Article 2839 deals with the integrity of a document used as evidence: integrity is assured when the information has not been altered, is kept in its entirety, and the medium gives it the required stability and durability. Where the technology can neither confirm nor deny integrity, the document may still be received as testimony or as material evidence.
In evidence, integrity is the central question for a technology-based document: what matters is not the medium but that the information has remained unchanged and complete.
For a co-ownership, this bears directly on minutes, resolutions and certificates kept in digital form: their evidentiary value depends on maintaining their integrity.
CondoAide aims to preserve integrity through time-stamping, hashing (document fingerprints) and storage that prevents silent modification of documents.
