Licence

Authors sign the license agreement, where authors have copyright but license exclusive rights in their article to the publisher. In this case authors have a range of rights, including:

• The right to share or reuse their article in the same ways permitted to third parties under the Creative Commons Attribution-NoDerivatives 4.0 (CC BY-ND 4.0) license. Following it, the author can "copy and redistribute the material in any medium or format for any purpose, even commercially. The licensor cannot revoke these freedoms as long as you follow the license terms."
• Authors retain patent, trademark and other intellectual property rights (including research data).
• Authors receive proper attribution and credit for the published work.
