Direct Marketing Policy

Jurnal Pendidikan dan Pengajaran Guru Sekolah Dasar (JPPGuseda) is committed to maintaining a professional, transparent, and respectful approach in all direct marketing and promotional activities. Our goal is to communicate effectively with potential authors, reviewers, and readers while strictly upholding the integrity and reputation of the journal.

To ensure that our outreach aligns with the best practices of scholarly publishing (including DOAJ and OASPA guidelines), JPPGuseda adheres to the following principles:

  • Targeted and Relevant Communication: All direct marketing efforts—such as Call for Papers or invitations to submit—are specifically targeted toward individuals, researchers, and institutions whose academic work directly aligns with the journal’s focus on elementary and primary education. We do not engage in indiscriminate, mass email broadcasting (spam).

  • Unobtrusiveness and Respect for Privacy: We ensure that our marketing communications are unobtrusive and respectful of the recipients' time. We avoid excessive follow-ups and guarantee that every promotional email includes a clear, easy mechanism for individuals to "opt-out" or unsubscribe from receiving future communications.

  • Truthful and Accurate Information: All information provided in our marketing materials is truthful, accurate, and up-to-date. We transparently present the journal’s aims and scope, editorial board structure, double-blind peer-review process, and Article Processing Charges (APCs).

  • Non-Misleading Representation: JPPGuseda strictly avoids misleading or exaggerated claims regarding the journal's indexing status, impact metrics, or guaranteed publication timelines. Potential authors are provided with clear, factual information to help them make informed decisions regarding their manuscript submissions.

By adhering to this policy, JPPGuseda aims to foster trust within the academic community, promote the journal’s mission responsibly, and ensure that our promotional activities contribute positively to the global scholarly dialogue.
