Retention and record-keeping practices

Keep this Trinity College internship contract with its execution evidence, access controls, and institution-approved retention instructions.

Document the governing retention rule

Retain the completed internship contract for the period required by your institution’s records policy, and document that policy beside the stored file rather than assuming a universal federal deadline.

Preserve the audit trail

Export the signed PDF and its signNow audit trail together. Preserve signer identity events, timestamps, IP information, and completion evidence so the Trinity College internship arrangement can be reconstructed during a review.

Use secure institutional storage

Store the contract in an access-controlled institutional repository, using the student’s or intern’s authorized record location. Avoid personal email folders and restrict access to personnel handling placement, supervision, or compliance.

Verify every completed field

Review the contract before sending to confirm the internship dates, exploratory placement terms, supervisor details, student information, and signatures are complete. Correcting fields before execution reduces later amendments and disputes.

Retention schedule for related records

The contract itself follows Trinity College’s records policy; the periods below apply only when the signed internship file also contains the specified regulated record class.

Institution-approved retention period

Apply Trinity College’s approved retention schedule to the executed contract and its audit evidence.

Three years for tax records

Troubleshooting the internship contract workflow

Resolve field, signer, consent, enforceability, plan, and storage issues before treating the Trinity College contract as fully executed.

Upload the original Trinity College internship contract rather than a low-quality scan, then inspect detected fields manually. signNow supports templates and field placement, but the sender remains responsible for confirming student, host, supervisor, date, and signature fields.

Check the routing order and each recipient’s email address before sending. The sender can place signature fields for the student, college representative, host organization, or supervisor and resend a request when an address or role was entered incorrectly.

Use signNow’s audit trail and completion certificate to document intent, timestamps, signer actions, and the completed file. ESIGN and UETA recognize electronic signatures when intent, consent, attribution, and record reproduction requirements are satisfied.

For a consumer-facing electronic record, provide the required ESIGN disclosure, explain the right to paper records, confirm electronic access, and provide a withdrawal process under 15 U.S.C. §7001(c). This matters when an intern is treated as a consumer.

The Business plan is listed at $8 per user per month with annual billing and includes legally binding eSignatures, templates, and audit trails. Business Premium is listed at $15 and adds bulk send and kiosk mode.

Keep the signed contract and exported audit trail in the institution-approved repository, with role-based access limited to placement personnel. signNow encrypts data in transit with TLS 1.2/1.3 and at rest with AES-256.
