With regard to the use of electronic signatures, generally speaking, enterprises can create electronic signatures through a formal third-party electronic signature platform. Because the electronic signature is composed of the graphic seal/hand-drawn signature displayed at the front end and the CA digital certificate at the back end. According to Article 16 of the Electronic Signature Law, if the electronic signature needs third-party authentication, the legally established electronic authentication service provider shall provide authentication services. That is, if enterprises want to use electronic signatures, they need to obtain CA certificates issued by CA institutions.
and the third-party electronic signature platform, in cooperation with CA institutions, users can issue certificates after completing identity authentication. When users apply for electronic signature on a qualified third-party platform, they will also apply for a digital certificate, and the user's signature will use this digital certificate. Therefore, the applied electronic signature is safe and reliable, which ensures that the electronic contract has legal effect after signing.
in the third-party electronic signature platform, the process of using electronic signature is as follows:
1. Create an electronic signature
After the platform completes the registration and passes the enterprise identity authentication, the user will get the exclusive electronic signature and electronic seal. In addition, according to their own needs, users can also create and set electronic seals by uploading and customizing the seal template locally.
