>Delivery Policy
Ordered journals, magazines and other periodicals are deemed
delivered to the member upon IEEE submission of the periodical materials to the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) for member
addresses in the United States or Canada or to a USPS postal
qualified wholesaler for addresses in other countries, with prepaid
postage or charges as required for the relevant service class and
destination, addressed to the address provided by the member.
Upon satisfying such delivery conditions, IEEE is without further
responsibility or risk and no dues or fees shall be subject to any
refund for periodicals non-receipt caused for any reason. When
IEEE is advised of such failed receipt of periodical materials and
is provided with a corrected address if needed, it will resend a
replacement copy of the non-received materials (if available), but
has no other duty or obligation.
>IEEE Terms of Use
IEEE and its licensors own all rights, title and interest in the contents
of IEEE Xplore and all IEEE periodicals, conference proceedings,
and standards. Access to and use of such contents are subject to
the terms and conditions of applicable license agreements, United
States copyright law and international copyright laws and treaties.
Notice to IEEE members with multiple subscriptions:
Subscriptions to IEEE periodicals are available to IEEE members
at fees that are substantially discounted as compared to those
charged to non-members. IEEE provides this discount in order
to foster the knowledge and professional development of its
members, and it does so upon the understanding that members
will only make scholarly or research use of their subscriptions to
IEEE periodicals and not exploit them for commercial gain (e.g.
by reselling them or using them as part of a document delivery
service). Accordingly, members who subscribe to 15 or more
IEEE periodicals must certify that they will only make scholarly or
research use of those periodicals.
