SECURITY & INTEGRITY

How the record is protected

This page explains what protects a record today, what “verified” means, and what stronger guarantees are on the roadmap.


What's live today

Every source document carries recorded provenance, and every record passes a verifier review before publication.

Source provenance

Each document records where it came from and when: its origin, extraction path, source or registration date, the authority level of the source, and a supersedes chain when a newer document replaces an older one. Every fact is traceable to a dated source.

What "verified" means

"Verified" is not a legal endorsement of ownership. It means the record has passed the review workflow (see Verification); a credibility rating across scope, documentary support, and recency is planned. It tells you how well-evidenced and current the data is — not that a court has ruled on it.

Submission integrity — today and planned

Today, a submission's authenticity rests on credentialed access and verifier review. Planned work binds each proof document to its hash and adds a cryptographic signature over the whole bundle and a manifest, so a submission's authenticity and completeness can be verified end to end.

Data-protection safeguards

Integrity also means protecting the personal data inside a record. Eurcor minimises the personal data it exposes and limits retention in line with the GDPR (Art. 5), so integrity never comes at the cost of over-exposure. See Access & privacy.

Roadmap to verifiable provenance

The direction of travel is from "the registry vouches for the record" toward "you can verify a whole record's provenance and signature offline." These stronger cryptographic guarantees are planned.

Informational, not legal advice

This page describes Eurcor's integrity measures where they overlap data-protection law; it is not legal advice. See Legal framework for the governing instruments.
