An IP deposit is a solution recognised in courts that allows software publishers, digital innovators and database owners to provide an unforgeable proof of date for their creation.
In a copyright dispute or infringement action, the author of the creation will have to prove to the court that he or she was the first to come up with the idea. A deposit will allow the author(s) of the digital work to provide an unforgeable proof of date to their rights and demonstrate that they have prior rights to their creation.

Vaultinum’s simple, streamlined online platform allows clients to manage their deposited digital asset portfolio and consult their history at any time

With 45 years of legal and IT expertise, you can rest assured that your data is safely encrypted and stored on our Swiss servers, using the AES 256 encryption algorithm.
This option establishes the list of what has been deposited, as well as a calculation of the individual electronic fingerprints (hash) of each file included in the deposit.
Much like human fingerprints, the hash is a unique identifier for digital files. By using the hash function, Vaultinum ensures the data has not been corrupted or changed since the initial deposit.
The verified deposit allows the beneficiary of an escrow contract to ensure that what is in the file is in line with what was agreed in the contract.
This option offers a higher level of assurance to ensure that the beneficiary would indeed be able to successfully use the software in the event of supplier failure.
This process involves a Vaultinum agent running the software in the presence of the beneficiary and the software supplier to check whether the deposited source code is functional and that all elements are sufficiently and coherently documented to enable independent use.
Still unsure about how to protect your software copyright with a deposit? Our team of legal and IT experts are always happy to talk you through the best option for you and your business needs.
