Electronic Signatures with Hardware Biometric Verification
Understand the legal validity, cryptographic security, and evidentiary standards that power SignSenders OTP + WebAuthn contract signing.
How do electronic signatures work on SignSenders?
SignSenders captures electronic signatures through a secure web portal protected by out-of-band 6-digit OTP verification and WebAuthn biometric authentication (Face ID, Touch ID, Windows Hello). Upon signing, the system compiles a sealed PDF document stamped with a cryptographic SHA-256 hash digest, client IP address, UTC timestamp, and biometric credential metadata, creating an immutable audit certificate.
- Recognized under IT Act 2000 (Section 10A)
- WebAuthn Biometric Verification (Face ID / Touch ID / Windows Hello)
- Cryptographic proof binding device biometric to document hash
- Audit trail includes Credential ID, AAGUID, and signature algorithm
Important Product Scope: SignSenders facilitates contract creation and electronic signing. It does not replace notarization for real estate or wills, replace Aadhaar eSign or digital signature certificates (DSC), provide formal legal representation.
The 4 Pillars of Evidentiary Enforceability
How SignSenders establishes authenticity, biometric proof, intent, and integrity for every contract.
1. Signer Intent
Explicit affirmation and signature confirmation ensure the client intended to execute the agreement.
2. OTP Auth
Out-of-band 6-digit OTP links the signature to the recipient via their verified WhatsApp or phone channel.
3. WebAuthn Biometrics
Face ID / Touch ID cryptographic proof bound to the document hash prevents signature repudiation.
4. SHA-256 Integrity
Cryptographic hash digest seals the PDF, exposing any subsequent document modification immediately.
