Congress passed the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act ("E-Sign") in June 2000. E-Sign is a federal law validating the use of electronic signatures, electronic records and electronic agents. E-sign applies "with respect to any transaction in or affecting interstate or foreign commerce. ... However, E-Sign does not apply to legal instruments involving personal matters such as wills, adoption, divorce or to the Uniform Commercial Code other than sections 1107 and 1-206 and Articles 2 and 2A. ...
Under E-Sign, an electronic signature is defined as "an electronic sound, symbol or process attached to or logically associated with a contract or other record and executed or adopted by a person with the intent to sign the record", such as clicking an "I Accept" button.
