Electronic Signature Disclosure

EZ Recert is operated by EZ Recert LLC. New York State EMS agencies use it to prepare, sign and file the paperwork their providers need to stay certified.

You were sent a document because an agency using EZ Recert named you as one of its signers. EZ Recert LLC runs the signing service itself, on its own systems — the document was not handed to an outside e-signature company to send on the agency's behalf.

This disclosure explains how electronic signing works here, what you are agreeing to when you sign, and how to stop.

When you use EZ Recert to put your electronic signature on a document, you are consenting to sign electronically under the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (the E-Sign Act) and any other law that applies. You are also agreeing to receive the notices connected to that document electronically.

An electronic signature you make here — by opening the document from the link sent to you and entering or drawing your name, or by any other signing method offered on the page — is legally binding. It carries the same weight and is as enforceable as a signature written in ink on paper.

To sign electronically you need:

• a working internet connection;
• the email account the document was sent to;
• a device that can open and read a PDF; and
• a way to download or print the document, if you want your own copy.

Everything to do with signing is delivered electronically — by email, and on the signing pages the email links to. Keeping the address the document was sent to working, and reachable by you, is what makes that delivery good.

By signing electronically you agree to carry out this transaction and receive its disclosures electronically, and you accept the terms of the document you are signing. Read the document itself before you sign it — this disclosure covers the method, not the contents.

You may withdraw your consent to sign electronically at any time before you finish signing. To withdraw it, contact the agency that sent you the document — they are the only ones who can decide what happens to it next. If you cannot reach them, write to support@ezrecert.com and we will tell them.

Withdrawing consent, or declining to sign, stops the document where it stands. Nobody after you in the order is asked to sign, and the agency has to decide whether to send it again, send it to somebody else, or drop it. Nothing already signed is lost.

A signing request nobody acts on is given up on after four weeks. The links in the email stop working, and the agency is told it ended.

Tell the agency that named you if your email address changes. Signing requests, reminders and the finished document all go to the address they gave us, and mail to an address you no longer read is the usual reason a packet stalls.

When you sign, you can view, download and print the document. When the last signer is done, everyone who signed is emailed to say so and a completed copy is made available.

Download or print your copy while you have it. If you have an EZ Recert account, the completed document also stays on your dashboard; if you signed without one — as an agency's CIC, training officer or medical director usually does — that emailed copy is the one to keep.

EZ Recert LLC retains the signed document as part of the agency's record. Signed packets are also filed by the agency with New York State or the relevant regional authority, and what those bodies do with them afterwards is governed by their rules rather than by this disclosure.

By going on to sign electronically on EZ Recert, you confirm that you have read and understood this disclosure, and that you agree to the terms set out here for electronic signatures and electronic transactions.

For anything about this disclosure, about electronic signing, or about a document you have been sent, write to support@ezrecert.com.

For anything about the document itself — why you were named, what it says, or when it is due — the agency that sent it is the faster answer.
