Read a random definition: coram non judice

A quick definition of electronic contract:

An electronic contract is an agreement made through electronic means, such as email or computer programs. It can be made between two or more people or between electronic agents. The rules for forming and governing an e-contract are provided by the Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act. Traditional contract principles and remedies usually apply to e-contracts. In simple terms, an e-contract is like a regular contract, but it's made using technology.

A more thorough explanation:

An electronic contract, also known as an e-contract, is a type of contract that is formed through electronic means, such as email or computer programs. It can be created through the interaction of two or more individuals, an individual with an electronic agent, or at least two electronic agents that recognize the existence of a contract.

For example, when you purchase something online, you may be required to agree to the terms and conditions of the sale by clicking a button. This is an example of a point-and-click agreement, which is a type of e-contract.

The Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act provides rules for the formation, governance, and basic terms of an e-contract. Traditional contract principles and remedies usually apply to e-contracts.

Overall, an electronic contract is a legally binding agreement that is formed through electronic means.
