SSJ Publications is committed to promoting research transparency, reproducibility, and integrity by encouraging authors to make the data supporting their published findings openly available whenever ethically, legally, and practically possible.

Authors should include a Data Availability Statement in all submitted manuscripts describing where the underlying data can be accessed, the conditions for access, or the reasons why the data cannot be shared. Data may be deposited in recognized public, institutional, or subject-specific repositories with a persistent identifier (e.g., DOI or accession number).

Where data cannot be shared due to privacy, confidentiality, intellectual property, legal, or ethical restrictions, authors must clearly state the reason in the manuscript. Editors may request access to the underlying data during peer review to verify the validity of the reported results.

Authors are responsible for ensuring that shared datasets are accurate, complete, appropriately anonymized where required, and comply with applicable institutional, funding agency, and regulatory requirements.

SSJ Publications supports responsible data sharing practices that enhance the credibility, reproducibility, and long-term value of scholarly research while respecting ethical and legal obligations.
