Write notes on the following: (b) Click-wrap or Web-wrap Agreements

Answer & Explanation:

Generally the basic forms of e-contracts are the Click-wrap or Web-wrap Agreements; the Shrink-wrap Agreements; the Electronic Data Interchange or (EDI). These are the agreements which we generally come across while surfing internet such as "I AGREE" to the terms or "I DISAGREE" to the above conditions. A click-wrap agreement is mostly found as part of the installation process of software packages. It is also called a "click through" agreement or click-wrap license. Click-wrap agreements can be of the following types: Type and Click where the user must type "I accept" or other specified words in an on-screen box and then click a "Submit" or similar button. This displays acceptance of the terms of the contract. A user cannot proceed to download or view the target information without following these steps. Icon Clicking where the user must click on an "OK" or "I agree" button on a dialog box or pop-up window. A user indicates rejection by clicking "Cancel" or closing the window. Upon rejection, the user can no longer use or purchase the product or service. A click wrap contract is a "take-it-or-leave-it" type of contract that lacks bargaining power.
