+ Differences between DIGIPROOF seals and court seals |
- Differences between DIGIPROOF seals and court seals | A judicial seal is carried out by a judicial police officer, a sworn person who carries out the sealing. DIGIPROOF performs some of these functions thanks to blockchain technologies which make it possible to perform several digital fingerprints of sealed files and information relating to this seal; while associating a certain date, as well as the geolocation of the place where the seal was made. This procedure prevents any subsequent modification and thus makes the sealed file tamper-proof. In the event of legal proceedings, the magistrates will be certain that the file they consult is indeed the one which has been sealed with a certain date.

+ Examples of use |
- Examples of use | Rental and loan I lend an object to someone, I make a video seal (video report) to show the condition of the object before the loan. If necessary, I make a new video seal at the time of return to show that there is a problem. The video seals being tamper-proof, the trick is played... In the same way, I rent a vehicle I can also perform a video seal when I pick up and return the vehicle. It is inexpensive (often less than one euro) and it is very effective. Video seals can be used when renting apartments, renting equipment, etc.Invoice, guarantees, general conditions of sale, administrative ... I save my invoices so that I can find them easily in the event of a problem. Major hard discount brands reimburse you without any problem in the event of default, even on the eve of the two-year term; but you have to find the receipt and that's harder. We tend not to take care of it when it comes to purchases of less than 50 euros I save the general conditions of sale of a website when I make a major purchase, because these conditions change frequently and in the event of a warranty or other dispute you may have difficulty finding them.Entrepreneur, Craftsman, liberal profession I am a construction worker, I make a video report when I start a construction site and when I finish it. In the event of an unjustified complaint, it is very easy for me to solve the problem. I send the two certificates to my client who can see \''in person\'' if his complaint is justifiedPhotographers, artists, authors, journalists I am a photographer and when a photo seems promising to me, I make a seal; I am thus certain that no one can steal it from me. I am an artist, a writer, I make regularly, as I progress, a seal containing my work. This is called protecting the creation path. This is extremely strong copyright protection, as counterfeiters are unable to produce such evidence. |
