ArtistScope DRM - Hosted DRM Service
The Hosted DRM Service provides users a means of using
ArtistScope DRM to manage their document distribution without
having to purchase the DRM Portal for installation on their web site. For
licensed users of CopySafe PDF Protector the DRM Service is free. For those
who do not want to purchase a license for the CopySafe PDF Protector because
they either have no budget or their project is very short term, the Hosted
DRM Service can be rented by the month or by usage.
Option A: high volume, business use - Paying a fixed rental fee
per month is ideal for high-volume situations, such as
distributing an e-book and sending out company-wide memos. Keep
your costs under control with the peace of mind of a fixed
monthly fee and no extra costs, regardless of volume.
Option B: low volume, casual use - Paying per document validation
is the perfect plan for those distributing documents to a small
number of users. Only pay for what you use.
No software needs to be
installed. All that is required is for the hosting fee to paid
12 months in advance for your account to be set up and active
within 24-48 hours depending on the account realm that you
nominate.
DRM Hosting Fees
The initial set up fee applies once only. Then you pay for
your hosting in advance, paying by the month or by purchasing a number of
credits for validations. Paying monthly is more economical for
high volume distribution because it includes unlimited
validations, whereas paying by validations enables you to
pay only for what you use.

Validations
"Validations" are the hits on our database requesting
authorization to access a protected document or web page. Each
page or document requested equals one hit. If a document is
accessed and there is a print limit on the document then the
hits recorded may amount to two.
To enable authors to check their pages and update them
regularly, no hits are recorded when the page is accessed
while logged in using the author's account.
Storage limits
There is no storage limit for any of the account types. Every
user is entitled to upload as many documents and create as
many web pages as they need.
Administration and Distribution
