A system includes a memory storing software code, and a hardware processor executing the software code to receive media content including a media content ID, identify, using the media content ID, one or more rule(s) governing use of the media content, the rule(s) including at least one of: (a) one or more first rules restricting use of the media content, or (b) one or more second rules permitting use of the media content, and generate, based on the rule(s), a digital contract specifying at least one of: (i) one or more constraints on use of the media content, or (ii) one or more enablements on use of the media content. The software code also registers the digital contract with the media content ID in a secure database, generates, using data identifying the secure database, a first watermark, and embeds the first watermark identifying the secure database into the media content.
