Creator rights & traceability infrastructure

Publishing should not mean surrendering your work.

NOTDATA is open-source infrastructure to prove what you created, declare AI-training rights, attach privacy-preserving trace identities and progressively validate stronger media-specific defenses and training-use audits.

Local first

Your private keys, trace secrets and original master stay on your device.

Portable proof

Evidence and Trace-ID descriptors can be verified without a NOTDATA account or hosted portal.

Honest protection

NOTDATA separates provenance, rights, trace identity, training-use detection and anti-training instead of pretending they are the same guarantee.

Protection model

Know what your protection actually means.

NOTDATA uses explicit levels instead of a vague protection score. Higher levels require stronger, media-specific evidence; unknown or untested capabilities stay visible.

P0UNPROTECTED

No NOTDATA protection evidence is available for this artifact.

Claim boundary: P0 makes no provenance, rights, binding, anti-training or traceability claim.
P1PROVENANCE

Signed provenance and artifact commitment can be independently verified.

Requires

  • signed provenance
  • artifact commitment
  • portable evidence
Claim boundary: P1 does not claim active resistance to copying or AI training.
P2RIGHTS

Verifiable machine-readable AI-training rights are attached to authenticated provenance.

Requires

  • P1
  • signed AI-training rights
  • verifiable rights history
Claim boundary: P2 makes permission state explicit; it does not technically prevent copying or training.
P3BOUND

The published artifact is durably linked to its signed provenance and rights evidence.

Requires

  • P2
  • media-specific durable binding
  • applicable robustness evidence
Claim boundary: P3 is only justified for transformations actually covered by the cited benchmark evidence.
P4DEFENDED

An active defense has passed the applicable NOTDATA benchmark for this media/profile.

Requires

  • P3
  • active defense
  • human-utility measurement
  • measured training-utility evidence
Claim boundary: P4 must not be inferred from watermark survival alone; Training Utility Gap must be measured where claimed.
P5TRACEABLE

Validated training-use tracing is available for the supported scenario in addition to lower-level protections.

Requires

  • P4
  • validated trace carrier
  • calibrated training-use detection
  • applicable removal-attack evidence
Claim boundary: A valid Trace-ID alone never establishes P5 or proves that a model trained on the work.

Inspect a Protection Report locally

Paste protection-report.json and its evidence.json. NOTDATA verifies the report commitment, its exact evidence binding and artifact binding in your browser. Nothing is uploaded.

Verify evidence locally

Paste a NOTDATA evidence bundle. Nothing is uploaded; verification runs in your browser.

Selecting the artifact also verifies its signed SHA-256 commitment. The file remains local to this browser session.

Verify a Trace-ID locally

Verify that a signed Trace-ID belongs to exact NOTDATA evidence. You may optionally select your local 32-byte campaign secret to prove that it derives this artifact Trace-ID. Evidence and secrets stay in this browser session.

The secret must be the raw 32-byte NOTDATA campaign secret. It is never required to verify the public descriptor and is not uploaded by this page.

A verified Trace-ID proves descriptor integrity and its binding to signed evidence. It does not prove that an AI model trained on the work. Artifact and training-use detection remain NOT_TESTED until a carrier and audit method pass their benchmark gates.
