The terms, stated plainly.

What you are using

The site and the downloadable offline verifier are provided free of charge by Attested Intelligence Holdings LLC. Sealing and verifying run in your browser; your content and your signing key never leave your device, as described on the privacy page. There is no account, no subscription, and no paid tier.

What a passing check does and does not establish

Under the record's key, a passing check shows the sealed data is unaltered since sealing and matches the record; keep the key or hash you got at sealing. It does not prove the contents are true or who sealed them. When the record carries a content-bound server timestamp that verifies, the sealed content (its hash) is bound to a time reported by VerifyBundle's own service. Interpreting that as existence by that time requires trusting the service's clock and signing key. It is not an accredited timestamping authority, and the timestamp does not cover the title, filename, private fields or key. Otherwise the sealing time is self-reported by the device that sealed it. The full boundary is stated on the about page, and the exact verification rules are in the published specification.

• A record is not notarization and is not a legal opinion.
• Whether a record is persuasive or decisive in any given dispute is a determination for the relevant tribunal and your own counsel in your jurisdiction. We make no representation about that outcome.
• If you may need to rely on a record later, retain the record itself and, for a file record, the original file. A record referencing a file you no longer hold proves nothing about content you cannot produce.

Your responsibilities

• You are responsible for the content you seal, for complying with the laws that apply to you, and for keeping the records and files you may later need.
• Do not misrepresent what a verification result means. A VERIFIED verdict speaks to the integrity of the sealed bytes under the record's key. It never speaks to the truth of the content; it speaks to the match to an expected key only when you pinned that key through a trusted channel. Connecting a key to a person requires separate identity evidence. A verified content-bound timestamp binds the content to the service's reported time, subject to trust in its clock and signing key.
• The tool must not be used to harass, defraud, or mislead, or in any unlawful way. We may withhold or discontinue the hosted service at any time; records you already hold remain verifiable offline.

Provided as is; limitation of liability

The site, the offline verifier, the specification, and the conformance vectors are provided AS IS and AS AVAILABLE, without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Attested Intelligence Holdings LLC is not liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from use of the tool or reliance on a record, including loss of data, loss of a record or its original file, or the outcome of any dispute. You are responsible for the keys, records, and content you handle.

The specification and conformance vectors remain available to download for inspection. No separate reuse or redistribution license has been issued for those materials, and the source repository remains private. Licenses for third-party components bundled in verifier.html are listed in the third-party notices. Those notices do not grant rights to the VerifyBundle source, specification, or conformance vectors.

Changes to these terms

We may revise these terms; the current version is always at this address, and the date below states when it last changed. Continued use of the site after a change means you accept the revised terms. Records you sealed before a change remain verifiable exactly as before: verification is offline math over the record, and no change to this page can alter it.
