Authors should not make payments to unauthorized agents or third parties claiming to represent the journal.
Refund requests will be assessed according to the publisher’s applicable Refund and Cancellation Policy and the circumstances of the case.
Authors wishing to withdraw a manuscript must submit a written request through the corresponding author. The journal may request confirmation that all co-authors agree to the withdrawal.
A manuscript must not be withdrawn merely to submit the same work elsewhere while it remains under consideration, without first obtaining confirmation that the withdrawal has been processed.
If a manuscript has already been published, ordinary withdrawal is generally not appropriate. Corrections, expressions of concern, or retractions may be considered where justified by research errors, ethical concerns, legal requirements, or other significant circumstances.
No provision in these Terms excludes any refund or other right that cannot lawfully be excluded.
IJMRHCS expects authors, reviewers, and editors to follow accepted standards of research integrity and ethical scholarly publishing.
The journal does not permit:
Plagiarism or unattributed use of another person’s work.
Fabrication or falsification of data or research results.
Duplicate or redundant publication without appropriate disclosure.
Improper authorship or undisclosed changes to authorship.
Citation manipulation or deceptive research practices.
Misrepresentation of permissions, ethical approvals, affiliations, or findings.
Unethical handling or disclosure of confidential patient information.
Submission of clinical or medical research without required ethical oversight.
Where concerns arise, the journal may request explanations, supporting information, or relevant approvals. Depending on the circumstances, editorial action may include rejection, suspension of review, correction, an expression of concern, or retraction of a published article.
Authors are responsible for obtaining any required institutional ethics committee approval, informed consent, patient permissions, clinical trial registration, and other authorizations relevant to their research.
The journal may use plagiarism-detection tools, editorial checks, and other appropriate methods to assess submitted manuscripts.
Similarity scores are not, by themselves, a definitive determination of plagiarism. Editorial decisions may consider the nature, source, context, and extent of overlapping material.
Authors may be asked to clarify similarities, provide source documents, or revise their manuscripts where appropriate.
Authors retain copyright unless a separate written agreement or applicable licence provides otherwise.
Upon acceptance, authors may be required to grant IJMRHCS the non-exclusive or other expressly stated rights necessary to publish, distribute, display, preserve, and promote the article.
The precise copyright arrangement and any licence governing reuse must be stated in the applicable publishing agreement or article record.
Authors must not submit material for which they lack the necessary rights or permissions. Third-party material remains subject to its respective copyright and licence conditions.
Where an article is designated as open access, its access and reuse conditions will be stated on the journal website or in the published article.
Free online reading does not automatically mean that all content may be reproduced, adapted, or commercially reused without restriction.
Readers and authors must follow the copyright notice and licence applicable to each article. Where no open licence is expressly stated, applicable copyright law and the rights granted by the copyright holder govern reuse.
Authors may be asked to review proofs or confirm publication details before publication.
Authors must carefully check names, affiliations, article titles, references, tables, figures, clinical information, and other publication details.
After publication, requests for correction will be assessed according to their nature and significance. Substantive errors affecting the reliability or interpretation of an article may require a formal correction, expression of concern, or retraction.
The journal reserves the right to publish appropriate editorial notices to maintain the integrity of the scholarly record.
Reviewers are expected to:
Treat manuscripts and associated information as confidential.
Provide objective, constructive, and evidence-based assessments.
Identify potential ethical concerns or significant errors.
Disclose conflicts of interest.
Decline reviews when they lack relevant expertise or cannot complete the review appropriately.
Avoid using unpublished information for personal or professional advantage.
Respect patient confidentiality and the privacy of individuals described in submitted research.
Reviewers must not share or distribute confidential manuscripts without authorization.
The journal and publisher may process personal information such as names, email addresses, affiliations, telephone numbers, submitted manuscripts, reviewer comments, and publication records for legitimate editorial, administrative, communication, and publication purposes.
Information may be shared with editors, reviewers, service providers, or other parties where reasonably necessary for the relevant service, subject to applicable requirements and confidentiality obligations.
The journal will take reasonable measures to protect personal information against unauthorized access, use, disclosure, alteration, or loss.
Personal information will be handled in accordance with the applicable Privacy Policy and laws in force. Users should consult the journal’s Privacy Policy for additional information about data collection, use, retention, and applicable rights.
Users must not:
Attempt unauthorized access to the website, databases, or administrative systems.
Introduce malware or malicious code.
Interfere with website functionality or other users’ access.
Submit knowingly false, fraudulent, unlawful, or misleading information.
Use the website to violate intellectual property, privacy, or other legal rights.

