Refund Policy - Reviewers

Last updated 02 Aug 2026

This Refund Policy explains how refunds are handled for reviewers using Article Management System, operated by Technology Fist.

Reviewing is a voluntary/uncompensated role on this platform; no fees are charged to reviewers, so no refund policy applies.

  • Refund requests, where applicable, should be raised with the relevant conference/journal in the first instance, and with Technology Fist for platform-level (hosting/renewal/publication) fees.
  • Approved refunds are returned using the same payment method used for the original payment, where technically possible.
  • This policy does not affect any statutory rights you may have under the law that applies to you.
