Advertising and Direct Marketing

1. General Principle

Riset Geologi dan Pertambangan does not accept advertising in any form on its official website or in any of its publications. This policy reflects our commitment to editorial integrity, objectivity, and transparency in scholarly publishing.

2. Editorial Independence

This policy ensures that all editorial decisions and the peer-review process are based solely on the scientific merit, relevance, and quality of the manuscripts. No commercial entity or external sponsor has any influence over the selection, evaluation, or publication of research in this journal.

3. Separation from Sponsorships

While the journal may receive institutional support or research grants (as disclosed in our Funding Statement), such support is strictly separated from the editorial process. We do not publish "advertorials," "sponsored supplements," or any promotional content disguised as scholarly research. 

4. Direct Marketing Policy

Any direct marketing activities conducted by the journal (such as Call for Papers or table of contents alerts) are strictly non-commercial and are intended only for the promotion of the journal’s scientific mission. We do not share our authors' or readers' data with third parties for marketing purposes.

5. Policy Review

This non-advertising policy is reviewed periodically by the Editorial Board to ensure it continues to align with the best practices of scholarly publishing and the COPE Principles of Transparency.
