Overview

License conditions outline the terms and permissions granted by the copyright holder to the publisher for the use, distribution, and access to the article. These conditions vary based on the type of license selected. For articles published behind a paywall, an Exclusive License is required, granting the publisher exclusive rights to publish and distribute the work. 

Key aspects of the license conditions may include:

• Copyright Ownership: Defines who holds the copyright and whether it is transferred or retained by the author.
• Permissions: Specifies how the article can be used, shared, and distributed.
• Contributor License: Determines whether the article will be freely available or behind a paywall.
• Author's Rights: Outlines what rights the author retains, such as the ability to reuse the work in future publications or share it in institutional repositories.

It is important for authors to carefully review and accept the terms of the chosen license to ensure their work is published under the desired conditions.
