What is copyright?
Copyright is a legal concept that provides exclusive rights to creators for their original works of authorship, such as literary, dramatic, musical, artistic, and certain other intellectual works.

Protecting your copyright
Proving that you are the original creator of a work can be challenging and can come down to"your word against theirs." Without the proper and necessary protection, your work could end up generating money for someone else. That's why we're introducing UMW Protect to a new feature we've added to UMW Recordings, Inc that makes it easy to register your copyright.

How does it work?
As soon as you upload your files to our platform, an indisputable record is created. Blockchain technology establishes a date and time record of your upload and ensures that your record cannot be altered or tampered with.
You will receive the copyright registration certificate immediately in your email, you can download it in PDF format, which is a digital proof according to copyright law, designs, among others.
