:doc:`Odoo Sign <../sign>` is your trusted partner for secure, efficient, and legally compliant electronic signatures in
|
||||
Australia.
|
||||
|
||||
Legal framework for electronic signatures in Australia
|
||||
======================================================
|
||||
|
||||
In Australia, electronic signatures are regulated under the `Electronic Transactions Act (ETA)
|
||||
<https://www.legislation.gov.au/C2004A00553/latest/text>`_, the `Electronic Transactions Regulations (ETR) <https://www.legislation.wa.gov.au/legislation/prod/filestore.nsf/FileURL/mrdoc_23907.pdf/$FILE/Electronic%20Transactions%20Regulations%202012%20-%20%5B00-a0-04%5D.pdf?OpenElement>`_
|
||||
and local regulations in each state. The law governs transactions performed through electronic means and the use of
|
||||
electronic signatures. The key points of the law include:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Legal recognition**: electronic signatures are legally equivalent to handwritten signatures if they meet certain
|
||||
criteria.
|
||||
- **Reliability and security**: electronic signatures must be created with a secure method that can reliably identify
|
||||
the signatory and ensure the integrity of the signed document.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
