4. ECN Certificates. The Certificates relied upon in accordance with this Agreement are issued within the ECN. The ECN is a public key infrastructure that provides Certificates for internet and data network applications. eSignTrust is the only service provider within the ECN. The ECN and eSignTrust under this Agreement offer several distinct types ("Types") of certification services, for both the Internet and other networks. Each Type, or level, of Certificate provides specific functionality and security features and corresponds to a specific level of trust. The following subsections state the appropriate uses and authentication procedures for each Type of Certificate. For more detailed information about eSignTrust's certification services, see the eSignTrust CPS.

(i)  eSignTrust Qualified Certificates. This Type of Certificates offers the highest level of assurances within the ECN. The Certificates are issued to natural persons, authorised personnel of organisations or government agencies, and authentication procedures are based on the assurances that the identity and, if applicable, any specific qualifications of the Subscriber is verified requiring personal (physical) presence of the Subscriber before an officer of eSignTrust that confirms the identity and, if applicable, any specific qualifications of the Subscriber using, at minimum, a well-recognised form of government-issued identification with photo and the written confirmation of email address of the Subscriber. In addition, when the Subscriber representing a Subscriber Organisation the Certificate provides assurances based on a confirmation that the Subscriber Organisation does in fact exist, that the organisation has authorised the Certificate Application, and that the person submitting the Certificate Application on behalf of the Subscriber was authorised to do so. This Type of Certificates provides very high degree of assurance for the identity of a Subscriber and is suitable for high value transaction, extremely sensitive information and the need of the verification of the lawful authenticity and validity of Qualified Electronic Signature.

(ii) eSignTrust Normalised Certificates. This Type of Certificates offers the medium level of assurances in comparison with the other two Types (i and iii) within the ECN. The Certificates are issued to natural persons, authorised personnel of organisations or government agencies, and authentication procedures are based on the assurances that the identity of the Subscriber is verified requiring personal (physical) presence of the Subscriber before an officer of eSignTrust that confirms the identity of the Subscriber using, at minimum, a well-recognised form of government-issued identification with photo and the written confirmation of email address of the Subscriber. In addition, when the Subscriber representing a Subscriber Organisation the Certificate provides assurances based on a confirmation that the Subscriber Organisation does in fact exist, that the organisation has authorised the Certificate Application, and that the person submitting the Certificate Application on behalf of the Subscriber was authorised to do so. This Type of Certificates provides medium degree of assurance for the identity of a Subscriber and is suitable for medium-value transaction, sensitive information and legally valid Advanced Electronic Signature.
 
(iii) eSignTrust Encipherment Certificates. This Type of Certificates offers medium level of assurances within the ECN. The Certificates are issued to natural persons, authorised personnel and units of organisations or government agencies, and authentication procedures are based on the assurances that the identity of the Subscriber is verified using, at minimum, a well-recognised form of government-issued identification with photo when the Subscriber is a natural person and the written confirmation of email address of the Subscriber. In addition, when the Subscriber representing a Subscriber Organisation the Certificate provides assurances based on a confirmation that the Subscriber Organisation does in fact exist, that the organisation has authorised the Certificate Application, and that the person submitting the Certificate Application on behalf of the Subscriber was authorised to do so. This Type of Certificates is suitable for the uses of information confidentiality/encryption, of sending encrypted electronic message to the Subscriber/Subscriber Organisation; of permitting the Subscriber/Subscriber Organisation to decrypt messages; of permitting the Subscriber/Subscriber Organisation to acknowledge receipt of the encrypted message by sending an acknowledgement with a digital signature added to it to confirm the identity of the receiving Subscriber/Subscriber Organisation.
 
