Licensing Terms

Open licensing, responsible reuse, and authors' distribution rights

Intellect: Indonesian Journal of Learning and Technological Innovation, published by Yayasan Lembaga Studi Makwa (Makwa Foundation), provides open access to its published research. This Licensing Terms statement explains how articles may be shared, adapted, and redistributed while respecting author rights and the conditions of the journal's Creative Commons license.

1. Copyright and Right of First Publication

Authors who publish with Intellect retain copyright in their original work and grant the journal the non-exclusive right of first publication. The journal does not require a transfer of copyright or an exclusive assignment of commercial rights.

The published article is made available under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International license. The right of first publication does not prevent authors from entering subsequent non-exclusive agreements for distribution of their work, provided that its initial publication in Intellect is acknowledged.

2. Creative Commons License and Permissions

The journal distributes the published Version of Record under CC BY-SA 4.0 International. The permissions below apply to article content covered by that license; clearly identified third-party material may have different rights.

3. Conditions of Reuse

Users who share or adapt material licensed under CC BY-SA 4.0 must comply with the following terms:

• Attribution (BY): Give appropriate credit to the author(s), retain applicable notices, provide a link to the license, and indicate whether changes were made. Attribution must not imply that the author(s) or journal endorse the reuse.
• ShareAlike (SA): When adapted material is shared, the adaptation must be distributed under CC BY-SA 4.0 or a compatible license permitted under the license terms.
• No additional restrictions: Do not impose legal terms or effective technological measures that restrict others from exercising rights granted by CC BY-SA 4.0.

The official CC BY-SA 4.0 legal text governs the license. This page is a plain-language explanation; it does not amend the Creative Commons license or impose additional conditions on lawful reuse.

4. Additional Non-Exclusive Distribution Arrangements

Authors may enter into separate, additional contractual arrangements for non-exclusive distribution of the published version of their work. Examples include depositing the article in an institutional or subject repository, making it available on a personal website, or including it in a scholarly book or collection.

When doing so, authors are encouraged to acknowledge the original publication in Intellect and provide the article's citation and DOI or stable article link when available. These recommendations support discovery and correct scholarly attribution and do not create additional restrictions beyond the Creative Commons license.

5. Preprints, Accepted Manuscripts, and Self-Archiving

Authors are permitted and encouraged to share their work online before and during the submission process, including through personal websites, institutional repositories, and suitable scholarly platforms. Earlier dissemination as a preprint should be disclosed to the editorial office in accordance with the journal's originality and submission policies.

Authors may also share accepted manuscripts and the published Version of Record. The journal places no embargo on repository sharing of its CC BY-SA 4.0 published articles. To prevent confusion, each deposited version should be accurately identified as a preprint, accepted manuscript, or published Version of Record.

Authors sharing the final published version are encouraged to provide a link to its original publication in Intellect, alongside its license information. Any separately licensed third-party components remain subject to their own applicable terms.

6. Third-Party Material and Other Rights

Articles may include images, figures, tables, datasets, excerpts, or other material owned by third parties. If such material is not covered by the article's CC BY-SA 4.0 license, its source, copyright status, applicable license or permission must be clearly indicated in the relevant caption, notice, or article text.

The license does not remove applicable rights relating to privacy, publicity, informed consent, confidentiality, or moral rights. Reusers must independently assess whether permission is necessary for materials excluded from the license or for uses governed by other legal rights. Exceptions and limitations to copyright continue to apply as provided by law.

7. License Information on Published Articles

To promote transparency and accurate reuse, the journal identifies the copyright holder(s) and open-access license on article pages and in publication metadata. The same information should appear in downloadable full-text files, including PDFs, so readers can readily determine the applicable rights.

The example above is illustrative. Each published article must identify its actual copyright holder(s) and applicable publication year. Rights information for the journal website itself is distinct from the copyright and licensing terms of the scholarly articles.

8. Related Policies and Official License Resources

These Licensing Terms should be read together with the journal's Copyright Notice, Open Access Statement, and Publication Ethics. Questions regarding reuse of a particular article may be directed to the Editorial Office.
