Is Maditon an archive of my contracts and my suppliers' documents?

The distinction matters for how you file things, so Maditon states it on every export cover page and in its terms.

• A published document is fetched and fetched again. The copy on file is what stood at that address on that day; when the supplier changes the page, the copy changes with it and the difference is recorded. The history of fetches and changes is kept; the pages themselves remain the supplier’s.
• An uploaded document is a copy of a file you have. Replacing it replaces the copy. The signed original belongs in your own records, where your contracts live.
• A finding is Maditon’s reading of a copy. What the document obliges anyone to do is decided by the original, not by the reading.
• PDF packages are generated on demand and never stored. Each one says on its cover that it is a copy of what Maditon had read on that date.

When you leave, the Data Act export gives you everything — the register, the copies, the readings, the questionnaires — in JSON and CSV with a manifest. Nothing is held back, and nothing about the copies is a reason to stay. Keep your signed originals in your own records; Maditon has a copy, reads it and tells you what it says.
