Plan-S (https://www.coalition-s.org/) compliance:

CGF is a hybrid journal (subscription-based and open access option) and as such is not Plan-S compliant per se. In many cases, publishing with CGF is Plan S-compliant due to so-called transformation agreements between Wiley and national funding agencies and/or universities. Authors are encouraged to consider the below information provided by Wiley and determine requirements that may apply, depending on their situation.
