FAQs
1. What's the difference between an online signature, electronic signature, and digital signature?
While these terms are often used interchangeably, they have slightly different meanings:
- Online Signature: This refers to any signature created through digital means, encompassing both electronic and digital signatures. The signature created with Papersign’s free online signature generator is categorised as an online signature.
- Electronic Signature: A broad term covering various methods of signing documents digitally. It can include images of signatures, clicking "I Agree," or typing your name as a signature.
- Digital Signature: A specific type of electronic signature that uses encryption to ensure the authenticity, integrity, and security of the document. It involves a cryptographic process and is more secure than a simple electronic signature.
