Pioneer, Long Electronic Signature History
Orion is one of the pioneers in the electronic signature industry with its first successful implementation in 1991. With a proven track record with of more than 20 years of industry experience generating secure, legally enforceable, electronic rental agreements and transactions, our customers can be assured that their paperless implementations are rock solid.
When choosing how to implement your paperless strategy, there WILL be a certain amount of risk you will undertake simply because that solution may be new and unproven. That risk could translate into loss. What will happen if your implementation doesn’t hold up in court? If all of the electronically signed documents and/agreements that you created suddenly become invalid? If your internal IT process is not legal? If your customer process is not legal? If you violate industry patents? If you do not secure customer personal information and there is a leak/hack/theft? No one wants this sort of disaster or publicity. This is why businesses chose Orion.
Deep Industry Experience with Legal Compliance Requirements
With the signing of the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (ESIGN) in 2000, a movement toward paperless transactions (electronic documents and signatures) that had begun years before was formally recognized by the US government. While the ESIGN Act provides clear endorsement of electronic records and signatures in most industries, it does not govern all industries, nor does it address newer privacy laws, identity theft guidelines or other industry specific regulations that exist and continue to evolve. As a leading provider of electronic signature and other biometric software solutions, Orion Systems has developed a deep understanding of the requirements for legal enforceability of electronic signatures and contracts, as well as a thorough knowledge of the transaction, business and other processes that direct it. Through ongoing research and development, Orion has become an expert authority on using and securing electronic records of all types – legally binding contracts, leases, loans, HIPAA forms, consumer transactions and personal information documents among them.
