This form is +intended for original material submitted to the IACR and must accompany any such +material in order to be published by the IACR.

IACR Policy on Copyrights and Publications for the Communications in Cryptology

+ +

It is the policy of the International Association for Cryptologic Research +(hereinafter referred to as "IACR") to make the scientific material +published in the IACR Communications in Cryptology widely available under a permissive +license.

+ +

The IACR distributes the Communications in Cryptology using open Internet distribution. +The IACR may also abstract and translate its publications, or parts of them, for +inclusion in various compendiums and similar publications, etc. When material is +submitted to the IACR for publication in Communications in Cryptology, the authors implicitly +consent that the IACR has the rights to do all of these things.

+ +

In addition to material in technical publications, the IACR also intends to +distribute additional supporting material (such as data sets and software tools). +For this purpose, the IACR requests the permission from the authors to do so +in Part I. Following a decision in August 2016, +granting permission to distribute this material (even if none are provided) +is mandatory.

+ +

IACR Policy on Public Dissemination

+

+This policy applies to all material submitted to the IACR: The IACR must of +necessity assume that material submitted to its +publications is properly available for general dissemination to the world. It is +the responsibility of the authors, not the IACR, to determine whether disclosure +of their material requires the prior consent of other parties and, if so, to +obtain it. The authors should also guarantee that their material does not +contain libelous statements. +

+ +

Furthermore, if authors use within their article material that has been +previously published and/or is copyrighted by another party, the IACR must +assume that permission has been obtained for such use and that any required +credit lines, copyright notices, etc., are duly noted. +

+ +

Availability of Material in IACR Communications in Cryptology: CC-BY

+ +

The Communications in Cryptology are using +the Creative Commons +Attribution 4.0 License (CC-BY), one of the least restrictive of the CC +licenses, which not only allows copying, transmission, and distribution but also +adaptation of papers, with proper attribution. Creative Commons is a nonprofit +organization that provides several alternatives to the traditional copyright +agreement, with the goal of maximizing ability to share and use published +material legally.

+ +

You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license under which +the work was published +(http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/), and indicate if +changes were made. You may do so in any reasonable manner, but not in any way +that suggests the licensor endorses you or your use.

+ +

Citations to an article in the Communications in Cryptology should specify the following information: +

+ Author names, title of the work, name of the journal (Communications in Cryptology), volume and number of the publication, page range, publication year, and DOI. +
+This license eliminates the need to have a transfer of copyright agreement as the author of the paper maintains the copyright.

+ +

For more background information, see e.g. + https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creative_Commons_license and + http://www.aje.com/en/arc/creative-commons-intro/. + + +

Author/Company Rights

+ +

If an author is employed and prepared an article as a part of her/his job, +the rights to the material may rest initially with the employer. In that case, +when authors sign this form, the IACR assumes that the signing authors are +authorized to do so by their employers and that their employers have consented +to all the terms and conditions of this form. If not, it should be signed by +someone so authorized. (See also the Public Dissemination policy above.)
