Also available for Microsoft Edge · The only extension with legally binding EU timestamps in all 27 member states
In Ireland the legal position on captured web evidence is as simple as it gets anywhere. Ireland is an EU member state, so eIDAS applies directly, with no retained-law or recognition argument to make. Under Article 41(2) a qualified electronic time stamp enjoys a presumption of the accuracy of the date and time it indicates and the integrity of the data to which it is bound, and a qualified time stamp issued in one member state is recognised in all of them. Alongside that, section 22 of the Electronic Commerce Act 2000 provides that the rules of evidence shall not deny admissibility to information in electronic form solely because it is electronic, or, where it is the best evidence the person adducing it could reasonably be expected to obtain, on the ground that it is not in its original form. The presumption goes to the time and the integrity of the data, not to the truth of what the page said, so an adjudicator 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.
Most Irish disputes are decided by a board or a commission rather than a court, and both work from evidence filed in advance. Our guide to RTB dispute evidence works through how that plays out when the file is due five working days before the hearing, and the WRC unfair dismissal guide covers the fifteen working day rule for documents. The same signed package strengthens a defamation letter or a report under Coco’s Law. Pricing starts at $8.99/month (approx. €7.80) with a 7-day free trial that requires a credit card. Used by lawyers, STR hosts, copyright enforcement firms, and compliance teams in 23 countries.

Why courts reject screenshots
United States courts rejected screenshot evidence in US v. Vayner, Griffin v. State and Serrano v. Cruz-Angeles. The authentication gap they identified is the same one here.
No timestamp proof
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.
No tampering detection
Any screenshot can be edited in 10 seconds with AI. In Sept 2025, a California judge dismissed a case after discovering deepfaked video evidence. Without a SHA-256 hash, there's no way to prove yours is real.
No chain of custody
Who captured it? When? On what device? How was it stored? Screenshots don't answer any of these questions. Under section 22 of the Electronic Commerce Act 2000 and eIDAS Article 41, digital evidence has to be authenticated.
Your screenshot
- 1 JPEG file, no proof it's real
- No timestamp, could have been taken anytime
- Editable in Photoshop in 10 seconds
- "Anyone could have made this", judge

Built for how disputes start in Ireland
Capture it before they delete it
Most Irish disputes never reach a courtroom. They are decided by an RTB adjudicator working from evidence filed in advance, by the Workplace Relations Commission inside a six-month window, or by a platform acting on a Hotline.ie takedown notice. Whether you are appealing to the Tenancy Tribunal within ten working days, lodging a WRC complaint, or preserving a publication before the one-year defamation clock runs out, ProofSnap locks the record 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".
RTB: deposits and terminations
The Residential Tenancies Board decides most Irish tenancy disputes, and it decides them on evidence filed in advance. Validity of a notice of termination, deposit retention, rent arrears and overholding all turn on documents, and evidence is due at the RTB five working days before the hearing, and a party who disagrees has ten working days to appeal to the Tenancy Tribunal. See the detail in our guide to RTB dispute evidence.
Defamation: one year, and no jury
The Defamation Act 2009 gives you one year, which a court can extend to two at the very most. Since 1 March 2026 juries are gone from High Court defamation actions and the Circuit Court can order an anonymous poster to be identified, which only works if you preserved the posting. See our guide to defamation evidence in Ireland.
Coco’s Law and Hotline.ie
Coco’s Law reaches distribution, threats to share and images that only purport to be of you, so deepfakes are inside the offence, with penalties to seven years. Hotline.ie issues takedown notices and had 92 per cent of the intimate images reported to it between September 2021 and December 2023 removed. The takedown works, and it removes your proof. Capture it first, as explained in our guide to Coco’s Law evidence.
Fraud, with no reimbursement right
Ireland has no mandatory reimbursement scheme. An Oireachtas committee recommended one in May 2026, but as things stand a bank is not obliged to refund you, which makes your evidence the whole of your case rather than a supporting document. Investment fraud reports rose more than twenty per cent in 2025 with over €20 million lost. Capture the site, the dashboard and the chat before the account disappears, then report to An Garda Síochána.

