What is the e signature

An e signature, or electronic signature, is a digital representation of a person's intent to agree to the contents of a document. It serves the same legal purpose as a handwritten signature but is created and stored electronically. eSignatures can be applied to various types of documents, including contracts, agreements, and forms, making them a versatile tool for businesses and individuals alike. The use of e signatures streamlines the signing process, allowing for faster transactions and improved efficiency in document management.

How to use the e signature

Using an e signature involves a straightforward process. First, upload the document that requires signing to the airSlate SignNow platform. Next, specify where signatures are needed by placing signature fields within the document. You can then send the document for signature to the intended recipients via email. Once they receive the document, they can easily fill it out and sign it electronically. After all parties have signed, the completed document is securely stored and can be downloaded or shared as needed.

Legal use of the e signature

eSignatures are legally recognized in the United States under the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce (ESIGN) Act and the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (UETA). These laws establish that electronic signatures hold the same weight as traditional handwritten signatures, provided certain conditions are met. For an e signature to be valid, it must be created with the signer's consent, be associated with the signed document, and allow for the identification of the signer. Understanding these legal frameworks ensures that users can confidently utilize e signatures in their business transactions.
