ProofSnap captures any web page as court-ready digital evidence in Gibraltar in 41 seconds. Gibraltar kept Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 as domestic law after leaving the EU, so in 2026 Article 41(2) still applies: a qualified electronic time stamp is presumed accurate as to its date and time and as to the integrity of the data bound to it.
Gibraltar is the rare common law jurisdiction where a timestamp carries a statutory presumption. Gibraltar left the EU with the United Kingdom, but it kept Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 in force as Gibraltar domestic law, in the version in force from 1 January 2021, saved and adapted by the Electronic Identification and Trust Services for Electronic Transactions (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 under the Electronic Commerce Act 2001. Article 41(2) survives intact: a qualified electronic time stamp shall enjoy the presumption of the accuracy of the date and the time it indicates and the integrity of the data to which the date and time are bound. Article 24A is the bridge for a foreign timestamp. It lists Article 41(2) among the provisions where something qualified under equivalent EU law counts as qualified in Gibraltar. So a qualified timestamp from an EU qualified trust service provider on the EU Trusted List carries the presumption before a Gibraltar court. It does so as a matter of Gibraltar law, not because EU law applies here. The Gibraltar Regulatory Authority is the supervisory body for trust services. The presumption goes to the time and the integrity of the data, not to the truth of what the page said, so the court still weighs the evidence. What it removes is the argument about when the capture was made and whether it changed afterwards.
ProofSnap is a Chrome & Edge extension that captures web pages as court-admissible evidence in 41 seconds. Three capture options: single page, multi-tab browsing session (with per-tab forensic packages), or signed video proof (Auto, Manual, or Session-wide screen recording). Every capture includes a SHA-256 cryptographic hash, RSA-4096 digital signature, Bitcoin blockchain timestamp via OpenTimestamps, and a Provenance Certificate with 8 integrity checks for deepfake detection. Our eIDAS qualified timestamps, available on Enterprise plans, are issued by Disig a.s., a Qualified Trust Service Provider on the EU Trusted List.
Procedure here follows the English model. The Civil Procedure Rules 1998 apply in Gibraltar with local modifications under the Supreme Court Rules 2000, so CPR 32.19 governs the first fight you will have about a screenshot: the authenticity of a disclosed document is deemed admitted unless the other side serves a notice to prove it at trial. Serve that notice on a bare screenshot and the party relying on it has to call someone to prove it. Serve it on a signed, hashed, qualified-timestamped package and the proof is already in the file. Within the Supreme Court most smaller disputes run on the small claims track up to £10,000 or the fast track up to £15,000. Beyond it sit the Employment Tribunal, on a three-month clock, and the Gambling Commissioner, who will consider a player complaint once the operator has had two weeks to resolve it and has not. The same signed package supports a gambling operator complaint, a chat thread you need to exhibit to a witness statement or a law firm's evidence file. Pricing starts at $8.99/month (approx. £6.70) with a 7-day free trial that requires a credit card. Used by barristers, solicitors, STR hosts, copyright enforcement firms and compliance teams in 23 countries.

United States courts rejected screenshot evidence in United States v. Vayner, Griffin v. State and Serrano v. Cruz-Angeles. The same authentication gap arises in Gibraltar.
File timestamps can be changed in seconds. Courts know this. Without a blockchain or eIDAS-qualified timestamp, you can't prove when you captured it.
Any screenshot can be edited in 10 seconds with AI. On 9 September 2025 the Superior Court of California, County of Alameda, dismissed Mendones v. Cushman & Wakefield with prejudice as a terminating sanction, after finding that video exhibits had been generated with AI. Without a SHA-256 hash, there is no way to prove yours is real.
Who captured it? When? On what device? How was it stored? Screenshots don't answer any of these questions. Under CPR 32.19 the other side can serve a notice to prove, and then a bare screenshot has to be authenticated by a witness.

Built for how disputes start in Gibraltar
Gibraltar is small, its procedure follows England, and its economy runs largely online. Industry estimates published in 2025 and 2026 put gaming alone at a fifth to a third of GDP, with more than 3,200 people employed in it, so a large share of local disputes starts on a platform, a terms page or a chat rather than on paper. Every forum here works from documents filed in advance, and every one of them will let the other side put you to proof of what you captured. ProofSnap seals it in seconds, with a signed PDF, a SHA-256 hash and an eIDAS qualified timestamp that holds up when the other side says "that screenshot is fake".
