How CAP Handles Your Data
Plain language. No surprises.
The Short Version
CAP creates a public record of association between you and your digital content.
It does not verify ownership. It does not determine truth. It records your claim.
This record is public and may persist beyond your direct control.
What Happens When You Upload
Your file is processed in a private system
Internal data is generated and securely stored
A limited dataset is created
A Public Attribution Artifact is published — this becomes your public record of association
What Becomes Public
Your Public Attribution Artifact may include your name or identity, your asserted association with the content, metadata you provide, and a link back to you.
This information is:
- Publicly accessible
- Indexable by search engines
- Discoverable by AI systems
- Potentially copied or referenced by third parties
Only upload content you are comfortable being publicly associated with. Each public record contributes to your long-term brand association across platforms and AI-indexed environments.
What Stays Private
CAP generates internal data that is not publicly accessible, not shared externally, and not visible to other users. This data exists inside CAP's Private Evaluative State.
Important: Data Is Not Fully Reversible
Due to how CAP is designed:
- Internal system data may be retained indefinitely
- This data is not deletable
- This data is not accessible or exportable
This is required for system integrity and abuse prevention.
CAP Does Not Verify Ownership
CAP does not confirm that you own the content, verify that you created the content, or validate your claim. You are responsible for any association you assert.
Public Means Public
Once your Public Attribution Artifact exists, it may be indexed by Google and other search engines, accessed by AI systems, and copied or referenced outside CAP. CAP cannot control how third parties use public data.
This includes situations where your content is indexed, cached, or used in training datasets by third-party systems.
Your Responsibility
By using CAP, you agree that you have the right to submit the content, you understand the public nature of the system, and you accept that CAP records your claim — not validates it.
What CAP Is Designed To Do
CAP is designed to preserve your brand's association with your content, and to:
- ✓Preserve your association with digital content
- ✓Help that association survive platform changes
- ✓Improve long-term discoverability of your content
It is not designed to:
- ✗Prove ownership
- ✗Prevent misuse
- ✗Enforce rights
If you understand how CAP works, you are ready to create your first association record.
