How e-signature works on Terms of Business

Signature, IP address, timestamp, document version — captured as evidence on every signed ToB.


Category: Terms of Business

When you send a Terms of Business to a client, they get a unique link to a signing page. They draw or type their signature, click Sign, and we capture the evidence stack:


  • The signature image they drew or typed
  • The IP address they signed from
  • The exact timestamp (UTC) of the signature
  • The full document version they were shown, snapshotted at send time


The signed PDF is generated server-side and stored against the client. You can re-download it any time from the ToB record.


Is this legally binding?


In the UK, e-signatures are recognised under the Electronic Communications Act 2000 and the eIDAS Regulation. The evidence stack we capture is what an enforcement court would look at if a signed ToB was ever disputed. We are not your solicitor — if you need formal confirmation for a specific clause type, ask one.