A claim for unfair dismissal has to reach the Gibraltar Employment Tribunal within three months of the effective date of termination, in practice three months less a day, and the employee normally needs a year of continuous employment to bring one at all. A late claim is fatal unless it was not reasonably practicable to present it in time, and not knowing the law does not count. What decides these cases is the written record: the rota, the internal announcement, the manager's message, the HR portal entry. Access to company systems is usually cut off on the day you leave, so capture what you need before the account is deactivated.
Gibraltar has not adopted the English Defamation Act 2013. The Defamation Act 1960 still governs, the limitation period is six years under section 8 of the Limitation Act 1960, there is no statutory serious harm threshold, and a party can still elect trial by jury, as the Supreme Court confirmed in Allen and Wood v Panorama Ltd [2021] GSC 11. Because damages turn on how far the words travelled, the extent of publication is itself a fact you have to prove: in Picardo v Rosety Fernandez de Castro [2022] GSC 20 the court estimated the Gibraltar readership of a tweet from the surrounding quote tweets. Reach metrics change hourly, so capture the post, the replies and the counters on the day.
Section 97B of the Crimes Act 2011, inserted by the Crimes (Amendment) Act 2017, makes it an offence to disclose a private sexual photograph or film without the consent of the person who appears in it and with the intention of causing that person distress. It carries up to two years on indictment, or on summary conviction twelve months and a fine at level 5 on the standard scale. A prosecution depends on what can be shown to have been posted and sent. Reporting the account, or getting it suspended, removes the material and your proof of it at the same time, so capture the post, the profile and the message thread before you report to the Royal Gibraltar Police.
Gibraltar has no financial services ombudsman, and the Gibraltar Financial Services Commission says plainly that it is not an arbitrator or a dispute resolution body. A disputed authorised push payment claim therefore ends in the Supreme Court rather than in a free scheme, which makes the quality of your evidence the whole of the case. GBC News reported Royal Gibraltar Police figures on 21 May 2026 showing fraud losses of £2.6 million already that year, with 87 per cent linked directly to cyber crime. Capture the site, the payment page, the dashboard and the chat while the account is still live, then report to the Economic Crime Unit.
The Gambling Act 2025 commenced on 1 October 2025 with a six-month transition, replacing the twenty-year-old 2005 Act. It gives the Gambling Division wider powers to inspect, to approve senior managers and to fine. What has not changed is that a player complaint is decided on documents: the terms as they read on the day you accepted them, the bet history, the balance and the support chat. Operators edit terms pages and close accounts without notice, so seal those before you complain rather than after. The full complaint route and its two deadlines are set out below.
The small claims track in the Supreme Court handles claims up to £10,000, and the fast track runs from there to £15,000. Small claims are designed to be run without a lawyer, which means you are the one who has to satisfy the court that the listing, the invoice page or the chat you are relying on is what you say it is. A ProofSnap package answers that on its face: hashes, an RSA-4096 signed manifest, a chain of custody and a verification script the other side can run, rather than a picture you are asking the judge to take on trust.
Gaming disputes
Gibraltar is one of the two jurisdictions that licensed the modern online betting industry, and it is still where a large part of it sits. Industry estimates published in 2025 and 2026 put the gaming sector at between a fifth and a third of Gibraltar's GDP, with more than 3,200 people employed in it, and the members of the Gibraltar Betting and Gaming Association include Bet365, Betfair, Ladbrokes and William Hill. If you are in a dispute with a UK-facing bookmaker or casino, there is a good chance the licence, the servers and the compliance team are in Gibraltar even when the website is not.
Two weeks, then the Commissioner
Complain to the operator first. Expect an acknowledgement in two to three working days and an explanation within a week. If you are still dissatisfied after two weeks, the Gambling Commissioner will consider it on the basis of the Complaint Resolution Request Form and the evidence you attach.
