LuxSci SecureForm is an easy way to add or enhance security and/or functionality to web and PDF forms you use to collect important information. Receive the form data via insecure or secure email in a broad range of formats, and/or save it to a LuxSci Documents WebAide (encryption optional) for future online access.

With the new “Dynamic Subject” feature of SecureForm, you can now auto-substitute the posted form content from one or more of your form fields into the subject line of the form-data-laden email messages that you receive from SecureForm.*

For example, instead of receiving a message with a generic subject like “Form post from your contact information form”, it could now be dynamic.  You could enter the subject with a place holder, i.e. “Contact information form post from {{contact_name}}”.  The data posted in the form field named “contact_name” would be substituted and you would get an email that with a subject line of “Contact information form post from John Smith”.

You can have multiple place holders in your subject lines.

For an overview of SecureForm, see our SecureForm video.

* Note that the Dynamic Subject feature of SecureForm is not available to HIPAA accounts for compliance reasons.

LuxSci’s SecureForm service enables you to quickly make your web site or PDF forms secure and HIPAA compliant. Receive the form data, including uploaded files, via secure email or download the data securely from LuxSci’s web interface.  It also supports insecure form posts and delivery, making the usual form-to-email process easy to setup and protected from form Spam.

Typically, when using SecureForm, your web or PDF form will post to a secure web site address (URL) that is provided by LuxSci in the LuxSci.com domain name.  I.e. something like “https://secureform.luxsci.com/perl/post/xxxxxxx”.  Once the form data is processed, the end user is redirected to a success or failure web page on your site (for web forms), or is shown a success or failure PDF that you provide (for PDF forms).  I.e. under most conditions, the end user will never see the domain name to which the form is posted.

For customers who wish to use their own web site URL for the secure form posts, perhaps something like “https://forms.yourdomain.com/perl/post/xxxxxxx”, LuxSci now has a solution that does not require getting a dedicated server!

One of the most ubiquitous parts of a web site is the “contact us” form.  Other types of forms abound  — for collecting customer requests, quote requests, surveys, customer feed back, etc.  In the vast majority of cases, all of these forms send their data to a program on the web server which collects the data and sends someone an email message with the content.  Web form to email.
