ELOQIO AI Content Reservation

विवरण

ELOQIO AI Content Reservation implements the W3C TDM Reservation Protocol (TDMRep) on your WordPress site. TDMRep is the technical counterpart of the European DSM Directive (Article 4) and the AI Act: it lets publishers legally reserve their rights regarding the use of their content for Text and Data Mining, including generative AI training.

Unlike robots.txt, which is a voluntary convention, TDMRep has legal weight. AI providers that ignore a properly deployed TDMRep signal expose themselves to substantial fines under the EU AI Act starting August 2026.

What this plugin does

• Serves /.well-known/tdmrep.json dynamically — no file to create, no FTP required
• Adds the tdm-reservation HTTP header on every front-end response
• Injects the matching <meta name="tdm-reservation"> tag in the HTML head
• Supports the optional tdm-policy URL to link to your human-readable policy document
• Ships with a Site Health check that verifies the endpoint responds correctly
• Zero dependencies, zero tracking, zero external API calls

Why three delivery methods?

The TDMRep specification allows crawlers to look for the signal in any of the three locations. Deploying all three maximises the chance that AI bots actually pick up your reservation.

Evidence preservation

After activating the plugin, submit your endpoint URL to the Wayback Machine to create a timestamped proof of publication. This is essential if you ever need to demonstrate the date from which your reservation was in force.

Who is this for?

News publishers, bloggers, authors, creative agencies, and any content creator who wants to keep a clear legal record of their opt-out from AI training. Combine this plugin with blocking rules for known AI crawlers in your robots.txt for defence in depth.
