An electronic signature (e-signature) is a legally binding signature that is created
and transmitted electronically, often using a digital signature or other electronic
authentication method. E-signatures are recognized by law in many countries,
including the United States, Canada, and the European Union.
Yes, e-signatures are secure and legally binding when they meet certain
requirements. For example, the e-signature must be linked to the signer, provide
proof of the signer's identity, and show that the signer intended to sign the
document. Docudash uses industry-standard encryption and security measures to ensure
the integrity and confidentiality of e-signed documents.
E-signatures can be used for a wide range of documents, including contracts,
agreements, NDAs, waivers, and more. However, there are some documents that cannot
be signed using e-signatures, such as wills, trusts, and certain real estate
documents, which may require physical signatures or notarization.
With Docudash E-Signature service, you can upload your document to the platform,
select the recipients who need to sign, and customize the signing order and
workflow. The recipients will receive an email invitation to sign the document, and
they can sign using a variety of methods, including typing, drawing, or uploading a
signature image. Once all signatures are collected, the signed document will be
securely stored and available for download.
