Right, but surely there is a person at the company that you can bring it up with?
I've been working remotely for nearly a decade now, and the majority of contracts I've signed have been in electronic form, and for each of them there has been back and forth about certain items - IP and copyright in particular always coming up - and we go back and forth until the wording and meaning is something both parties are happy with.
Only once that's happened do I need to sign the electronic form - and that's where the negotiating leverage exists, because I don't need to work for someone if they impose conditions on me that I am not willing to accept.
