other proprietary right.
  5. The Author agrees to hold the Editors and Publishers harmless from any breach on the part of the Author of the above qualifications. The Author shall defend and indemnify JHEALI against all claims based on any alleged breach of your confirmations in this contract.

Compensation: You have free, open access to unlimited copies (PDF) of any article published online in the JHEALI. You will not receive a royalty or other monetary return from the JHEALI for using the article.
