Proudly Human certifies your thesis as human-authored by reviewing the submitted PDF. This is limited to verification of human authorship through our AI detection suite. We will never use your work for AI training or any purpose other than verification of human authorship.
We require access to your thesis PDF for an authenticity check to verify it qualifies as human-authored under our standards.
We will never use your thesis text, or any derivative or excerpt, for training, fine-tuning, or improving any artificial intelligence model, whether internal, third-party, or future-developed.
We will never generate summaries, edits, derivative works, or any other content based on your thesis.
We will never share your thesis with any third party except under non-disclosure agreements for anonymized verification, and only as necessary for the certification process.
If your thesis passes verification, we issue a certificate confirming human authorship; this grants no ownership or further rights over your work to us.
You may withdraw your submission and request destruction of your thesis and any temporary files at any time before certification is finalized, or request deletion post-certification if desired.
If your application is approved and you receive certification, your thesis will be stored securely for five years with access restricted to two employees of Proudly Human. This is to ensure that any controversy regarding authorship can be fully investigated using the text at the time of approval.
If your application is not approved, then the thesis will be stored for six months prior to being securely deleted. This is to assist you should you want to appeal the outcome of the application.
