Frequently asked questions
-
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.
-
What does Dacr Membership include?
Dacr Membership includes the full system for registering and protecting your work, plus a verified Membership Card, member-only events, the resource library, and access to advanced tools for managing co-owners, access, and on-behalf-of registration. Members also support creator-rights programs worldwide.
-
Do I need a membership to register my work with Dacr?
Membership is the standard way to register and protect your work with Dacr.
-
What does my membership fee support?
Membership fees fund education programs, copyright modernization initiatives, and creator programs that strengthen protections for creators worldwide. Members directly support the creators and rights communities that benefit from Dacr.
-
Can I cancel my membership at any time?
Yes. You can cancel your membership at any time. Your existing registrations remain unaffected — they stay on the record permanently, regardless of membership status.
-
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 — international treaties that 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.