Where you played decides who hears it
The Commissioner's own guidance is explicit: for remote gambling licensed in both Gibraltar and the UK, where the gambling took place in the UK after 1 November 2014, the complaint can be referred to Gibraltar only with the operator's agreement. Otherwise it runs through the UK ADR procedure instead.
Two years, and then nothing
Complaints older than two years are not investigated except in exceptional circumstances. In practice the account, the bet history and the terms page you would rely on are gone long before that, because operators archive closed accounts and edit terms without notice.
The Commissioner asks complainants to keep the emails, the screenshots and the game records, and to set out the facts with full candour rather than selectively. That is exactly the point where a screenshot is weakest: it shows what you say the page said, on a date you say it said it, with nothing behind either claim. Capture the bonus or withdrawal terms as they read on the day you accepted them, the bet and transaction history, the balance, the verification requests and the closure notice, and the file answers both questions on its face.
The pressure on this sector is real and current: at the Autumn Budget 2025 the UK announced that Remote Gaming Duty would rise from 21 per cent to 40 per cent from 1 April 2026, and because the duty follows the customer rather than the operator, it lands on Gibraltar-licensed, UK-facing businesses. Restructurings and account migrations are the moments when player records move or disappear.

Guides for Gibraltar matters
Each guide covers what the decision-maker is actually weighing, and what to capture first.
Two weeks with the operator, then the Commissioner. Preserve the terms, the bet history and the balance first.
WhatsApp, Telegram, Signal and Messenger threads, rendered as a transcript you can exhibit to a witness statement.
Headers and attachments certified, which is what an invoice redirection fraud turns on.
What to capture on a defamation or harassment matter, including the reach metrics that drive damages.
What Article 41 actually presumes, what it does not, and how a court checks the token offline.
How the package is exhibited, what survives a notice to prove under CPR 32.19, and whitelabel PDFs.
"For the purposes of Articles 25(2), 27, 35(2), 37, 41(2) and 43(2) ... anything which is not qualified under this Regulation is to be treated as qualified if it is qualified under the equivalent EU law."
The order matters, because a Gibraltar case is built on documents disclosed long before trial, and because the online record you are relying on can be edited or deleted at any point in between.
Gibraltar is a separate jurisdiction from England and Wales, with its own statutes and its own Supreme Court, so treat English guidance as persuasive rather than binding. For neighbouring jurisdictions, see ProofSnap in the United Kingdom, Spain or Malta.

Independent legal opinion · 21 April 2026
The opinion was prepared by SEDLAKOVA LEGAL s.r.o. (Brno, Czech Bar Association, Company ID 05669871) under EU law (Regulation (EU) No 910/2014, eIDAS) with reference to Czech civil procedure. Cross-references to the US Federal Rules of Evidence (FRE 901, 902(13)-(14), proposed FRE 707) and the English Civil Procedure Rules (CPR 32, 35) were added by the ProofSnap team to orient common-law readers.
FRE 901 · FRE 902(13)-(14) · CPR 32 · eIDAS Art. 41
ProofSnap outputs are usable as means of evidence in civil, criminal and administrative proceedings. Authentication is satisfied under FRE 901/902 in the US and CPR 32 in England and Wales, and evidence is freely evaluated in EU systems, reinforced by US case law (Vayner, Lorraine v. Markel, Mendones).
Notarial deed · Sworn affidavit
The opinion describes ProofSnap as "a suitable and economical alternative" to notarial certification of the state of a website. Court-reporter affidavits and notarial deeds (US $200-500, UK £200-800) require waiting time during which content can disappear; ProofSnap captures immediately with cryptographic integrity.
eIDAS Art. 41(2) · Regulation (EU) No 910/2014
The qualified eIDAS timestamp issued by Disig a.s., a Qualified Trust Service Provider on the EU Trusted List, carries the statutory presumption of accuracy of date, time and data integrity, putting the burden on the opposing party to prove otherwise to the opposing party, directly across all 27 EU Member States.
“The outputs of the ProofSnap service are, from the perspective of Czech procedural law and the EU legal framework, generally usable as means of evidence in any type of proceedings.”
