, QUESTION 1
Bongi wants to buy a state-of-the-art software program from SEEYOULATER Inc,
which will allow him to superimpose text and images such as company logos and
slogans on the merchandise he sells on his web site. In the process of buying the
software he notices on the terms and conditions of SEEYOULATER Inc’s web site
that there are no refunds for anything purchased via the web site. The contract is
concluded by clicking on an icon stating: “Submit Order”. Bongi is then routed to a
web page that states that he has successfully purchased the software package.
The software package is sent automatically as soon as the order is confirmed.
After Bongi receives the software package on his system it is evident that the
software package is defective and not in working order. In answering the
questions below you should substantiate your answers with authoritative sources.
Advise Bongi on the following:
(a) Whether the requirements of an electronic signature have been met by
clicking on the icon “submit order”. (10)
The concept of electronic signatures is governed by various laws and
regulations, which vary by country or region. To determine whether the
requirements of an electronic signature have been met by clicking on the
icon "Submit Order" in Bongi's case, we need to consider the legal
framework applicable in his jurisdiction. As of my last update in September
2021, I'll provide a general understanding of electronic signatures, but it's
essential for Bongi to seek legal advice specific to his location.
In many countries, electronic signatures are legally recognized as valid and
enforceable in electronic transactions, provided they meet specific criteria.
These criteria often include:
1. Intent to Sign: The individual must intend to sign the document
electronically. In this case, by clicking on the "Submit Order" icon, Bongi
demonstrates his intention to proceed with the purchase.
2. Association of Signature: The electronic signature must be logically
associated with the document or transaction. Clicking the "Submit Order"
