Appendix “Author’s Self-Archiving Rights”

The Publisher acknowledges that the Author retains rights to archive the Contribution but only subject to and
in accordance with the following provisions:
1. Preprint:
A “Preprint” is defined as the Author´s version of the Contribution submitted to the Publisher but
before any peer review or any other editorial work by or on behalf of the Publisher has taken place.
The Author may make available the Preprint of the Contribution for personal and private reading
purposes only on any of:
(a) the Author's own personal, self-maintained website over which the Author has sole operational
control; and/or
(b) a legally compliant, non-commercial preprint server, such as but not limited to arXiv, bioRxiv and
RePEc; provided always that once the “Version of Record” (as defined below) of the Contribution has
been published by or on behalf of the Publisher, the Author shall immediately ensure that any Preprint
made available above shall contain a link to the Version of Record and the following acknowledgement:
“This is a preprint of the following chapter: [author of the chapter], [chapter title], published in [book
title], edited by [editor of the book], [year of publication], [publisher (as it appears on the cover of the
book)] reproduced with permission of [publisher (as it appears on the copyright page of the book)]. The
final authenticated version is available online at: http://dx.doi.org/[insert DOI]”.
2. Author’s Accepted Manuscript:
The “Author’s Accepted Manuscript” (“AAM”) is defined as the version of the Contribution following
any peer review and acceptance, but prior to copy-editing and typesetting, by or on behalf of the
Publisher.
The Author may make available the AAM of the Contribution on any of:
(a) the Author's own, personal, self-maintained website over which the Author has sole operational
control; and/or
(b) the Author's employer’s internal website or their academic institution or funder´s repository;
provided that in each case the respective part of the AAM is not made publicly available until after the
Embargo Period.
The "Embargo Period" is a period ending twenty-four (24) months from the first publication of the
“Version of Record” (as defined below) of the Contribution by or on behalf of the Publisher.
The Author must ensure that any part of the AAM made available contains the following:
“Users may only view, print, copy, download and text- and data-mine the content, for the purposes of
academic research. The content may not be (re-)published verbatim in whole or in part or used for
commercial purposes. Users must ensure that the author’s moral rights as well as any third parties’
rights to the content or parts of the content are not compromised.”
These terms shall also be applicable to the Author.
Once the Version of Record (as defined below) of the Contribution has been published by or on behalf
of the Publisher the Author shall immediately ensure that any part of the AAM made available shall
contain a link to the Version of Record and the following acknowledgement:
“This is an Author Accepted Manuscript version of the following chapter: [author of the chapter],
[chapter title], published in [book title], edited by [editor of the book], [year of publication], [publisher
(as it appears on the cover of the book)] reproduced with permission of [publisher (as it appears on the
copyright page of the book)]. The final authenticated version is available online at:
http://dx.doi.org/[insert DOI]”.
3. Version of Record:
The “Version of Record” is defined as the final version of the Contribution as originally published, and
as may be subsequently amended following publication in a contractually compliant manner, by or on
behalf of the Publisher.
4. Any linking, collection or aggregation of self-archived Contributions from the same Work is strictly
prohibited.

Appendix “Author’s Reuse Rights”
1. The Publisher acknowledges that the Author retains the ability to copy, distribute or otherwise reuse
the Contribution, without the requirement to seek specific prior written permission from the Publisher,
(“Reuse”) subject to and in accordance with the following provisions:
(a) Reuse of the Contribution or any part of it is permitted in a new edition of the Work or in a new
monograph or new textbook written by the same Author provided that in each case the new work is
published by the Publisher under a publishing agreement with the Publisher; and
(b) Reuse of the Version of Record (as defined below) of the Contribution or any part of it is permitted
in a thesis written by the same Author, and the Author is entitled to make a copy of the thesis
containing content of the Contribution available in a repository of the Author’s awarding academic
institution, or other repository required by the awarding institution; an acknowledgement should be
included in the citation: “Reproduced with permission from Springer Nature”; and
(c) any other Reuse of the Contribution in a new book, book chapter, proceedings or journal article,
whether published by the Publisher or by any third party, is limited to three figures (including tables) or
a single text extract of less than 400 words; and
(d) any further Reuse of the Contribution is permitted only to the extent and in so far as is reasonably
necessary: (i) to share the Contribution as a whole to no more than 10 research colleagues engaged by
the same institution or employer as the Author for each colleague's personal and private use only; (ii)
for classroom teaching use by the Author in their respective academic institution provided that the
Contribution or any part of it is not included in course packs for sale or wider distribution to any
students, institutions or other persons nor any other form of commercial or systematic exploitation; or
(iii) for the Author to use all or parts of the Contribution in the further development of the Author's
scientific and/or academic career, for private use and research or within a strictly limited circulation
which does not allow the Contribution to become publicly accessible nor prejudice sales of, or the
exploitation of the Publisher's rights in, the Contribution (e.g. attaching a copy of the Contribution to a
job or grant application).
2. Any Reuse must be based on the Version of Record only, and the original source of publication must be
cited according to current citation standards. The "Version of Record" is defined as the final version of
the Contribution as originally published, and as may be subsequently amended following publication in
a contractually compliant manner, by or on behalf of the Publisher.
3. In each case where the Author has Reuse rights or the Publisher grants specific use rights to the Author
according to the above provisions, this shall be subject always to the Author obtaining at the Author's
sole responsibility, cost and expense the prior consent of any co-author(s) and/or any relevant third
party.
4. Any linking, collection or aggregation of reused Contributions from the same Work is strictly prohibited.
