-
What is Dacr?
Dacr is the modern copyright registration system for original creative work. In partner countries, Dacr is designated as the national copyright registration through framework agreements with governments.
-
What can I register?
Any original creative work. Music, writing, film, photography, illustrations, design, code, and more. If it's an original work fixed in tangible form, it can be registered.
-
How is Dacr different from just having copyright?
Copyright exists automatically when you create original work, but proving ownership, creation date, and authorship requires evidence. Dacr creates that evidence: a permanent, unalterable record of your work.
-
Can I register a video with multiple directors, writers, and contributors?
Yes. Add multiple owners and attribute every contributor on the registration record. Directors, writers, editors, cinematographers, animators, and any role that shaped the work. Ownership and authorship are recorded distinctly, both with legal weight.
-
What if my video is re-uploaded or used without permission?
Dacr AI continuously monitors for unauthorized use of your video. When a potential match is detected, DIIS produces a court-ready forensic report comparing your registration to the suspect work. Usable for takedowns, platform enforcement, counsel, and legal action.
-
Does Dacr work with streaming platforms and stock libraries?
Yes. Dacr provides verified registration data that streaming platforms, distributors, and stock libraries can use to identify your work and attribute revenue accurately. Your fingerprint identifies your video across distribution and commercial systems.
-
Can I register clips, B-roll, and production assets?
Yes. Dacr registers any original video asset. Films, short films, documentaries, music videos, social videos, commercials, animations, motion graphics, trailers, clips, B-roll, and more. Each registration is independently protected.
-
Is my Dacr registration legally valid?
Yes, worldwide. In partner countries, Dacr is the official national copyright registration. In other countries, Dacr registrations carry foreign-registration status under Berne and TRIPS. These international treaties require member countries to recognize foreign registrations without discrimination.
-
Can my Dacr registration be used in court?
Yes. In partner countries, Dacr is the national registration with full legal standing. In other countries, Dacr registrations are enforceable under Berne and TRIPS. Courts cannot discriminate against foreign works or their official registrations.
-
Do I still need to register with my country's copyright office?
In partner countries, Dacr is the national copyright registration. No additional registration needed. In other jurisdictions, local registration may offer specific additional benefits (these vary by country). Dacr provides a permanent, enforceable registration worldwide; local registration can complement it.
-
How long does my registration last?
Permanently. Registered work is stored on the Dacr Network and blockchain indefinitely. Unalterable and undeletable.
-
Can I keep my registration private?
Yes. You choose what's public and what's private. Custody and privacy controls are built into every registration.
