Is SmartProtec a registry?
SmartProtec is not a registry in the traditional sense. It is a theft prevention and recovery service. There are countless number of registries for example, manufacturers (or retailers) provide registries for people to register their products. Such registries have been in use for numerous decades at least. But does it prevent theft? Or Does it provide a professional recovery service? If SmartProtec were a registry, manufacturers and retailers would not provide SmartProtec to their customers because they already provide a registry. But numerous and growing number of manufacturers and retailers are providing SmartProtec, not for registration but, for theft prevention and other benefits. SmartProtec prevents theft of items and helps recover them quickly in case of theft or loss. That’s why even the police recommend this kind of method (making items identifiable).
