Are eSignatures Legal?
Yes, Unless “Expressly Excluded”
“Broadly speaking, electronic commerce legislation is
of general application. This means that it applies to
commercial activities unless those activities are
expressly excluded, or are subject to other legal
provisions that prohibit or regulate the use of
electronic information or electronic documents”