Official Irish sources
The legal framing on this page rests on the following primary sources. Check them rather than taking our word for it.
- Electronic Commerce Act 2000, section 22 admissibility is not denied because information is in electronic form, or because it is not in its original form where it is the best evidence reasonably obtainable.
- Regulation (EU) No 910/2014, Article 41 the presumption of the accuracy of the date and time and the integrity of the data, applying directly in Ireland.
- Workplace Relations Commission the six-month window for complaints and how adjudication works.
- Residential Tenancies Board: disputes adjudication, the determination order and the Tenancy Tribunal appeal.
- Hotline.ie the national reporting centre that issues takedown notices under its Code of Practice.
Don't trust us. Trust the maths.
Three vendor approaches. One critical difference.
Most web-evidence tools force you to depend on them. ProofSnap evidence is self-verifiable: anyone with the ZIP can confirm authenticity using open standards (SHA-256, OpenTimestamps, eIDAS), with or without ProofSnap continuing to exist.
| ProofSnap | Page Vault / Pagefreezer | Notary / Wayback Machine | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Verifiable without the vendor? | Yes, SHA-256 + OpenTimestamps work forever | No, verification requires their portal | No, depends on archive availability |
| What if the vendor disappears? | Evidence still valid | Evidence becomes hard to defend | Wayback can be wiped on request |
| Independent court-expert verification | Any IT expert, in 60 seconds | Requires vendor cooperation | Requires manual screenshot |
| Cryptographic proof in the file itself | Yes, open standards (SHA-256, OTS, eIDAS) | Proprietary format | None |
“Its merit is based on it being self-verifiable, and not necessarily dependent on the credit or level of trust afforded to the company or institution behind it.”

Video of Capture
capture_video.webm
Screen recording included in the evidence package, three modes:
- Auto: records the capture process (~60s), page scroll, screenshots, metadata extraction.
- Manual: press Start before playing media on the page (live stream, infringer video, deepfake), Stop & Capture when done. Up to 5 min on Essential / Pro, 10 min on Enterprise / Company.
- Session: multi-tab. Records continuously while you browse across multiple tabs, then bundles a per-tab forensic package for every visited tab (full-page screenshot, HTML, DOM, DNS, WHOIS, TLS, signed evidence.pdf) into one signed ZIP.
All three modes hash the recorded video into the signed manifest, any single-frame change breaks the signature. Available on all plans.

Independent legal opinion · 21 April 2026
Law firm confirms: ProofSnap is usable as evidence in court
The opinion was prepared by SEDLAKOVA LEGAL s.r.o. (Brno, Czech Bar Association, Company ID 05669871) under EU law (Regulation 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) added by the ProofSnap team for orientation of common-law readers.
FRE 901 · FRE 902(13)-(14) · CPR 32 · eIDAS Art. 41
Admissible across proceeding types
ProofSnap outputs are usable as means of evidence in civil, criminal and administrative proceedings. Authentication satisfied under FRE 901 / 902 in the US, CPR 32 in the UK, and free evaluation of evidence in EU systems, reinforced by US case law (Vayner, Lorraine v. Markel, Mendones).
Notarial deed · Court reporter affidavit
Cost-effective alternative to notary
The opinion describes ProofSnap as "a suitable and economical alternative" to notarial fact certification of website state. 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) 910/2014
Statutory presumption of accuracy
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, shifting the burden of disproof 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, no registration. The conclusions express the legal view of the author and do not constitute binding legal advice.
The burden of proof, reversed
ProofSnap's eIDAS qualified timestamps shift the legal burden. Under EU Regulation 910/2014, Article 41, your evidence is legally presumed accurate, and the opposing party must prove otherwise.
With ProofSnap eIDAS timestamp
- Opponent must prove your evidence is fake
- Legal presumption of accuracy (eIDAS Art. 41)
- Automatically recognised in all 27 EU member states
- No expert witness needed to explain the technology
- Dual timestamp: eIDAS qualified + Bitcoin blockchain
Regular screenshot or blockchain-only
- You must prove your evidence is real
- No legal presumption, judge decides case by case
- Court recognition varies by country
- May need expert witness to explain blockchain
- Deepfake objection can invalidate entire evidence

