1. A secure document portal system that provides a recipient remote access to electronic documents, the system comprising one or more computing devices including one or more processors and memories containing program code for execution by the one or more processors, the one or more computing devices configured to:
receive personally identifiable information about the recipient, and metadata about one or more electronic documents;
generate a retrieval code, wherein the retrieval code is specific to the recipient and/or specific to the electronic documents; and
cause the retrieval code to be
embedded or encoded in a URL, a QR code, and/or other machine-readable code, and
displayed on a delivery notice page or device separate from the electronic documents for delivery without proof of service to the recipient;
at a later time:
receive, from a user, input including the retrieval code;
verify, in response to receiving the input, that the user is the recipient; and
provide the recipient, where email is not valid service, pre-delivery remote access to view the electronic documents, wherein the metadata allows the one or more computing devices to retrieve the electronic documents to provide the recipient the pre-delivery remote access to view the electronic documents.
