Marca Temporale: Who Qualifies and What You Get
Learn how to get legal proof of when a digital document was created using the Marca Temporale system.
The Marca Temporale is a digital tool used to provide legal certainty regarding the exact date and time a specific file was created or sent. It acts as a digital seal that verifies a document's existence at a specific moment.
Who it's for
This scheme is available to anyone who needs official, legally recognized proof of the date a digital document was produced. Whether you are a professional needing to protect intellectual property or a citizen submitting official files, it is for anyone requiring a way to prove exactly when a file existed.
What you get
When you use this service, you receive "data certa" (certain date). This is a legally recognized proof of the existence of a file at a specific time. It ensures that the contents of your digital document cannot be disputed regarding when they were finalized or shared.
What it costs you
Using this service is not free. You will incur a small fee for each timestamp you apply to a document. The cost is calculated per timestamp, so the total expense depends on how many individual digital marks you need to secure your files.
The catch to know
The validity of this proof is tied to the source of the service. To ensure the timestamp is legally recognized, it must be provided by an AgID-certified provider.
How to apply
- Identify the digital files that require legal proof of their creation date.
- Select a service from an AgID-certified provider.
- Follow the provider's process to apply the timestamp to your file.
- Confirm the digital mark has been applied to your document.
