Totally unprofessional. Caveat emptor. My attorney told me to never sign an agreement like theirs. If they give you a computer virus and take down your system, you agree that they are NOT liable. Also, if you do sue them all litigation has to occur in San Diego, CA. We should boycott them until they change their terms and conditions.

Good to know about Notary Pin. Never heard of them until about 3 days ago when I suddenly got several orders emailed to me. I apparently wasn’t fast enough in my response and thus, didn’t get the assignments. Maybe that was a good thing given your experience.
I’ve been in this notary business for almost 3 years and have done hundreds and hundreds of signings and, so far, I’ve been paid on every one, although in a few cases, it took some doing to get it. Bilingual Brothers stiffed me $50 on a $100 signing - that’s it! I’m just lucky I guess.

Hi Val,
I appreciate you taking the time to share your concerns. I want to clarify that the Indemnification Agreement is a standard legal document designed to protect both parties and ensure that we work with professional and reliable notaries handling sensitive information. It was drafted by our attorney and is similar to agreements used in various industries.
Regarding your concern about the clause on viruses, the likelihood of such an issue occurring is extremely low. However, as with many professional service agreements, certain disclaimers are included as a precaution. The agreement simply acknowledges that Notary Pin cannot be held responsible for matters outside our direct control, such as files uploaded by third-party clients.
I understand that legal agreements can sometimes raise concerns, and I respect your decision if you prefer not to sign. Working as an independent mobile notary gives you the flexibility to choose who you work with, just as we select notaries who align with our processes and expectations.
Many notaries who have worked with us appreciate our fast payment schedule as we pay 2x Monthly (the 15th and last day of every month), strong communication, and commitment to supporting our notaries. We strive to create a professional and mutually beneficial working relationship. While I regret that you didn’t have the chance to experience working with us firsthand, I appreciate your feedback and wish you the best in your notary business.
Best,
Jonathan
CEO, Notary Pin
