What is an eSignature?
An eSignature allows an individual to demonstrate their acceptance of the information presented to them by checking a box, typing their name, inserting an image, or even inserting a recording stating their agreement. You can use Greetly's electronic signature feature to automatically capture legally-binding signatures on legal documents, such as NDAs, waivers, and health questionnaires.
Signature Legal Requirements
In order for an eSignature to be legally binding, it must meet five criteria laid out in the ESIGN Act and the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (UETA).
- Intent to sign - the user must have the option to decline the signature request
- Consent to do business electronically - the user must agree to do business electronically prior to signing
- Clear attribution of signature - attribution can be traced from the signer's email ID to the device IP address to the signature timestamp
- Association of the signature with the record - the signature must be connected to the document
- Record retention - you must be able to produce the signed copy as if it were a printed signature
