DownloadTracer® can provide you with the information you need to identify and prosecute the download pirates.
Our advanced steganography system imprints in every frame of your film the encrypted username and download date/time information. Our systems can still retrieve this information even if the film has been converted between various film formats (wmv-avi, wmv-mpeg, wmv- rm etc.) and in many cases even a single frame-grab, in several formats, is sufficient for us to retrieve the information you need. This information, combined with the membership details you hold on your clients enables you to uniquely identify the culprit whilst not providing any usable or identifiable information to any third party should anyone manage to decode the film. Because DownloadTracer® never has access to the membership details that only you hold on your clients there are no problems with contravening your parent country's data protection legislation. By making it a contractual term of membership that file is not to be shared, loaned, gifted, duplicated or published in any way or form on penalty of prosecution for breach of the contract, it is now possible to sue the original downloader of the film without having to prove that they actually uploaded it to the free server. It is in the 'wild' so ipso facto they must have shared it. This is approach of using contract law is far easier to do than prosecuting them for breach of copyright (the rights of which vary between countries). We provide several levels of our confidential encoding/decoding service, details of which will be provided only to film producers and web site owners upon request and proof of bona-fides. The services can be summarised as:
