How will confidentiality be ensured?

The confidentiality of priority documents that are not yet publicly available will be ensured via an access control list within the service monitored by the patent applicant. An applicant requesting a certified copy of a priority document to be made available via the service will receive an access code from WIPO. This access code will enable the patent applicant to maintain control over access to the document and to specify which Offices should have permission to access the priority document.
