Privacy and disclosure pitfalls
Personal information can remain visible in completed application records when unnecessary fields are copied into every signed document. Consent language may be omitted or separated from the signature event, weakening evidence that each signer agreed electronically. Unrestricted template permissions can let unauthorized users change checklist criteria or review instructions before distribution. Shared download folders can expose signed applications and reviewer comments to people without a business need to access them.
