Using Electronic Signatures on Good Dog

Good Dog provides electronic signature functionality for contracts between breeders and buyers. Before using this feature, please review your rights and how electronic signatures work.

Your electronic signature has the same legal effect as a handwritten signature under the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (E-SIGN Act) and applicable state laws.

What You're Consenting To

By using electronic signatures on Good Dog, you consent to:

  • Sign contracts electronically through the Good Dog platform
  • Receive and access contracts in electronic form
  • Have Good Dog capture and store information about your signatures

Information We Capture

For each signature, Good Dog records:

  • Your name as you type it
  • Your email address
  • The date and time you signed
  • Your IP address and device information

This information verifies the authenticity of signatures and maintains document integrity.

Access to Signed Documents

All signed contracts are stored securely in your Good Dog Dashboard. You can:

  • View contracts anytime while your account is active
  • Download contracts as PDF files
  • Print contracts for your records
  • Access contracts for at least 7 years after signing

Paper Copies

You can download and print signed contracts from your Dashboard at any time at no charge. Downloaded documents are provided in PDF format suitable for printing. There are no fees to access, download, or retain electronic documents.

You may withdraw your consent to use electronic signatures at any time by emailing help@gooddog.com.

If you withdraw consent:

  • You will no longer be able to use electronic signatures on Good Dog
  • Any pending signature requests will be canceled
  • You will still have access to previously signed documents
