1. Double-Blind Review: GDPMR operates a double-blind peer review process, meaning both the reviewer and author identities are concealed throughout the review.
2. Reviewer Selection: Editors select reviewers based on their expertise, avoiding any conflicts of interest. Reviewers are expected to provide constructive, unbiased, and timely feedback.
3. Timelines: The review process should be completed within the agreed timeframe to ensure timely publication. Editors will communicate with reviewers and authors to ensure smooth processing.
4. Confidentiality: Manuscripts under review must be treated with confidentiality. Editors and reviewers must not share or use unpublished content for any purpose other than the review process.

1. Acceptance, Revision, or Rejection: Editorial decisions are based on the reviewers' reports and the manuscript's compliance with GDPMR’s standards. Editors may accept, request revisions, or reject manuscripts. The decision is final and communicated to the authors promptly.
2. Revisions: Authors are given the opportunity to revise their manuscripts according to reviewers' comments. The revised manuscript must be resubmitted within the stipulated time.
3. Appeals: Authors may appeal editorial decisions if they believe an error has been made. Appeals must be submitted in writing, and the editor will re-evaluate the case.

1. Authorship: All listed authors must have made significant contributions to the research and preparation of the manuscript. The corresponding author is responsible for ensuring that all authors are in agreement with the submission and its content.
2. Conflicts of Interest: Authors, reviewers, and editors must disclose any conflicts of interest that may influence the publication process.
3. Research Integrity: Editors must ensure that all research presented in manuscripts adheres to ethical standards, including compliance with institutional, national, and international research guidelines.

1. Corrections and Retractions: If errors or ethical issues are identified post-publication, GDPMR will take appropriate action to issue corrections or retract the work if necessary. Authors must notify the editors immediately if they discover errors in their published work.
2. Archiving: GDPMR ensures the digital preservation of all published content through reliable archiving platforms to maintain the accessibility of content for future reference.

1. Appointment: Editorial board members are selected based on their expertise, academic qualifications, and commitment to maintaining the journal’s high standards.
2. Contribution: Editors are expected to actively participate in the peer review process, contribute to strategic decision-making for the journal’s development, and uphold ethical standards.
3. Rotation: GDPMR periodically reviews and rotates editorial board members to ensure the inclusion of diverse perspectives and to promote academic renewal.

1. Author Queries: Editors are responsible for addressing author queries related to submission, review, and publication processes.
2. Timely Responses: Editors and reviewers should maintain professional communication and respond to inquiries promptly to ensure an efficient editorial workflow.

By following these guidelines, the Global Digital & Print Media Review (GDPMR) seeks to foster a transparent, ethical, and academically rigorous publication process that benefits authors, reviewers, and readers alike.
