What is EU AI Act Article 50? (AI transparency obligations)
Article 50 of the EU AI Act sets transparency duties: providers of AI that generates synthetic media must mark outputs in a machine-readable way, and deployers of deepfake systems must disclose that content is artificial. The Commission's Code of Practice points to provenance credentials of this kind. The obligations apply from August 2, 2026. ChronoVerify is the verification and audit layer organisations use to read and validate those credentials; it does not by itself make anyone compliant, and it is not legal advice.
Why it matters
Article 50 is a transparency regime, not a per-image signal. ChronoVerify helps organisations meet it by reading and cryptographically validating the C2PA provenance credentials the Commission's Code of Practice points to, and by producing a signed, timestamped audit record of each check. The obligations apply from August 2, 2026. ChronoVerify does not by itself make anyone compliant, and it is not legal advice.
