Evidence

E-signature evidence: what we record, and what we cannot do.

A trust page that only lists what a product can do is a marketing page. The useful half is the constraints.

A certificate, checked

What anybody sees at signsealer.com/verify with a code from a completed agreement: whether the certificate still matches the record behind it, and everything that record says. This is the real page.

The certificate check page: a green notice that the certificate matches the record, the document's title, code, dates and fingerprint, and who signed.
A completed kayak rental waiver on an example account, checked by its code.

What is recorded

Every step, in order

Created, sent, delivered, viewed, consented, signed, completed — each with the time, the address and the browser, and the hash of the text as it stood at that moment.

Consent as its own event

Written before the signature is accepted. The engine refuses a signature from a signer who has not consented; it is not a field on the signature row.

The exact text

Stored on the document, not a reference to a template. Retention means reproducing what was agreed, and the template can change — that is the whole point of versioning it.

A chain that breaks if edited

Each audit row's hash covers its own content and the hash before it, per customer. Removing or altering one breaks every row after it.

Things we will not claim

We are not a law firm

We build the evidence. Whether a particular agreement is enforceable where you are — and whether your waiver language holds in your state — is a question for your own counsel.

A signature is not identity

An email link proves possession of an inbox. Where you need more than that, there is a passcode and an ID check — and the certificate says which was used rather than implying the strongest.
