Policy Framework of Authenticated Research
These policies collectively define the operational, ethical, and legal framework governing the use of the Authenticated Research (AR) platform.
Authenticated Research (AR) is an AI-powered research evaluation and certification platform designed to help researchers assess, improve, and strengthen the quality of their manuscripts before submitting them to journals or conferences.
AR does not function as a journal or publisher. Instead, the platform provides structured analytical evaluation reports that assist authors in improving the academic quality, clarity, and societal relevance of their research work.
By accessing or using the AR platform, users agree to the policies and terms described below.
1. Nature of the Service
Payments made on the AR platform are for research manuscript evaluation services.
Once the evaluation process has been initiated, the service is considered to be in progress.
2. Refund Eligibility
Refund requests may be considered under limited circumstances, including:
Duplicate payments
Technical failure preventing report generation
Administrative errors
3. Non-Refundable Situations
Refunds will not be issued in cases where:
The evaluation report has already been generated
The user disagrees with the evaluation outcome
4. Refund Processing
Approved refunds will be processed through the original payment method within a reasonable time frame.