No retained law, no recognition argument
Ireland is the simplest jurisdiction we publish for. As an EU member state it applies eIDAS directly. There is no question of whether a regulation was carried across, no asymmetric recognition to explain and no domestic trusted list to check.
Article 41 applies as EU law
A qualified electronic time stamp enjoys a presumption of the accuracy of the date and the time it indicates and the integrity of the data to which they are bound. A qualified time stamp issued in one member state is recognised in all of them, so a timestamp from Disig a.s. works here exactly as it does at home.
Electronic Commerce Act 2000, section 22
The rules of evidence shall not deny admissibility to information in electronic form solely because it is electronic, nor, where it is the best evidence the person adducing it could reasonably be expected to obtain, on the ground that it is not in its original form.
Most disputes never reach a court
The Residential Tenancies Board and the Workplace Relations Commission decide the volume, and both work from evidence filed in advance. Neither applies the rules of evidence strictly, and both still weigh how reliable a record looks.
Deadlines are short and unforgiving
Six months for a WRC complaint, extendable to twelve only for reasonable cause. One year for defamation, two at the outside. Ten working days to appeal an RTB adjudication to the Tenancy Tribunal. None of them waits while you look for a copy of a deleted page.
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. An Irish court or an adjudicator 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.
Prices are charged in USD. The approximate euro figure shown under each price is for orientation only, converted at about €0.87 to US$1. Your card issuer sets the actual rate on the day.

Frequently Asked Questions
ProofSnap is a Chrome extension that captures web pages as legal evidence with blockchain timestamping, ensuring the authenticity and integrity of digital evidence.
ProofSnap uses OpenTimestamps to anchor a SHA-256 hash of your evidence to the Bitcoin blockchain, creating a cryptographic proof of when the capture was made. This timestamp is independently verifiable and cannot be backdated or tampered with, providing irrefutable proof that your evidence existed at a specific point in time.
ProofSnap includes a 7-day free trial with all plans. The trial requires a credit card, and you are not charged if you cancel before it ends. Choose from flexible monthly or annual subscriptions: Essential ($8.99/month (approx. €7.80) or $80/year (approx. €70)), Professional ($16.99/month (approx. €14.80) or $160/year (approx. €139)), or Enterprise ($28.99/month (approx. €25.20) or $280/year (approx. €244)). Annual plans save 20%.
ProofSnap generates forensically sound evidence with cryptographic
proofs aligned with eIDAS 2 standards for qualified timestamps and digital signatures. Admissibility depends on jurisdiction and specific legal
requirements. Consult with legal professionals for specific cases.
Regular screenshots can be challenged in court because they carry no proof of when they were taken or whether they have been altered. In Ireland the answer is unusually clean. Ireland is an EU member state, so eIDAS applies directly: under Article 41 a qualified electronic time stamp enjoys a presumption of the accuracy of the date and time it indicates and the integrity of the data to which they are bound, and a qualified time stamp issued in any member state is recognised in all of them. Alongside that, section 22 of the Electronic Commerce Act 2000 provides that the rules of evidence shall not deny admissibility to information in electronic form solely because it is electronic, nor, where it is the best evidence the person adducing it could reasonably be expected to obtain, on the ground that it is not in its original form. Most Irish disputes are decided by the Residential Tenancies Board or the Workplace Relations Commission rather than a court, and both work from evidence filed in advance.
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:
- SHA-256 Hashing: Every file in the evidence package is hashed. Changing even a single pixel or character produces a completely different hash, making any tampering immediately detectable.
- Digital Signature: The manifest (listing all files and their hashes) is digitally signed with a private key. The corresponding public key is included for anyone to verify authenticity.
- Blockchain Timestamp: The manifest hash is anchored to the Bitcoin blockchain via OpenTimestamps, creating an immutable record of when the evidence was captured. This timestamp cannot be forged or backdated.
Together, these mechanisms create a chain of integrity that proves the evidence is authentic, unaltered, and was captured at a specific point in time.
The eIDAS 2 regulation (EU 2024/1183) is fully rolling 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, qualified electronic timestamps enjoy a legal presumption of accuracy for the date and time they indicate, and the integrity of the data to which the timestamp is linked. This means evidence timestamped with a qualified service is admissible across all EU courts.
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 any EU jurisdiction.
