1 Our Zero-Tolerance IP Commitment

8btm.com (8btm.com) and our parent company ZHILEI maintain a proactive, rigorous stance regarding intellectual property protection. As an international manufacturing marketplace catering to high-value industrial sectors, we hold patent validity, proprietary industrial design, and trade secrets in the highest regard.

We strictly comply with the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) guidelines, the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), and national patent enforcement treaties.

2 Client Blueprint & CAD Protection Framework
Automatic Multi-Party Non-Disclosure (NDA)
Every supplier entering the 8btm.com verified supplier network signs a legally binding Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA). All uploaded 2D drawings and 3D CAD files (STEP, STL, SLDPRT) are watermarked, cryptographically signed, and strictly restricted to approved production lines. Unauthorized replication or tooling retention will result in immediate forfeiture of the supplier's security deposit and criminal prosecution.
