Our journal supports and encourages self-archiving practices. Authors are permitted to deposit all versions of their paper in an institutional or subject repository, including:

• Preprint: The version of the manuscript before peer review.
• Author's Accepted Manuscript: The version of the manuscript after peer review but before final publication.
• Published Article (Version of Record): The final version of the article as published in the journal.

There is no embargo period applied to any version. Authors may upload these versions immediately upon acceptance or publication.

Copyright and Licensing: While authors retain full copyright and publishing rights, the final published version is made available under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International License (CC BY-NC-SA 4.0). Authors should ensure that self-archived versions are compliant with this license and provide appropriate credit.

Repository Compliance: Authors are responsible for ensuring that their self-archived versions comply with the policies of their chosen repository, including any specific requirements for metadata or licensing information.

Updating Versions: If a new version of the manuscript is published, authors are encouraged to update their self-archived versions to reflect the most recent and accurate version of the article.
