Data processed and purpose

• Authors: name, email, institutional affiliation, country, ORCID and, where provided, CV link. Purpose: identification of authorship, editorial communication, attribution of credit and distribution of metadata to indexing services — where name, affiliation and ORCID become public by the nature of scholarly publishing.

Legal basis

Processing relies on legitimate interest in editorial and scholarly activity (Art. 7, IX, Brazilian General Data Protection Law) and on consent for optional communications (Art. 7, I). Publication of authors' names, affiliations and ORCID iDs follows from the purpose of scholarly dissemination itself.

Cookies

The system uses a session cookie for authentication and language preference. There are no advertising cookies, behavioural tracking or third-party marketing cookies.

Sharing

Metadata of published works — including author names, affiliations and ORCID iDs — is distributed to indexing services and metadata infrastructures, among them Crossref, OAI-PMH, OpenAlex and discovery services. Author and reviewer email addresses are not shared.

Retention

Authorship data of published works is retained indefinitely, as part of the permanent public record of scholarly publication. Registration data with no associated submission may be deleted on request.

Data subject rights

Under Art. 18 of the Brazilian General Data Protection Law, data subjects may request confirmation of processing, access, correction, anonymisation, portability, information about sharing, and withdrawal of consent. Requests should be sent to editorial@pidcc.com.br and are answered within 15 days.

One limitation: authorship of an already published work cannot be erased, as it forms part of the permanent scholarly record. Corrections to spelling, affiliation and identifiers are made at any time.
