IANAL but in the common law world a contract requires 3 things:
* Offer and acceptance
* Consideration (something of value)
* An intention to form legal relations.
Acceptance is, of course, what a signature signifies. Acceptance is "a matter of fact" and thus in reality pretty much anything will do.
- TheNewsIsHere 3y agoYeah, it’s not like in the spirit of the law you can perform your part of the contract and then get away with saying “I never agreed”. In the US, we have a federal law that covers electronic contract signing. I believe it’s part of the UCC? (I’m not an attorney, and that area isn’t one I practice with in tech either.)
