Electronic signatures can include: Clicking ?I Agree? (or similar wording) on a website to consent to terms and conditions or receive services. Signing with your finger on a mobile device. Typing your name and/or PIN into an online form.

Electronic signatures are legally recognized in Canada (Alberta, British Columbia, Ontario, and Quebec) and are provided for at the federal level by the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (?PIPEDA?), as well as by provincial specific legislation in each of the provinces and territories.

In 2000, the U.S. federal government passed the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (ESIGN), which in tandem with the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (UETA) confirms that electronic signatures constitute legally binding documents if all parties choose to sign digitally.

What is the difference between a signature stamp and an electronic signature? The ESIGN Act is lacking in clarifying what distinguishes an e-stamp from an electronic signature. However, it is widely thought that stamps are more trusted by businesses and legal entities.

As discussed in subsection 2.1, an e-signature is any electronic representation where: the identity of the individual signing the data can be associated with the electronic data being signed. the intent of the individual in signing the electronic record is conveyed in some way.

Are Signature Stamps Legal? The short answer is; yes, you can generally use signature stamps as a legal authorizing mark. So long as your stamp is intentionally used and validated by you or an authorized representative you appoint, a signature stamp can serve as a legal form of signing.

Effective immediately, the CRA will recognize electronic signatures as having met the signature requirements of the Income Tax Act.
