FIRST SEEN 2026-09-02 · VERSION 20260902_rev01 · COMPARED WITH 20260901_rev01

What changed, in plain language

The only change is an updated obfuscated email-protection link for Elsevier's product safety contact. The visible contact details, address, and all legal terms are unchanged.

This change appears to be cosmetic (formatting, typos, or contact details).

Changelog

± CHANGEDProduct safety contact link code refreshed
The scrambled web link behind the product safety email address was replaced with a new scrambled version. The email still goes to the same place, and the postal address and contact instructions did not change.
