Electronic consent
Definition
Electronic consent is the expression of a person's will, expressed digitally, to accept terms or sign a document. To have evidentiary value, this consent must be free, specific, informed and unambiguous, in accordance with the GDPR. In a signature workflow, clicking "Sign" constitutes the signatory's electronic consent.
