💡 At a glance
In sproof Sign, companies and individuals can store signature certificates to issue advanced signatures with an official digital proof. While for individuals this is referred to as a digital signature, the same technology in a corporate context is called a company seal (engl. SEAL). Both are based on a digital certificate that is uniquely assigned to a person or organization.
📑 Using signature certificates in sproof Sign
1. What is a signature certificate?
A signature certificate is the digital identity card of a person or organization. It confirms the identity of the signer and ensures that the signature is authentic, tamper-proof, and legally valid.
-
For natural persons: Digital signature
-
For legal entities (organizations): Company seal
2. When is a certificate used?
In sproof Sign, a stored certificate is always applied for advanced signatures.
Certificates can:
-
be used for automated seals (not person-specific)
-
be used for manual seals
-
be used as the default certificate for advanced signatures.
3. How can certificates be integrated in sproof Sign?
As a plan admin, you have the option to manage signature certificates flexibly:
Share company-wide (company seal):
The certificate is shared with the entire plan and can be used by all team members.
Assign individually:
The certificate is specifically released only for individual persons within your plan.
Note: Both variants offer a high level of control and traceability in signature assignment.
4. Add a certificate in sproof Sign
If you already have a valid certificate (e.g., from a QTSP – Qualified Trust Service Provider), you can independently upload it to your plan:
Path:
Settings → Plan Management → Add Certificate
Prerequisite:
The certificate must be functional, valid, and correctly issued.
Afterwards:
You can release the certificate for the entire plan or specifically for individual team members
