Recommendations for Rightsholders' Preferences
Recommendations for Rightsholders' Preferences
Rightsholder preferences should be:
Easily discoverable, accessible and machine-readable (legal requirement);
Inseparably bound to the content (unit/media asset based approach), allowing sharing and distribution of content;
Functional when content already has been shared and distributed;
Resilient to content manipulation or alteration;
Resilient to the removal of embedded metadata (watermarks, and steganographic data)
Containing verifiable attribution through digital signatures and certificates which authenticate the declaration's source and prevent false claims;
Utilising verifiable timestamps;
Based on reliable and transparent international standards (ISO, W3C).
