A: Yes! You can use Certyfile to notarize any type of document, including printed contracts like your commercial lease agreements.

However, keep in mind that Certyfile works by certifying digital files (PDF format), ensuring their authenticity, timestamp, and immutability. If your contract is on paper, you would first need to scan and upload it as a PDF before certifying it.

Let us know if you have any other questions!

Best regards,

A: Hi,

Yes! Certyfile offers "API integration" options that allow you to seamlessly integrate our blockchain-based document certification into your existing platform, including legal document management systems. And YES: we have a plan for unlimited users, but out of this deal.

If you're interested in API-integrations or unlimited users plan, we’d be happy to discuss your specific requirements and provide details about them. Feel free to contact us at info@certyfile.com, and our team will assist you in finding the best integration solution.

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Best regards,

Q: Initial Verification

For the initial verification, if I use my personal ID, is this the one that will show in the final uploaded file verification?

Use case - our organisation runs coaching programs. We issue multi-page PDF certifications. We want to upload these to blockchain via Certyfile so that it can be verified as authentic and issued by our organisation.

How do I go about this?

Also, if for any reason Certyfile ceases to exist, what happens to the docs already uploaded?

Thanks and all the best!

A: Dear customer,

Thank you for reaching out and for your interest in using Certyfile for your organization’s certification process! I’m happy to address your questions in detail:

1. Does the initial ID used for verification appear in the final uploaded file on the blockchain?
No, the personal ID used for your account's initial verification is not linked to or displayed on the uploaded files or blockchain records. The verification process is simply to authenticate your account and provide an added layer of security. The blockchain record will reflect the authenticity and integrity of the uploaded documents, ensuring they are verifiable as issued by your organization.

In your case, Certyfile is ideal for uploading and certifying your multi-page PDF certifications for coaching programs. The process ensures that recipients and third parties can easily verify the authenticity of the certificates through the blockchain without exposing personal or private details about the uploader.

2. What happens to documents if Certyfile ceases to exist?
All documents registered via Certyfile are permanently recorded on public blockchains. This means the integrity and authenticity of these records are independent of Certyfile’s platform. Even in the unlikely event that Certyfile ceases operations, the blockchain remains operational and accessible for verifying your documents. You and your certificate holders can continue using blockchain explorers or compatible third-party tools to verify the records.

If you have further questions or need assistance setting up your account or workflows, feel free to contact us. We’re here to help!

Best regards,

A: Hi Marcus,

Thank you for your question! Certyfile does include advanced security features for PDF documents, but let me clarify the specific functionalities:

1. Blockchain Certification: Certyfile ensures that any document shared through our platform is certified on the blockchain, providing immutable proof of authenticity and timestamping.

2. Tracking and Audit Trail: Certyfile provides tracking of document activity, so you can see when the document is accessed, viewed, or signed.

3. Copy and Download Protection: While Certyfile supports secure sharing, it does not currently offer built-in DRM (Digital Rights Management) features such as disabling copying or downloading of the shared document. Instead, the focus is on verifying and certifying documents' integrity and authenticity.

If your use case requires additional protection like disabling copying or downloading, we recommend complementing Certyfile with specialized DRM tools for maximum security.

Let us know if you'd like more details or a demo of how Certyfile can fit your specific needs.

Kind regards,
