01Acceptance and scope
These Terms of Use govern access to and use of the public website operated by Panorama Scholarly Group Ltd (“PSG”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) at panorama-sg.com. By using the website, you agree to follow these Terms and applicable laws.
If you do not agree, please do not use the website. Linked services may have additional terms, notices, or licensing conditions that apply alongside these Terms.
02Scholarly content
The website presents information about the group, its imprints, journals, books, research, infrastructure, announcements, and partnerships. It supports scholarly discovery and communication.
Information may change as programmes develop, journals update their records, or external platforms publish new material. A page does not itself constitute an offer to publish, acceptance of a submission, an academic credential, legal or medical advice, or a guarantee of an editorial or research outcome.
03Permitted use
You may use the website for lawful personal, educational, research, professional, and informational purposes. You may:
- read, search, and link to public pages;
- quote reasonable portions with clear attribution and a link to the source page; and
- share public links without misrepresenting the group, an imprint, a journal, an author, or a partner.
You must not interfere with the website, bypass access or security controls, introduce malicious code, impersonate another person or organisation, place an unreasonable automated load on the service, or violate another person’s rights or applicable law.
04Intellectual property
Unless a page or linked publication states otherwise, the website’s design, text, graphics, logos, data presentations, and other materials are owned by PSG or used with permission. Journal articles, books, images, and third-party marks may belong to their respective rights holders and may have separate terms.
These Terms do not transfer ownership or a licence beyond the limited permission to use public pages for the purposes described above. For permission to reproduce material beyond those purposes, contact the rights holder or [email protected].
05External platforms
The website links to independent journal, book, research, indexing, profile, credential, library, and partner platforms. External websites are not controlled by PSG; their availability, content, accessibility, privacy, security, and terms are the relevant operator’s responsibility.
A link does not mean that PSG endorses every statement, product, service, or organisation on the destination site. Read its terms before submitting information, a manuscript, a proposal, or a payment.
06User communications
If you contact the group, provide information you are authorised to share. Do not send confidential, privileged, or highly sensitive material unless the relevant PSG team has expressly requested it through an appropriate channel.
An unsolicited message does not create a confidential relationship, editorial obligation, employment relationship, or promise of publication. We may use it to respond, route the enquiry, protect the website, and meet obligations. Our handling of personal information is described in the Privacy Policy.
07Disclaimers and liability
The website and public information are provided for general information. To the extent permitted by law, PSG does not warrant that the website will always be available, uninterrupted, error-free, complete, current, or that every external link will remain active.
To the extent permitted by law, PSG is not responsible for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or loss-of-data damages arising from access to or use of the website, an external platform, or linked information. Nothing excludes or limits a right or remedy that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
08Changes and contact
We may update these Terms when the website, group services, or applicable requirements change. The updated version takes effect when published. Continued use after an update indicates acceptance of the revised Terms.
Questions may be sent to [email protected]. You can also write to Panorama Scholarly Group Ltd through either office listed on the Contact page.
