How does it work?

It’s easier than counting up to 3:

  1. you create the rights declaration for your content
  2. you send it to the ARDI service
  3. we will take care of everything else:
    • we assign a unique persistent identifier to your rights declaration. ARDI is
    • we make your rights declaration web resolvable
    • we create a web page for your rights declaration
    • we keep track of any other rights declaration on your content
    • we send your data to the Copyright Hub, so that web users who find your content immediately get info about its copyright
    • we make you part of the magic

    4. In practice...

    • upload an XML file with your rights declaration here
    • or send us your rights declaration through ARDI API
    • get your ARDI ID
    • start use ARDI to communicate the copyright of your works to the Internet world
ARDI service technical documentation is publicly available here