Conclusion of the legal opinion, SEDLAKOVA LEGAL s.r.o., 21 April 2026
The opinion is publicly accessible and requires no registration. The conclusions express the legal view of the author and do not constitute binding legal advice.
ProofSnap's eIDAS qualified timestamps shift the legal burden. Gibraltar kept Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 as domestic law after EU exit, so Article 41 still applies here. Under Article 41 your evidence is legally presumed accurate as to its time and integrity, and the opposing party must prove otherwise.
Article 41(1): "An electronic time stamp shall not be denied legal effect and admissibility as evidence in legal proceedings solely on the grounds that it is in an electronic form or that it does not meet the requirements of the qualified electronic time stamp."
Article 41(2): "A qualified electronic time stamp shall enjoy the presumption of the accuracy of the date and the time it indicates and the integrity of the data to which the date and time are bound."

Gibraltar sits in an unusual and useful position. It is a common law jurisdiction whose procedure follows England, yet it kept the eIDAS Regulation as domestic law when it left the Union with the United Kingdom. So you get an English-style trial with a civil-law style presumption attached to the timestamp, and the Gibraltar Regulatory Authority as the supervisory body for trust services.
Article 41 applies as retained Gibraltar law
A qualified electronic time stamp enjoys the presumption of the accuracy of the date and the time it indicates and the integrity of the data to which the date and time are bound. That provision is in force here as retained domestic law, and a timestamp issued by Disig a.s., a Qualified Trust Service Provider on the EU Trusted List, is treated as qualified in Gibraltar under Article 24A, which names Article 41(2) among the provisions it covers.
CPR 32.19, the notice to prove
The English Civil Procedure Rules apply in Gibraltar with local modifications under the Supreme Court Rules 2000. Under CPR 32.19 the authenticity of a disclosed document is deemed admitted unless the other side serves a notice to prove it, which must be served by the latest date for serving witness statements or within seven days of disclosure, whichever is later. Once that notice is served, the burden of proving authenticity sits with the party relying on the document. A signed and timestamped package answers it from the file itself, instead of putting a witness in the box to say the screenshot is genuine.
A small jurisdiction with a large online economy
Industry estimates published in 2025 and 2026 put gaming at a fifth to a third of Gibraltar's GDP, employing more than 3,200 people, and financial services add another layer of regulated online activity. That means an unusual share of disputes here are about what a website, a terms page or a platform account said on a particular day.
Deadlines run in both directions
Three months less a day to file an unfair dismissal claim. Two weeks before a gambling complaint can go to the Commissioner, and a two-year outer limit beyond which it will generally not be looked at. Six years for defamation, which is the opposite problem: your evidence has to stay verifiable for that whole period.
What the presumption does and does not do: it goes to the accuracy of the time and the integrity of the data, not to admissibility in the round or to the truth of what the page said. A Gibraltar court still weighs the evidence. What the timestamp removes is the argument about when the capture was made and whether it changed afterwards, which in practice is the argument you would otherwise be having.

Regular screenshots can be challenged in court because they carry no proof of when they were taken or whether they have been altered. In Gibraltar two rules decide what happens next. Procedurally, CPR 32.19 applies through the Supreme Court Rules 2000: the authenticity of a disclosed document is deemed admitted unless the other side serves a notice to prove it, and once that notice is served a bare screenshot needs a witness. Substantively, Gibraltar kept Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 as domestic law, so under Article 41(2) a qualified electronic time stamp enjoys the presumption of the accuracy of the date and the time it indicates and the integrity of the data to which the date and time are bound, and Article 24A treats a time stamp qualified under equivalent EU law as qualified here.
ProofSnap addresses this by creating a forensic evidence package containing a SHA-256 hash proving the content has not been modified, an RSA-4096 digital signature for authenticity, an eIDAS qualified timestamp issued by Disig a.s., a Qualified Trust Service Provider on the EU Trusted List, a Bitcoin blockchain anchor, and full metadata including the URL and the capture time in UTC. The presumption goes to the time and the integrity of the data rather than to admissibility in the round or to the truth of what the page said, so a court or an adjudicator still weighs the evidence. What it removes is the argument about when the capture was made and whether it changed afterwards.
