We take your privacy seriously. Any personal information you provide to us is strictly confidential and will only be used to facilitate your notary services. We will never share your personal information with third parties without your explicit consent, except as required by law.
Data Security: We use secure methods to store your personal information and ensure it is protected against unauthorized access.
What We Collect: When you book an appointment, we may collect personal information such as your name, phone number, email address, and details about the documents needing notarization.
Use of Information: This information is used solely for the purpose of providing notary services, communicating with you, and fulfilling any legal obligations.
By using our website or services, you consent to the collection and use of your personal data as described in this policy.
Disclaimers
Not Legal Advice: Our notary services are provided in accordance with Florida law. However, we do not offer legal advice, and it is your responsibility to ensure that your documents comply with the applicable legal requirements. If you need legal advice, please consult a licensed attorney.
Notary Services Only: We are licensed notaries, but we are not responsible for the accuracy or legal validity of the documents themselves. We are only responsible for confirming your identity and witnessing your signature.
State-Specific Notary Regulations (Florida)
As a licensed notary in Florida, we follow all state-specific requirements, including:
Identification: Florida notaries are required to verify the identity of the signer. Acceptable forms of ID include a valid driver’s license, passport, or government-issued photo ID.
Notary Fees: Florida law limits the fees that notaries can charge. The maximum fee for most notarial acts is $10 per signature, with certain exceptions for services such as loan signings or travel fees for mobile notaries.
Electronic Notarization: Florida allows for electronic signatures and notarizations, but the notary must follow all specific procedures outlined by state law.
Witnesses: Some documents may require one or more witnesses. It is your responsibility to ensure that witnesses are present at the time of notarization.
Remote Online Notarization (RON): Florida permits remote online notarizations. We comply with all requirements for performing remote notarizations, which includes video conferencing, identity verification, and digital signatures.
Record Keeping
Florida law mandates that notaries keep a record (journal) of all notarizations performed. We maintain detailed records for all transactions and will retain these records as required by law. You may request a copy of the journal entry, but we are unable to provide copies of notarized documents unless required by law.
Limitation of Liability
While we take great care to provide accurate and reliable services, we are not liable for any consequences resulting from the use or execution of notarized documents. We are also not responsible for any errors made by clients in completing their documents prior to notarization.
Changes to Privacy Policy & Terms
We reserve the right to update or change our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service at any time. Any updates will be posted on this page with the revised date. It is your responsibility to review this policy periodically to stay informed of any changes.
