Advertising Policy

  1. IJELP sets high ethical standards in all its activities and, above all, defends the right to editorial independence. It does not allow advertising or sponsorship to influence the decisions made on editorial content.
  2. Readers understand that advertising is different from editorial material. They know that IJELP does not endorse the claims made in advertising.
  3. IJELP will carry advertisements that are legal and decent and conform to current recommendations and guidelines.
  4. The advertising department makes decisions about the positioning of advertisements independently of the editorial department's decisions about the content of a specific issue.
  5. Advertising will not influence editorial material. IJELP publishes no material to accompany advertising and sells no advertising in relation to particular articles.
  6. All decisions are at the discretion of the editor. If commercial clients adhere to these guidelines, then their advertisement or sponsorship is likely to be accepted. Occasionally decisions may take time.
