Why do I need to sign the agreement?

Modified on Thu, 13 Mar at 8:31 AM

Agreements, created by Sage and sent to institutions, serve as a contract that formally initiates the order processing and establishes the specific terms and conditions of the sale. These agreements play a crucial role in ensuring clarity and mutual understanding between the institution and Sage regarding the details of the transaction, including pricing, content purchased, copyright regulations, any restrictions and further details. 


By signing the agreement, the institution legally accepts these terms, indicating their willingness to proceed with the order based on the outlined conditions. This formal acceptance is vital because it creates a clear, documented record of the transaction, which both parties can refer to in case of any future misunderstandings or disagreements.


The signed agreement also ensures that both parties are aware of their responsibilities and obligations. It minimizes the risk of confusion or conflicting expectations, as it sets out the agreed-upon terms in a legally binding manner. This legal framework is essential for both parties to have confidence that their rights and obligations will be upheld.


In addition to ensuring the smooth processing of orders, these agreements help protect both parties in the event of any disputes or issues that arise during or after the transaction.
