Use Cases

1. Contract Signing: Businesses often deal with contracts that require signatures from multiple parties. Using digital signatures in Google Docs streamlines the process, allowing all parties to sign the document remotely without the need for printing, scanning, or mailing physical copies.

2. Approval Workflows: In organizations with approval workflows, digital signatures can be used to sign off on various documents, such as purchase orders, project proposals, or budget requests. This expedites the approval process and maintains an audit trail of who approved each step.

3. Legal Agreements: Lawyers and legal professionals can use digital signatures in Google Docs for drafting and signing legal agreements, like non-disclosure agreements (NDAs), client contracts, and partnership agreements. This ensures the documents are legally binding and authentic.

4. HR Documents: Human resources departments often require signatures on documents like employment contracts, offer letters, and performance evaluations. Digital signatures simplify the signing process for both HR and employees, even if they are working remotely.

5. Academic Collaboration: Students and researchers working on collaborative projects can use digital signatures in Google Docs to sign research papers, group assignments, and academic agreements. This helps ensure the integrity of the work and the contribution of each participant.

6. Client Approvals: Professionals in creative fields, such as graphic designers, can share drafts and proofs with clients through Google Docs. Clients can then provide their digital signatures to approve the design, eliminating the need for back-and-forth emails or physical signatures.
