Welcome to Patamu.com!

Patamu.com is owned by Innovaetica S.r.l.

Description of the Service
Patamu.com is a web platform that allows you to deposit and protect works in digital format protected by authors rights, and to which the holders of such rights may associate licenses for use and distribution (as an example, and not exhaustively: Creative Commons licenses, Copyright, etc.). Protection takes place by means of timestamping, an IT procedure by means of which a temporal reference, which can be opposed to third parties [1], is attributed to an IT document. At the moment a work is deposited online, Patamu.com releases: * a certificate of authorship that contains the personal data of the author as indicated at the time of deposit, together with some identification data of the work being deposited, including the distribution license chosen at the time of filing/deposit and a unique Patamu.com license number; * an archive protected by the password chosen at the time of deposit, containing the original work and the declaration of authorship referred to in the previous point; * a timestamp, that has a legal validity of 20 years, which, accompanied by the archive containing the original work referred to in the previous point, certifies with certainty of date and time, the moment the work was filed/deposited on Patamu.com.
