Data policy for Transformations. A DARIAH journal

The core principle of this policy is that data and other digital research objects underlying published research must be made available whenever legally, ethically, and technically possible. This policy is grounded in the FAIR principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable), and, where relevant, the CARE principles (Collective Benefit, Authority to Control, Responsibility, and Ethics). It supports the journal’s commitment to transparency, responsible Open Science, long-term stewardship, and the meaningful reuse of research outputs. This Data Policy supports authors in providing a clear and consolidated account of the data and digital research objects associated with their publications. It should be read alongside the journal’s evaluation criteria and the Author Guidelines available in Transformations' website, which provide further information on submission requirements, review expectations, and recommended practices.
