eSign Feature Terms of Use

Last Updated: February 2022

Subscription to the Services includes access to the Customer and its Authorized Users to HiBob’s “eSign” feature. If you choose to use HiBob’s eSign Feature (as defined below), you hereby acknowledge and agree to the terms stated in in these terms, which are in addition and subject to the terms separately agreed by you (the Customer or authorized User, respectively) and HiBob.

Each time you sign a document using the eSign Feature you agree to use of the feature for purposes of executing such a document in electronic transmission. If you are using the eSign Feature for executing a specific document your consent applies to the subject matter of that particular document.

An Authorized User may choose not to use the eSign Feature. If chosen to sign the document through alternative means, such as manually, then do not use the eSign Feature to send the document to the other party.

HiBob provides you with the option to download and print a paper copy of the executed document. If you later revoke your consent to use of the eSign Feature, please notify the sender and stop using the eSign Feature. PLEASE NOTE THE DECISION TO STOP USING THE ESIGN FEATURE DOES NOT APPLY FOR DOCUMENTS THAT YOU HAVE PREVIOUSLY EXECUTED USING THE ESIGN FEATURE.

Once a document signed electronically using the eSign Feature all rights and duties set forth in the document are solely of the signing parties. HiBob is not part of such documents and has no responsibility for the accuracy, validity, or compliance of the document. Furthermore, HiBob has no responsibility for the legal or illegal aspects of the document or any disputes that arise related thereto.

ANY STATEMENT HEREIN OR ELSEWHERE REGARDING THE VALIDITY OF ELECTRONIC SIGNATURE ARE FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. THEY ARE GENERAL IN SCOPE AND SHOULD NOT BE CONSTRUED AS LEGAL ADVICE. HIBOB SHALL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ENSURING THE DOCUMENTS ELECTRONICALLY SIGNED USING THE ESIGN FEATURE ARE VALID OR ENFORCEABE UNDER APPLICABLE LOCAL LAWS. YOU SHOULD CONSULT YOUR LEGAL ADVISOR REGARDING THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THE DOCUMENTS THAT WILL BE SIGNED USING THE ESIGN FEATURE.

The eSign Feature is valid under eIDAS regulation. However, please note that this is not a digital signature service. Digital signatures are codes embedded in files, to detect unauthorized changes to data and to verify the identity of the signee. They usually rely on encryption technology, which ensures that a document or a file has not been copied or altered without authorization. The eSign Feature, on the other hand, is only a way to indicate consent/approval or acknowledgment. Please note that the eSign Feature may not be legally enforceable in certain jurisdictions. Customer should assess the legality and enforceability of the use of this feature in their applicable jurisdictions.
