How does Guard ProStamp protect the integrity of my professional license?
Guard ProStamp protects the integrity of your professional license by providing a secure platform
for logging your authorized projects. It creates a verifiable record of your involvement, making
it difficult for unlicensed individuals or fraudulent entities to misuse your license.
Can I use Guard ProStamp to verify the authorization of other professionals' projects?
Guard ProStamp is primarily designed for licensed professionals to maintain records of their own
authorized projects. However, the app allows government employees in building department, such
as city plan checkers and reviewers, within a specific state or city to verify the authenticity
of authorization stamps for projects within their jurisdiction. The verification process is
limited to the territory in which the government employee operates, ensuring that they can only
access project and license information relevant to their area of responsibility. This localized
approach enhances privacy and security by limiting access to project details and license
information to the appropriate authorities within their specific territory.
Is my personal and license information secure on Guard ProStamp?
Yes, we take data security seriously. Guard ProStamp employs robust security measures to protect
your personal and license information. We utilize encryption protocols and follow industry best
practices to ensure the confidentiality and integrity of your data.
How does the verification process work for city plan checkers and reviewers?
When city plan checkers and reviewers receive a set of drawings submitted by contractors or
homeowners, they examine the authorization stamps on the drawings. To verify the authenticity of
the authorization, they cross-reference the license number provided on the stamps with our
platform. Our platform instantly displays the projects that have been authorized by
professionals within their specific area. This streamlined process ensures that city plan
checkers and reviewers can efficiently verify the legitimacy of the authorization, as they are
presented with a clear list of projects that professionals have authorized in that particular
jurisdiction. This approach enhances accuracy and expedites the review process, providing
confidence in the validity of the authorization stamps.
What happens if a contractor or homeowner attempts to fake a stamp on a drawing?
Guard ProStamp serves as a strong deterrent against the use of fake stamps. If a
license number
on a submitted drawing does not match any confirmed projects in the app, it raises a red flag,
indicating potential fraudulent activity. This helps prevent unlicensed or unprofessional
contractors and homeowners from misrepresenting authorization.
