What OriginMark is and isn't
It IS
- · Cryptographic proof that a specific file existed at a specific moment
- · A qualified RFC 3161 timestamp issued by DigiCert
- · An immutable Bitcoin anchor (OpenTimestamps)
- · Court-admissible under eIDAS Art. 41 (EU)
- · Recognised globally under the Berne Convention as evidence of first publication date
It is NOT
- · A copyright registration (©) — copyright arises automatically; we strengthen the proof
- · A trademark registration (™/®) — for that, talk to a trademark office or our affiliate partners
- · A patent
- · Legal advice — for high-stakes disputes, hire a lawyer
- · A guarantee against infringement — it's the strongest evidence; not a magic shield
