Digital signatures via DocuSign
Contracts must be legally binding, and for this they need legally valid signatures. Therefore, all contract partners used to have to sign on paper documents. This often was time-consuming when those partners were located in different corners of the country or even on different continents. This problem is solved by the electronic signature from DocuSign: it allows contracts to be provided digitally, countersigned by electronic signature - with ease at any time and from any location - and the agreements to be archived.
This is how the electronic signature works
The procedure is simple. The contract is uploaded as a PDF at the sender's and the signature, text and date fields are placed at the required location. Once "Send" is clicked, DocuSign sends a link by email to the recipient, allowing them to access the document. Simple instructions guide the recipient through the signature process. Sign and click on "finish" - and the signed document is saved.
