CREATIONPROTECTOR

CONTENT ACCESS SECURITY

Your creations,
for your supporters.

Sharing a link should not share its access rights.
We verify Patreon membership and tier
before allowing a download.

01 / HOW IT WORKS

Between the link and the file,
membership comes first.

Share a protected link in your post.
When someone opens it, we check
whether their membership allows access.

  1. 01

    Open the protected link

    A supporter opens the link in your post. It does not point directly to a downloadable file.

  2. 02

    Authenticate with Patreon

    The visitor logs in with Patreon. Their membership for this creator is verified.

  3. 03

    Check the required tier

    The supporter's tier is compared with the work's requirement. Only matching requests proceed.

  4. 04

    Deliver the file

    Uploaded files are delivered through short-lived download URLs, and the download is recorded.

Unverified requests stop here. Knowing the link is not enough: membership and tier requirements must be met.

02 / GET STARTED

For your existing posts,
just change the link.

Three steps for creators.
Connect your account, add a work,
and share the protected link with supporters.

  1. 01 — CONNECT

    Connect your Patreon account

    Log in as a creator, then confirm your campaign and membership tiers.

  2. 02 — SET ACCESS

    Add a work and set its tier

    Upload the file and choose the tier required to download it.

  3. 03 — SHARE

    Share the protected link

    Add the protected link to your Patreon post. Access is checked before download.

03 / BUILT FOR CREATORS

Precise access rules.
Clear management.

Create on your own terms.
Manage who can download each work
with Creation Protector.

01

Copy the whole post, and the file still stays behind

Automated scrapers copy post text and attachment URLs as they are. A protected link requires Patreon login and a tier check every time it is opened, so a copied post does not open the file without verification.

02

A different tier for each work

Set the required tier for each work. Higher tiers can also access works released to lower tiers.

03

Downloads that open when needed

After verification, uploaded files are delivered through temporary URLs. Your post does not need to expose a direct file URL.

Time-limited file delivery
04

Your work's history, in your account

Works and download records are separated by creator. Patreon tokens are used only to verify information and are not stored.

04 / QUESTIONS

Before you
get started.

What happens if a link is shared elsewhere?

Anyone can open the protected link, but downloading requires verified membership for the creator and the right tier. Knowing the link does not grant access.

Can you prevent redistribution of downloaded files?

We cannot prevent copying or redistribution after a file has been downloaded. This service controls access by checking membership and tier before download.

Do you store Patreon passwords or tokens?

You enter your password on Patreon. We use tokens only to verify membership and do not store them. Details about collected information are in our Privacy policy.

How is this different from passwords or Discord?

A password spreads along with the post, and changing it means notifying every supporter again. Discord requires supporters to create a Discord account, link it to Patreon and join your server, and per-work tiers need separate channels and roles. With Creation Protector, supporters click the link in your post and log in with Patreon; their tier is checked automatically, and access stops from the next download once they cancel.

Can I upload adult (18+) works?

We follow the same rules as Patreon. Only creators whose Patreon page is classified as Adult/18+ can upload them, and only paying supporters who confirmed on Patreon that they are 18 or older can download them. Anything Patreon prohibits, such as depictions of minors, is prohibited here too.

Where do supporters download files?

Supporters start with the protected link in the creator's post. Login on this homepage is for creators managing works and files.

05 / TRUST

Before you trust us
with your files.

Private storage, temporary URLs

Files are kept in private Cloudflare R2 storage and delivered only to verified requests, through URLs that expire within minutes.

Only what is needed

Patreon tokens are never stored, and supporters' email and IP addresses are not recorded.

Export and leave at any time

Download your works list and download history as CSV, and leave from settings to delete everything, including stored files.
