Protection
Images within this
site have been registered with an international registration authority
approved by the International Standards Organisation.
They are issued with a unique licence plate number which is encoded into
the image into a SPIFF format (ISO JPEG 10918-3 standard). It is an offence
under International Law to alter the contents of a registered SPIFF file.

Full screen and
larger images are further protected by digital fingerprinting. This uses
a technology developed by IBM and Datamark.
Whenever an image is downloaded a visible watermark indicates to whom
it was transmitted and when. The digital fingerprint uniquely identifies
this image with download details. The digital fingerprint is invisible
to the human eye but can be detected by a program and the resulting number
can track the source of the copying. It is extremely robust and can withstand
modifications such as blurring or sharpening the image, and printing out
and re-scanning.
