How this pattern works
- Place the pattern underneath the accordions on the review section. Do not hide this component inside an accordion.
- Signature pattern does not exist in every form. If your form needs a certification statement or statement of truth, we recommend using this pattern.
- When using this pattern, do not add the privacy policy checkbox at the end of the form. The user does not need to check another checkbox for privacy policy.
