Frequently asked questions

Is the signature legally binding?

A typed or drawn signature counts as an electronic signature in most jurisdictions for everyday agreements. For regulated industries you may need a certified PKI signature.

Nowhere on the internet. Signing happens fully in your browser and the signed PDF downloads directly to your device.

Can I use a scanned signature image?

Yes — upload a transparent PNG of your signature and place it on the page.
