Questions

Can I add my initials?

Yes. Each saved signature comes with its initials, drawn or typed.

Where are my signatures stored?

On your device. They go to your own iCloud and backups only if you turn that on in the Signature settings, and they are never part of a shared folder.

Is it a digital signature?

No. It's a drawn signature, placed on the page as an image. It isn't a certified digital signature.
