JSH is committed to protecting authors' intellectual property rights, promoting equitable access to scholarly knowledge, and supporting the responsible dissemination, reuse, and preservation of published research.

This Copyright and Licensing Policy establishes copyright ownership, the rights granted to the journal, the conditions governing public reuse, and the responsibilities of authors, readers, and other users of published materials.

JSH publishes scholarly articles under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License (CC BY-SA 4.0). The policy applies to articles written in Bahasa Indonesia and English, subject to the licensing terms applicable to each published work.

1. Copyright Ownership

Authors who publish their scholarly work in JSH retain copyright ownership of their original articles.

Copyright is not transferred to JSH or CV. Surya Buana merely because a manuscript is submitted, accepted, or published.

Authors retain their rights to be identified as creators and to use, distribute, reproduce, and further develop their scholarly contributions, subject to applicable law, third-party rights, and the publishing agreement.

Where a work is jointly authored, the authors must ensure that relevant copyright holders have authorized its submission and publication.

Authors must possess the necessary rights to publish their manuscripts and grant the permissions required by this policy.

2. Right of First Publication

By agreeing to publish an accepted manuscript, authors grant JSH a non-exclusive right of first publication.

This authorization permits JSH to:

  1. Publish the accepted scholarly work as the journal's version of record.
  2. Reproduce, format, copyedit, and distribute the article for legitimate publication purposes.
  3. Make the article immediately accessible through the official journal website.
  4. Disseminate bibliographic information and article metadata.
  5. Register or maintain a Digital Object Identifier (DOI) for the article.
  6. Support legitimate indexing, repository distribution, discovery, and preservation activities.
  7. Maintain the article within the scholarly record, subject to applicable editorial policies.

The right of first publication does not prevent authors from exercising their retained copyright or entering into other lawful non-exclusive distribution arrangements.

8. Moral Rights, Attribution Integrity, and Privacy

JSH recognizes that copyright licensing does not eliminate all legal and ethical rights associated with scholarly works.

Authors retain applicable moral rights under relevant law, including rights concerning proper attribution and protection against legally actionable misrepresentation.

Creative Commons licensing does not authorize false attribution, implied endorsement, or misuse of author or participant identities.

Publication or reuse of identifiable personal information, interviews, photographs, or sensitive research materials may require separate consent or authorization.

Authors and users must respect privacy, confidentiality, research ethics, and rights independent of copyright.

9. Copyright Notices and Article Metadata

JSH seeks to display clear, consistent copyright and licensing information on published article pages and in relevant article metadata.

Recommended Copyright Notice: Copyright © [Year] [Author Name(s)].

Recommended License Statement: This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License (CC BY-SA 4.0).

The copyright year, copyright holder, and license must reflect the rights applicable to each individual article.

The journal seeks consistency between article landing pages, PDFs, and registered publication metadata.

Historical articles containing different copyright statements or licenses must be assessed individually before correction.

Existing rights and valid public licenses must not be retrospectively changed in a way that infringes the rights of copyright holders or license recipients.

10. Copyright Complaints and Infringement Concerns

Authors, readers, rights holders, and concerned parties may report suspected copyright infringement or inaccurate licensing information.

Reports should identify:

  1. The title, DOI, or URL of the affected article.
  2. The material or rights involved.
  3. The alleged infringement or licensing error.
  4. Supporting documentation or evidence.
  5. Contact information for follow-up.

The Editorial Team will assess concerns fairly and may request clarification, proof of authorization, or independent advice.

Research misconduct concerns are addressed under the Publication Ethics and Allegations of Misconduct policies.

11. Editorial Independence and Publication Fees

JSH is published by CV. Surya Buana and managed by an Editorial Team appointed by the publisher's leadership.

The Editorial Team independently manages academic assessment, peer review, and publication decisions.

Authors' copyright ownership and Creative Commons licensing rights are not transferred to the publisher through payment of publication fees.

The Article Processing Charge (APC) of IDR 500,000 per accepted article is a publication-related administrative fee, not a payment for copyright ownership or guaranteed acceptance.

APC payment does not influence reviewer selection, editorial assessment, acceptance decisions, or author rights.

The Editorial Team implements licensing requirements, maintains appropriate publication notices, and addresses rights-related concerns.

CV. Surya Buana provides institutional and operational support while respecting authors' intellectual property rights and editorial independence.

JSH may update this policy in response to changes in law, publishing standards, technical infrastructure, and responsible open-access practices.
