Rationale: The Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (E-Sign or ESIGN) was signed into law by President Clinton on June 30, 2000. E-Sign gives electronic signatures the same legal status as handwritten signatures. From a legal perspective, this means that any contract signed electronically cannot be declared invalid on the basis of an electronic signature (Freeman, 2004).