ProofSnap uses three layers of cryptographic protection:
Together, these mechanisms create a chain of integrity that proves the evidence is authentic, unaltered, and that it was captured at a specific point in time.
Regulation (EU) 2024/1183, known as eIDAS 2, will be fully rolled out by the end of 2026, establishing stricter standards for electronic identification, digital signatures, and qualified electronic timestamps across all EU member states.
Under Article 41(2), a qualified electronic time stamp shall enjoy the presumption of the accuracy of the date and the time it indicates and the integrity of the data to which the date and time are bound. In Gibraltar the cross-border effect rests on Article 24A, which lists Article 41(2) among the provisions for which anything qualified under equivalent EU law is treated as qualified. The presumption goes to the time and the integrity, not to the truth of what the page said, so a Gibraltar court still weighs the evidence itself.
ProofSnap's cryptographic proofs align with eIDAS 2 requirements: SHA-256 hashing for data integrity, RSA-4096 digital signatures for authenticity, and blockchain timestamps via OpenTimestamps for independent time verification. This makes ProofSnap evidence packages suitable for legal proceedings in Gibraltar and across the EU.
Yes, and not because EU law applies in Gibraltar. Gibraltar retained Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 as domestic law when it left the Union with the United Kingdom, in the version in force from 1 January 2021. Article 41(2) provides that "a qualified electronic time stamp shall enjoy the presumption of the accuracy of the date and the time it indicates and the integrity of the data to which the date and time are bound". A party who wants to dispute when your capture was made, or whether it changed afterwards, has to displace that presumption with evidence.
Article 41(1) adds that an electronic time stamp cannot be denied legal effect and admissibility as evidence in legal proceedings solely because it is electronic or because it does not meet the requirements of a qualified time stamp. Because our timestamps are issued by an EU qualified trust service provider, the operative provision is Article 24A, which lists Article 41(2) among those for which something qualified under equivalent EU law is treated as qualified in Gibraltar. The Gibraltar Regulatory Authority is the supervisory body for trust services. The presumption covers the time and the integrity of the file, never the truth of the content.
Three months, and in practice three months less a day. A claim form has to reach the Gibraltar Employment Tribunal within three months of the effective date of termination, and under section 60(1)(b) of the Employment Act an employee normally needs at least a year of continuous employment to bring an unfair dismissal claim at all, though dismissals for automatically unfair reasons need no qualifying period. A late claim is almost always fatal, because the tribunal will only extend where it was not reasonably practicable to present it in time, and not knowing the law does not qualify.
Employer systems are usually locked on the day of dismissal, so the rota, the internal message thread, the HR portal and the manager's post are often gone before you file. Capture them the same day, and exhibit the package to your witness statement rather than a bare screenshot.
Complain to the operator first. The Gambling Division expects the operator to acknowledge you within two to three working days and to explain the position, or give you a realistic timeline, within a week. If you are still dissatisfied two weeks after raising it, you can put the matter to the Gambling Commissioner on the Complaint Resolution Request Form. One trap: where the gambling took place in the UK after 1 November 2014 and the operator holds both a UK and a Gibraltar licence, the Commissioner can take it on only with the operator's agreement, and otherwise it goes through the UK ADR route.
What decides the outcome is what you can produce. The Commissioner's guidance asks complainants to keep the emails, screenshots and game records and to set out the facts with full candour, and warns that complaints older than two years are generally not investigated. Capture the bonus or withdrawal terms as they read on the day you accepted them, the bet and transaction history, the balance, the support chat, the verification requests and any closure notice. Operators edit terms pages and close accounts, which is exactly when the proof disappears, so seal each of those before you escalate rather than after.
Forensic mode is an optional deeper capture mode included in the Professional, Enterprise and Company plans (not in Essential or the SnapPacks).
It adds a complete archive of the page's network layer: every HTTP request and response (network.har), a WARC copy of the page, all loaded resources, and the full TLS certificate chain. To capture that it attaches the debugger (the browser shows a "being debugged" banner).
Every one of those files is hashed into the RSA-4096 signed manifest, so the OpenTimestamps blockchain anchor and the eIDAS qualified timestamp cover the network archive exactly as they cover the screenshot.
