Electronic Signature Disclosure
This disclosure is for people asked to sign a document through AppliFlo. The sender (the person or organisation that sent you the document) uses AppliFlo to request your signature. AppliFlo provides the software. It is not a party to your document.
Please read this before you agree to use electronic records and signatures. You agree by ticking the consent box on the signing page.
1. What you are agreeing to
You agree to receive, review and sign this document, and related notices from the sender for the same transaction, electronically instead of on paper. You also agree that your electronic signature is the legal equivalent of your handwritten signature on this document.
This consent applies only to the document you are signing now and records related to it, unless the sender tells you otherwise.
2. Paper copies
You may ask the sender for a paper copy of any document at any time. There is no fee from AppliFlo. If the sender charges a fee, it must tell you. You can also download and print the document yourself before and after you sign.
3. Withdrawing your consent
You may withdraw your consent before you sign. To do so, select Decline to sign on the signing page, or contact the sender directly. Withdrawing consent does not affect the validity of anything you have already signed electronically. The sender may then need to deal with you on paper, which may slow things down.
4. Keeping your details up to date
If your email address changes, tell the sender so it can send documents to the right address. AppliFlo cannot change your email address on the sender’s behalf.
5. What you need
- A current version of Chrome, Edge, Safari or Firefox on a computer, tablet or phone
- An email account and an internet connection
- A PDF viewer to open and save your signed copy, and a printer or storage if you want to keep a copy
By consenting, you confirm that you can open and read this disclosure and the document on your device. If these requirements change in a way that could stop you accessing your records, we will tell you before you sign again.
6. Your copy
When everyone has signed, you will receive an email with a link to the completed document and its certificate of completion. Save a copy for your records. Signing links expire, and the sender controls how long the document is kept.
7. The law
In the United States, electronic signatures are recognised under the federal ESIGN Act and state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. In Australia, they are recognised under the Electronic Transactions Act 1999 (Cth) and equivalent state and territory laws. Some documents still require a handwritten signature, a witness or other formalities. It is the sender’s responsibility to decide whether this document can be signed electronically. If you are unsure, ask the sender or get independent advice before you sign.
8. Questions
For questions about the document, contact the sender. For technical problems with the signing page, email support@appliflo.com. If you think the request is fraudulent, don’t sign. Forward it to abuse@appliflo.com.