The journal may restrict access, investigate suspected misuse, or take appropriate action where necessary to protect its systems, users, and services.
The website may link to external websites or use third-party services for hosting, communications, payments, manuscript handling, or other operational purposes.
External services operate under their own terms and privacy policies. IJMRHCS does not control all third-party systems and cannot guarantee their continuous availability, accuracy, or security.
The inclusion of an external link does not, by itself, constitute endorsement, accreditation, indexing, or formal affiliation.
The journal may provide information about its indexing, abstracting, identifiers, or other academic services where applicable and verifiable.
No statement in these Terms constitutes a guarantee of acceptance into any indexing database, ranking system, impact-factor service, or academic evaluation programme.
Authors should independently verify any indexing or recognition claim through the relevant service’s official website.
The journal makes reasonable efforts to maintain accurate website information and reliable publication services. However, website content may occasionally contain errors, become temporarily unavailable, or require updating.
The views and conclusions expressed in published articles are those of their authors and do not necessarily represent the views of the journal, publisher, editors, or reviewers.
Publication does not constitute a guarantee that every finding, method, clinical recommendation, or conclusion is error-free or suitable for every purpose. Published research should not be treated as a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, the journal and publisher shall not be liable for indirect or consequential losses arising from temporary website unavailability, third-party service interruptions, or reliance on information provided by independent third parties.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability where such exclusion or limitation is prohibited by applicable law, including any non-waivable rights or remedies.
The journal will not be responsible for delays caused by circumstances reasonably beyond its control, including natural disasters, public emergencies, power or internet failures, cyber incidents, government restrictions, or major third-party service disruptions.
Where practicable, the journal will take reasonable steps to resume affected services and communicate significant delays.
Questions or complaints concerning submissions, editorial conduct, publication charges, corrections, or these Terms should be sent to the official contact addresses listed below.
The journal will review complaints in good faith and, where appropriate, refer them to the responsible editorial or publishing representative.
Nothing in this section prevents a person from exercising any legal right or seeking a remedy available under applicable law.
IJMRHCS may revise these Terms and Conditions when necessary to reflect changes in its services, publication practices, or applicable legal requirements.
The latest version will be published on the website with an updated revision date. Changes will apply prospectively unless otherwise required by law. Continued use of the relevant services after an update indicates acceptance where legally valid.
These Terms and Conditions are intended to be governed by the applicable laws of India.
Any dispute shall be handled by a competent court or authority with jurisdiction under applicable law. Nothing in this clause removes any mandatory legal protection or jurisdiction that applies to a user.

Physical orders that have already been shipped may require the applicable return process.
Requests must include the relevant manuscript ID, order reference, payment details, and reason for cancellation.

Submission does not guarantee acceptance or publication.
Payment does not guarantee a favourable editorial decision.
Authors must confirm the applicable charges and payment instructions before paying.
Required publication payments must be completed according to the communicated payment terms.
Any additional services or charges must be disclosed before the author agrees to them.

The payment schedule and outstanding balance must be communicated to the author.
The balance must be paid by the agreed deadline before publication, where applicable.
If payment remains outstanding, publication processing may be paused after reasonable notice.

If plagiarism, fabricated data, falsified information, duplicate submission, unethical research practices, or other serious ethical misconduct is identified, IJMRHCS may reject the manuscript or take appropriate action concerning a published article.
Any refund request in such circumstances will be assessed individually. Ethical concerns do not automatically justify retaining every amount paid; the decision must follow the applicable policy and law.
Author-requested corrections, substantial changes, printed copies, or other optional services may incur additional charges if these are disclosed and agreed upon in advance.
An author may request a transfer of a manuscript to another journal where a suitable transfer arrangement exists.
Transfer is subject to the receiving journal's scope and editorial approval.
A transfer does not guarantee acceptance or publication by the receiving journal.

The receiving journal's editorial, review, copyright, and publication policies will apply as relevant.

Any disputed charge will be reviewed upon receipt of the author's written explanation and supporting documents.
Refund requests will be assessed according to the stage of processing, services already provided, the information disclosed before payment, and applicable law.
A partial refund may be considered where appropriate, taking account of work completed and any lawful, previously disclosed charges.
A refund may be considered after reviewing the editorial and production work completed, the agreed terms, and the circumstances of the withdrawal.
Publication-related fees will not ordinarily be refundable solely because an author changes their mind after publication. However, requests involving duplicate payment, a billing error, a service not provided, or other justified circumstances will be reviewed under the applicable policy and law.
Once a refund is approved, it will normally be initiated within 2–5 working days. The actual credit time depends on the payment provider or bank.
Any deduction must be lawful, properly disclosed, and supported by the applicable terms.
Authors may request withdrawal by contacting the editorial office. The journal will confirm the status of the request.
A withdrawal request may be considered by the editorial team. Authors should provide the reason for withdrawal and confirmation from the corresponding author.
A published article cannot ordinarily be withdrawn simply at the author's request. Where serious research errors, ethical misconduct, patient confidentiality concerns, legal issues, or other exceptional circumstances arise, IJMRHCS may consider a correction, retraction, or another appropriate editorial action.
All requests must be submitted through official communication channels with sufficient manuscript and author details.
Authors must:
Submit original work and accurately acknowledge sources.
