ESIGN and UETA
HurrySign is built for a United States electronic-signature ceremony. It is not a law firm, and this page is not legal advice. Whether a signature holds up in a dispute is a question for the parties and their counsel.
What the ceremony records
Before signing, the signer sees a disclosure and checks a box agreeing to electronic records. The product stores the disclosure version and a SHA-256 of that text, plus the time, IP address, and browser. Finishing requires an explicit Adopt and Sign action. The certificate lists each signer, how they authenticated, and the SHA-256 of each document and of the original package. The hash of the finished file stays in the audit trail. It is not printed inside the file it describes.
What this does not promise
HurrySign does not claim that every document is legally binding, and it does not claim “ESIGN and UETA compliant” as a guarantee. Some documents are excluded from those statutes. United States ESIGN and UETA rules generally do not cover every document. Do not use this product for the excluded types listed below. This list is a plain-language summary, not legal advice.
- Wills, codicils, and testamentary trusts
- Adoption, divorce, and other family-law documents where the law requires a special form
- Court orders, notices, and official court documents
- Notices of cancellation or termination of utility services
- Notices of default, acceleration, repossession, foreclosure, or eviction
- Notices canceling or terminating health insurance or life insurance benefits
- Product recall notices
- Documents required to transport or handle hazardous materials
The sender confirms, before send, that the envelope is not one of those types. That confirmation is recorded. It is not a legal opinion.
The contract terms are still a draft. Read the terms and privacy pages, and have counsel review them before you rely on them.
