- Maintain the integrity of the article.
- Retain copyright notices and links to these terms and conditions so it is clear to other users what can and cannot be done with the article.

- Any translations, for which a prior translation agreement with IAFOR has not been established, must prominently display the statement: "This is an unofficial translation of an article that appeared in an IAFOR publication. IAFOR has not endorsed this translation."
