1. Service Description

1.1 Peerdweb enables Users to upload a file in any format ("File") to secure a blockchain timestamp on either the Ethereum or Polygon blockchains. Our service does not store or retain copies of the uploaded Files. Once timestamped, Users can access and download a certificate of the blockchain timestamp directly within the application, which serves as proof of the File's origin and ownership.

2. User Accounts

2.2 You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account login information and for all activities that occur under your account.

• Free: £0 per month, including 5 asset protection uploads.
