IT Act 2000 Legal Framework.
Affynk’s commercial execution and digital signature workflows are designed to meet the rigorous electronic verification standards set by the Information Technology Act, 2000. We ensure your business communications are secure, verifiable, and backed by comprehensive corporate governance records.
01. Legal Enforceability Framework (Section 5)
In accordance with Section 5 of the Information Technology Act, 2000, electronic approval and digital authentication hold the same legal weight as traditional handwritten physical signatures when executed within designated verification guidelines.
"Where any law provides that information or any other matter shall be authenticated by affixing the signature... such requirement shall be deemed to have been satisfied, if such information or matter is authenticated by means of an electronic signature affixed in such manner as may be prescribed..."
Affynk operates as a secure intermediary business solution. We provide the comprehensive infrastructure needed to authenticate commercial identity, lock final deal terms, and protect the end-to-end audit visibility required to fulfill this central statute.
02. Enforceable Corporate Records (Section 65B)
To guarantee that your contracts and business logs stand up in standard commercial disputes under Section 65B of the Indian Evidence Act, Affynk automatically compiles a comprehensive, tamper-evident corporate audit summary for every transaction.
Identity Verification Track
Signatory identities are validated through dual-layer email authentication, optional secure mobile verification, precise timeline matching, and institutional access logs.
Document Integrity Controls
Once finalized, documents are secured with a protective digital seal. Any unauthorized alteration attempts instantly invalidate the transaction records.
03. Corporate Governance & Data Standards (DPDP)
To support the risk management and compliance strategies of modern enterprise users, our platform aligns seamlessly with the current data privacy and local storage guidelines of the Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act.
Localized Infrastructure Commitments
As a local Mumbai-based ecosystem player, our core database tables, document histories, and transaction audit trails are natively processed, isolated, and stored within secure cloud infrastructure regions right here in Mumbai, India.
04. Statutory Boundaries & Restrictions
While our system perfectly supports 95% of standard daily B2B corporate operations (including Non-Disclosure Agreements, master service contracts, and vendor terms), Schedule I of the IT Act, 2000 specifies distinct exceptions where paper-based alternatives remain mandatory.