(iv) eSignTrust Personal Secure Email Certificates. This Type of Certificates offers the lowest level of assurances within the ECN. The Certificates are issued to individual Subscribers only, and authentication procedures are based on assurances that the Subscriber's distinguished name is unique and unambiguous within the domain of a particular CA and that a certain e-mail address is associated with a public key. This Type of Certificates is appropriate for securing e-mail communications with digital signatures and/or encryption, and access control for non-commercial or low-value transactions where proof of identity is unnecessary.

5. Your Obligations. As a Relying Party, you are obligated to:
 
(i) independently assess the appropriateness of the use of a Certificate for any given purpose and determine that the Certificate will, in fact, be used for an appropriate purpose;
 
(ii) utilize the appropriate software and/or hardware to perform digital signature verification or other cryptographic operations you wish to perform, as a condition of relying on a Certificate in connection with each such operation. Such operations include identifying a Certificate Chain and verifying the digital signatures on all Certificates in the Certificate Chain. You agree that you will not rely on a Certificate unless these verification procedures are successful;
 
(iii) check the status of a Certificate on which you wish to rely, as well as all the Certificates in its Certificate Chain. If any of the Certificates in the Certificate Chain have been revoked, you agree that that you will not rely on the end-user Subscriber Certificate or other revoked Certificate in the Certificate Chain; and
 
(iv) rely on the Certificate, if all of the checks described in the previous paragraphs are successful, provided that reliance upon the Certificate is reasonable under the circumstances and in light of Section 3 of this Agreement. If the circumstances indicate a need for additional assurances, it is your responsibility to obtain such assurances for such reliance to be deemed reasonable.
 
6. Limitations on Use. Certificates issued under the ECN are not designed, intended, or authorized for use or resale as control equipment in hazardous circumstances or for uses requiring fail-safe performance such as the operation of nuclear facilities, aircraft navigation or communication systems, air traffic control systems, or weapons control systems, where failure could lead directly to death, personal injury, or severe environmental damage. The private key of an eSignTrust Qualified Certificate shall only be used, according to the conditions specified in the Certificate, to create Qualified Electronic Signature using eSignTrust.s SSCD. The private key of an eSignTrust Normalised Certificate shall only be used, according to the conditions specified in the Certificate, to create Advanced Electronic Signature using means that the signatory can maintain under his sole control. eSignTrust Encipherment Certificates and eSignTrust Personal Secure Email Certificates shall not be used as proof of identity or as support of non-repudiation of identity or authority. eSignTrust, and its CAs and RAs are not responsible for assessing the appropriateness of the use of a Certificate. You agree as a Relying Party that Certificates will not be used or relied upon by you beyond the limitations set forth in this Agreement.
 
7. Compromise of ECN Security. You agree that you shall not monitor, interfere with, or reverse engineer the technical implementation of the ECN, except upon prior written approval from eSignTrust, and shall not otherwise intentionally compromise the security of the ECN.
 
8. Effect of a Certificate. You acknowledge and agree, to the extent permitted by the applicable law, that an Electronic Document susceptible of representation as written declaration and bearing a Qualified Electronic Signature verifiable with reference to a Qualified Certificate has full evidentiary value of the declarations attributed to its signatory. Subject to the applicable law, an electronic signature or transaction entered into with reference to a Certificate shall be effective regardless of the geographic location where the Certificate is issued or the electronic signature created or used, and regardless of the geographic location of the place of business of the CA or Subscriber.
 
9. eSignTrust Warranties. eSignTrust warrants to Relying Parties who reasonably rely on a Certificate
 
(i) that all information in or incorporated by reference in the Certificate, except for Nonverified Subscriber Information, is accurate;

(ii) that Certificates appearing in the Repository have been issued to the individual or organisation named in the Certificate as the Subscriber, and the Subscriber has accepted the Certificate by receiving the Certificate contained in a storage media and signing a receipt of acknowledgement, or by downloading it from a website or via an email message sent to the Subscriber containing the Certificate; and
 
(iii) the entities that approved the Certificate Application and issued the Certificate have substantially complied with the eSignTrust CPS when issuing the Certificate.
