What is Your Roles?
TezSign has five distinct roles: Approver, Signer, Observer, Witness, and Delegator.
Each role has specific responsibilities and takes individual actions as part of the document signing process:
- Approver: The Approver reviews and gives their approval to the document before it is signed. This role is crucial for ensuring that all necessary checks and reviews have been completed. The Approver's action indicates that the document meets all required standards and is ready for signing.
- Signer: The Signer is responsible for officially signing the document. This person has the authority to enter into the agreement or approve the document's contents. The Signer's action is critical as it formalizes the document.
- Observer: The Observer monitors the signing process without actively participating in it. This role is typically used for individuals who need to be aware of the signing process and its progress but do not have the authority or need to sign the document themselves.
- Witness: The Witness verifies the signing process and attests to its authenticity. This person ensures that the document was signed by the correct individuals and can confirm the validity of the signatures if questioned later. The Witness's presence adds an additional layer of security and legitimacy to the document.
- Delegator: The Delegator assigns signing responsibilities to other individuals. This role is important in situations where the primary signer cannot sign the document themselves. The Delegator ensures that the signing process continues smoothly by delegating authority to appropriate individuals.
Each role plays a unique and essential part in the document signing process, ensuring that the document is thoroughly reviewed, appropriately signed, and fully authenticated.
