Secure your writings against plagiarism with Copyright.eu
Dated evidence for your book or manuscript
All inclusive – No subscription
Are you the author of a book or an autobiography?
Your book is slowly evolving into a more advanced form, yet instead of celebrating success, a concern persists: how to protect yourself from possible plagiarism?
Indeed, plagiarism is not uncommon in the book world. Whole passages obviously reproduced, sentences minimally altered, just a few words or phrases changed – could a writer imagine a greater nightmare? One thing could be worse: that the thief himself disputes your authorship, forbidding you to exploit your work.
Fortunately, there is a way to protect yourself from such unpleasant surprises – you should plan to obtain proof that you are the author!
In addition, you can date not only your finished literary work (mandatory deposit with the BNF), but also the manuscript, chapters of your choice, and even the scripts and stories of your novel.
The same applies to autobiographical novels, for instance. Do not let anyone « steal » your life.
Copyright for books and texts. Protecting your writings has never been easier.
How to protect your books, stories and scripts as effectively as possible?
Copyright generally protects original works without registration when the legal requirements are met. Retaining dated evidence can help you document the existence and content of your manuscript, draft or book before sharing or publishing it.
Upload the relevant files to Copyright.eu to obtain a dated certificate. You may document successive versions with the additional-deposit features available for Standard and Certified offers. The deposit does not itself decide ownership or resolve a dispute.
Why choose Copyright.eu for online book protection?
Choose the service that fits your work:
- Express: a qualified timestamp, without file storage.
- Standard: secure retention of up to 5 files of 1 GB each, with a certificate bearing the Datasure qualified electronic seal and a non-disclosure agreement.
- Certified: additional depositor identity verification and electronic signature, with the guarantee described in the contractual terms.
Compare current offers and prices. Keep your original files and certificate.
The benefits of copyright law protection:
A qualified electronic timestamp issued in one EU Member State is recognised in all EU Member States under eIDAS. Outside the EU, the effect of evidence depends on applicable law. A deposit does not itself establish copyright ownership.
