Use a I Also Authorize The Communication Of Information Related To The 2017 template to make your document workflow more streamlined.

What this authorization form does

I Also Authorize The Communication Of Information Related To The is a written consent form that identifies information a person permits an organization to communicate to specified recipients. The signer reviews the categories of information, the authorized recipient, the purpose, and any expiration or revocation terms before signing. A completed form creates a record of the signer’s intent and the permitted disclosure scope. In the United States, electronic execution may be supported by ESIGN and applicable state law when consent, attribution, and record retention requirements are satisfied.

Features for this authorization workflow

signNow connects document preparation, signer verification, electronic execution, and audit evidence for organizations managing this authorization form.

Field preparation

Upload the authorization once, then review detected fields before sending. Manual field placement lets you correct missing names, dates, signatures, or disclosure details without recreating the document.

Signer delivery

Send the authorization to the intended signer by email or a controlled signing link. The signer can review the disclosure scope before applying an electronic signature.

Audit trail

Capture timestamps, signer actions, and completion evidence in an audit trail. Keep the trail with the signed authorization when responding to an internal or legal review.

Signer authentication

Use SMS OTP or other available controls when the authorization requires stronger signer attribution. Select the authentication method based on the sensitivity of the information and recipient.

Record storage

Store the completed authorization and certificate of completion with the related disclosure record. Access controls help limit exposure after signing and downloading.

Reusable template

Use templates when the organization repeatedly sends the same authorization. Review each recipient, purpose, and information category before dispatching the prepared form.

Record-keeping practices for authorizations

Retain this authorization with the communication record and apply the rule governing the underlying information, not an assumed universal deadline.

Define retention for the underlying records

Keep the signed authorization, audit trail, and certificate of completion together in a controlled repository. Apply the retention period required for the underlying information and industry, because no universal period applies to every authorization form. Document any legal hold before deletion.

Preserve the authorized scope

Record exactly what information the signer authorized, who may receive it, and why. Avoid relying on a broad label when the communication concerns health, financial, employment, or other sensitive information. Align the completed copy with the organization’s disclosure policy.

Protect sensitive completed forms

Limit access to staff who process or review the authorized communication. Use role-based permissions, protect downloaded PDFs, and track exports. If protected health information is involved, coordinate retention and access controls with HIPAA requirements and the organization’s policies.

Check scope before disclosure

Review the authorization before using it for a later disclosure. Confirm that the signer, recipient, purpose, information categories, and expiration terms still match the proposed communication, and obtain a new authorization when the original scope no longer covers the request.

Privacy and disclosure pitfalls

  • A broad description of information may fail to show exactly what the signer authorized for communication.
  • Sending the completed form to an unintended recipient can expose personal, health, financial, or employment information.
  • Missing consent evidence can make it difficult to prove the signer agreed to electronic delivery and signature.
  • Unrestricted downloads can allow staff without a business need to access the authorization and related disclosure record.

Authorization form troubleshooting

Resolve signing, authentication, field, and retention issues without changing the authorization’s intended disclosure scope.

On the Business plan, upload the authorization PDF and review detected fields before sending. If a field is missing, add the signer’s name, signature, date, recipient, and disclosure details manually. Confirm the final copy matches the source authorization before delivery.

A typed or drawn signature can evidence intent under ESIGN and UETA when the signer consents and the record remains accessible. For sensitive disclosures, use stronger authentication, preserve the audit trail, and follow any industry-specific requirements governing the underlying information.

Use SMS OTP or another available authentication control when the recipient or organization requires stronger signer attribution. Authentication supports evidence but does not replace accurate disclosure terms, required consumer consent, or any separate identity-proofing obligation.

The Business plan includes audit trails, templates, and mobile apps at $8/user/month with annual billing. Paid plans include 100 signature invites per user per year; overage fees apply. Confirm the plan’s current limits before sending high-volume authorization batches.

If the authorization concerns protected health information, signNow identifies HIPAA compliance as requiring a BAA. Execute the BAA and configure access, retention, and disclosure controls before using the workflow for PHI.

If a signer cannot access the email, verify the address, resend the invitation, or provide a controlled signing link. Keep the recipient and disclosure scope unchanged, then confirm the completed document and certificate of completion are stored together.
