About this signature
Simple electronic signature under India's Information Technology Act, 2000. We record your typed name, your agreement, IP address, time, and a SHA-256 fingerprint of this exact document. It is not Aadhaar eSign or a certified digital signature.
What is recorded
When you sign, Client Kit stores the name you typed, the email you entered, the time (server clock, UTC), your IP address and browser identifier, the fact that you ticked the agreement box, and a SHA-256 fingerprint of the exact document you saw. The document is frozen at that moment: the freelancer cannot edit it afterwards, and any later change to the job is a separate change request with its own signature and its own fingerprint that links back to the original.
If the freelancer turned on email verification, we also record that a one-time code sent to your email was entered correctly before signing. The code itself is never stored or shown to anyone.
Why
These details create a record that both of you agreed to the same scope, price and payment terms. Either side can download the signed PDF from the same page at any time. The freelancer can also download a Proof Pack with the full timeline of the job.
What it is not
This is a simple electronic signature. It is not Aadhaar eSign and not a certified digital signature issued by a licensed certifying authority. Don't use Client Kit for documents the law requires to be signed on paper or with a certified signature (for example wills, powers of attorney, trusts, negotiable instruments other than cheques, or contracts for the sale of immovable property).
Money
Client Kit does not receive, hold or process payments. You pay the freelancer directly by UPI, bank transfer or their own payment gateway account. When you tell us you paid, the freelancer confirms it in their own bank app. We never mark a payment as verified.
