# What is an Electronic Record and Signature Disclosure?

## **What is an Electronic Record and Signature Disclosure? How does it apply to our customers?**

LegalZoom requires signers to agree to an [Electronic Record and Signature Disclosure and Agreement to Do Business Electronically](https://docs.esign.legalzoom.com/electronic-record-and-signature-disclosure-and-agreement.pdf) in order to use eSignature. If you plan to use eSignature to conduct transactions with persons who qualify as “consumers” under applicable law, then you may need to comply with certain requirements set forth in the Electronic Record and Signature Disclosure, such as allowing consumers to request paper copies of documents. If you have any questions about how to use electronic signatures when doing business with consumers, ask an attorney.

If you determine you are required to provide an electronic record and signature disclosure, you should read the document carefully to understand your rights and responsibilities.
