What is the electronic signature

An electronic signature, often referred to as eSignature, is a digital representation of a person's intent to agree to the contents of a document. This method of signing is legally recognized in the United States, allowing individuals and businesses to sign contracts, agreements, and other important documents electronically. By using an electronic signature, users can streamline their workflows, reduce paper usage, and enhance the efficiency of their document management processes.

How to use the electronic signature

Using an electronic signature with airSlate SignNow is straightforward. First, upload the document you need to sign. Once uploaded, you can fill out any necessary fields, such as names, dates, or other required information. After completing the document, you can insert your electronic signature by clicking on the designated area. If you need others to sign, you can easily send the document for their signature via email. This process ensures that all parties can review and sign the document securely and efficiently.

Legal use of the electronic signature

In the United States, electronic signatures are governed by laws such as 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 legal weight as traditional handwritten signatures, provided that both parties consent to use electronic methods. It is essential for users to ensure that their electronic signature process complies with these regulations to maintain the enforceability of signed documents.
