To develop a web application for sending documents via email for signature and
allowing recipients to sign the document electronically (e.g., via mouse draw or upload
sign image), you'll need to adhere to several standards and best practices to ensure
legality, security, and usability. Here's a guideline:
Clearly state the terms of service and privacy policy of your application, outlining
how electronic signatures are handled, stored, and protected.
Ensure that only authorized users can view and sign documents. Use role-based
access control if necessary.
• Consent: Obtain the consent of all parties involved in the electronic signature
process. Make sure that each party understands and agrees to use electronic
signatures for the document in question.
Design an intuitive and user-friendly interface for both sending and signing
documents. Consider the user experience when navigating through the
document and signing process.
Provide clear instructions and guidance for users on how to sign documents
electronically using mouse draw or uploading a signature image.
• Document Handling: Develop functionality to upload PDF documents securely
to the application. Implement features to allow users to view the document
online, scroll through its pages, and zoom in/out for better readability.
• Electronic Signature Capture: Provide tools for users to electronically sign the
document, including options for mouse draw signature or uploading a signature
image. Ensure that the signature capture process produces a legally binding
electronic signature that complies with relevant laws and regulations.
• Audit Trail and Document Tracking: Maintain detailed audit trails that track
the entire electronic signature process, including who signed the document,
when it was signed, and any actions taken during the signing process. This helps
ensure transparency and accountability.
Ensure that email communications are encrypted and comply with privacy
regulations.
Comply with data protection laws such as GDPR (in the EU) and CCPA (in
California, U.S.).
