An online signing or acknowledgement control for permissions, approvals, or confirmation.
When To Use
| Use | Avoid |
|---|---|
| An online signing or acknowledgement control for permissions, approvals, or confirmation. | Avoid using this component when the content has a different job or needs a simpler plain-text treatment. |
| Use real form controls with visible labels, help text, validation, input purpose, keyboard access, and clear submit behaviour. | Avoid changing approved colours, typography, logo artwork, or class names to create a local style guide. |
| Use the starter markup as a copy/paste baseline for websites, Ghost HTML blocks, generated pages, or print previews. | Avoid copying placeholder IDs, links, contact details, or image paths without replacing them. |
Example
Typing your name confirms the declaration above.

Review Notes
Web
Use real form controls with visible labels, help text, validation, input purpose, keyboard access, and clear submit behaviour.
Do not send online controls straight to paper. Use a separate reviewed print pattern when the final material is filled out by hand.
States And Variants
Document required, optional, error, success, disabled, focus, and read-only states.
Checklist
- Brand colours, typography, and logo use are inherited from the approved master brand.
- The first-read message or action is clear.
- Labels, headings, links, and alternative text are meaningful.
- Keyboard focus, colour contrast, and reading order are covered where the component is interactive.
- The component survives its final output: mobile, desktop, Ghost CMS, A4 print, poster, signage, or email.
