Are Online Waivers Legal? Waiver Laws by State, Province and Country

Are Online Waivers Legal? Waiver Laws by State, Province and Country

If you run a trampoline park, climbing gym, tour company, camp or event, you have probably heard two things: that waivers "don't hold up anyway," and that a waiver signed on a tablet or phone might not count. This guide covers both questions, with a summary for every US state and Canadian province and links to the laws and court decisions behind each one.

This guide is general information, with links to the statutes and cases, so you and your attorney can look into anything that applies to your business.

The short answer. A waiver signed electronically counts as signed in every US state, every Canadian province, the UK and the EU. Whether the waiver itself protects you depends on where you operate. In most US states, courts generally enforce a clearly written waiver for recreational activities. A few states and provinces restrict them sharply, and the rules for minors vary a lot.

Two Separate Questions

People often mix these up, so it helps to keep them apart:

  1. Is an electronic signature valid? Almost always yes. E-signature laws say a signature or contract can't be refused legal effect just because it's electronic.
  2. Is the waiver enforceable? That's a question about the waiver's content, the activity, who signed it and local law. A paper waiver and an electronic waiver with the same wording are treated the same way. Signing online doesn't make a weak waiver strong, and it doesn't make a strong one weak.

Electronic Signatures Are Valid Everywhere We Cover

  • United States. The federal ESIGN Act (15 U.S.C. 7001) says a signature or contract "may not be denied legal effect, validity, or enforceability solely because it is in electronic form." Every state has its own law too: 49 states and Washington, D.C. have adopted the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (UETA), Illinois most recently in 2021. New York uses its own Electronic Signatures and Records Act. US e-signature guide
  • Canada. Each province has an electronic commerce or electronic transactions act. The common-law provinces based theirs on the Uniform Electronic Commerce Act; Quebec has its own information technology act. Canada e-signature guide
  • United Kingdom. Electronic signatures are recognized by statute and by the courts. UK e-signature guide
  • European Union. The eIDAS Regulation says an electronic signature can't be refused as evidence just because it's electronic. EU e-signature guide

What Courts Usually Look At in a Waiver

The details differ from place to place, but the same themes come up in court decisions again and again:

  • Clear, plain language. Courts read unclear wording against the business that wrote it. Many states want the waiver to say plainly that it releases claims for the business's own negligence, and some require the word "negligence" itself.
  • A document people can actually see and read. A clear title, readable text and a signature tied to the release, not buried in fine print on a receipt.
  • The kind of activity. Courts are more willing to enforce waivers for optional recreation than for essential services such as medical care.
  • What's being waived. Almost nowhere lets a business waive liability for gross negligence, recklessness or intentional harm.
  • Who signed. A parent signing for a child is the area where the law differs most. Some states enforce parental waivers, some allow them only by statute or for certain activities, and many common-law provinces don't enforce them.
  • Proof of who signed what, and when. If a waiver is challenged, you need to produce the signed copy and show it matches the person.

Why Waivers Are Worth Having

In most US states, a well-written waiver can lead a court to dismiss an ordinary negligence claim before trial. Even where releases are limited, a signed waiver is still a record that you explained the risks of the activity and your rules, and that the guest agreed to them. Depending on the jurisdiction, that record can matter to defenses like assumption of risk, and it's the usual way to collect medical information, emergency contacts and photo consent. Several states also have inherent-risk laws for activities like skiing and horseback riding that depend on posted warnings or written notice. Each guide below covers what applies there.

Waiver Law by Canadian Province

Canadian courts look at waivers using the framework from the Supreme Court of Canada's 2010 decision in Tercon Contractors v. British Columbia. Provincial consumer protection and occupiers' liability laws and the rules for minors differ, and Quebec's Civil Code works quite differently.

How WaiverFile Helps

The law and your agreement's wording decide what a waiver can do. Once your agreement is written, WaiverFile makes it easy for every guest to sign it and keeps a complete, easy-to-find record of each one:

  • Guests sign before they arrive from their own phone or computer, by a link sent by email or text, a QR code or your website, or on a tablet at your front desk.
  • Each signed waiver stores the signature, every answer, the date and time, and for online signing the IP address and device used. You can add a photo of each signer or of their ID.
  • Initial boxes inside the agreement text and required checkboxes for individual rules show the guest saw each key point.
  • Parents sign for themselves and their children on one form, with each child's name and date of birth.
  • HIPAA features add extra protection for health information you collect.
  • Find any waiver in seconds by name or date, or download them in bulk as a ZIP file for any date range, instead of searching boxes of paper.

Start with one of our free waiver templates, have your attorney review it for your state, and set up a free account to start collecting signatures.
