Frequently asked questions and answers
-
Is an electronic signature legally binding?
Yes. Under the ESIGN Act (15 U.S.C. §7001) and UETA (adopted in 49 states), electronic signatures are generally legally equivalent to handwritten signatures, except where a statute specifically excludes e-signatures.
-
When is a notary required?
Notarization depends on the document type and state; deeds and some POAs commonly require a notarized acknowledgement. Check state rules where the transaction is recorded.
-
How do I correct a signed document?
If a material error exists, execute an amendment or corrected agreement signed by all parties. Do not alter an executed original without a signed amendment or replacement.
-
Which authentication should I use?
Select authentication proportional to risk: email-only for low-risk, SMS/KBA for higher risk, and two-factor or SSO for internal enterprise signers to strengthen attribution.
-
Which signNow plan supports bulk send?
Bulk send is included on Business Premium and higher plans; review plan details to confirm volume and feature limits.
-
How long is the audit trail retained?
Retention depends on platform settings and plan; maintain audit trails for the applicable legal retention period and ensure reproducibility for dispute defense.
