Now keep it safe: three things
  1. Keep your photos and files unedited. The receipt only matches the originals. Put them in an album such as “My records”.
  2. Save this receipt to your camera roll.

    Keep the receipt file too. The image is a handy copy; checking needs the file.

  3. Email it to yourself.Email it to myself

    Your mail app opens a draft. Attach your receipt image and receipt file. Don’t attach your photos or documents. Timevolt does not send it or know whether it was sent.

        How to keep notes that hold up

        Write notes as soon as you can. Keep the original account rather than replacing it later; the venue decides what weight it gets.

        1. Write it down straight away, on paper or in the box on a step.
        2. Put the date, time and place at the top, and who you spoke to.
        3. Use their words where you can; separate what you saw from what you were told.
        4. Sign or initial a paper note, photograph it and add the photo.
        5. Never edit an old note. Add a new dated entry when something changes. A device save time is not independent time evidence or proof of event order.

        Early ownership findings can leave contract issues open

        A record deal raised questions about masters, prior approval and when files were delivered. The court kept an early ownership ruling and refused an order to stop use. The facts found then would not bind a later trial, and contract questions stayed open.

        Name creative work and properly offer the recordings

        A producer sought recording rights but gave no clear account of creative work. Original CDs were not properly offered for other claims, which also lost without trial. Most judges kept those results, though one partly disagreed.
