2 mins read

The legal terms give the users legal disclosures, terms, and conditions before they can continue with the actual signing process. The legal term added is not just to inform but also to get approval for the terms beforehand. BoldSign allows users to add legal terms as per their requirements. The user can define their own custom legal terms and get the signer’s approval before proceeding with the signing process. The option for adding custom legal terms is available under the Branding section, and it is accessible only to the account administrators.

Defining the custom legal terms

  • Click on Branding on the Settings menu to go to the Manage Brands page.
  • On the Manage brands page, click on the Create New Brand button.

Create new brand option

  • You will be taken to the Create New Brand page. On the General section, add Brand Name, logo, and color, then switch to the Advanced section.
  • You can see the Custom Legal Terms option at the bottom of the branding page. Enable that option.
  • Add a title in the title box to display during the signing process. The title you add here will appear as a link text during the signing process, along with the terms and conditions of BoldSign.
