Advertising policies

Zabol University of Medical Sciences Publishing focuses on electronic publishing rather than printing matters. Therefore, we prepared a very fast and reliable infrastructure for all related business in spreading their message to the correct audiences via the web. After a warm welcome to all related companies for advertising through our website, we would like to draw your attention about our policies and regulations in advertising your products within our publications.

1. Advertisements are independent from editorial board decisions and editorial content is not compromised by commercial or financial interests, or by any specific arrangements with advertising clients or sponsors.

2. Zabol University of Medical Sciences Publishing is able to withdraw any advertisement even after deploying online (at any time), if the Editor-in-Chief or Publisher requested to remove any ads.

3. Advertisements and editorial content must be clearly distinguishable. Kowsar will not publish “advertorial” content, and sponsored supplements must be clearly indicated as such. If a supplement did not undergo peer review or underwent a peer review-process different from the rest of the journal that should be explicitly stated.

4. Editorial decisions will not be influenced by current or potential sponsors and advertisers, and will not be influenced by marketing decisions. Advertisers and sponsors have no control or influence over the results of searches a user may conduct on the website by keyword or search topic.
