Yes, that's the point.
If my counterparty had signed some contract or document, he/she should 
not be able to delete his/her public key certificate and data used for 
its verification.
So in case of dispute I can prove that he/she really signed the document.
This is exactly the part that is difficult to ensure, especially given 
the new European legislation (GDPR). We needed to develop a 
justification for this. We had registered by U.K. Information 
Commissioner's Office (https://ico.org.uk) , hired certified Data 
Protection Officer etc.

For now we have connected notaries only in Tel Aviv and Kyiv.

The main verification method is online verification, and we have already 
users with verified keys from 34 countries.
