1. Author Ownership
Unless a separate written agreement states otherwise, an Author retains ownership of the copyright in their original literary or creative work.
Submitting a poem, story, article, manuscript, photograph, artwork, video, or other Content to Muktika Publication does not by itself transfer ownership of the copyright to Muktika Publication.

The exact rights granted may vary where a separate publishing agreement exists.

Where such an agreement exists, its terms will govern the relevant rights.

However, Authors must understand that publishing Content publicly may allow visitors to read and share the publication link.
Authors should not submit confidential material that they do not wish to make publicly available.
