Practical guide

How to manage all contracts in one application?

Short answer

  1. 11. Create an account on 4mycontracts.net.
  2. 22. Upload existing contracts or generate new ones from templates.
  3. 33. Send the contract for electronic signature to all parties.
  4. 44. Track each contract's status from the panel.
  5. 55. Use the expiry radar for contracts with a term.

What the law says

  • EU Civil Law — contracts must meet validity conditions: capacity, consent, object, and lawful cause.
  • eIDAS Regulation (EU) 910/2014 — qualified electronic signatures have the same legal value as handwritten ones.
  • GDPR Art. 28 — data processing agreements must include mandatory data protection clauses.
  • Romanian Labour Code Art. 16 — individual employment contracts must be executed in writing.
  • Law no. 455/2001 on electronic signatures — digital documents are legally recognized in Romania.

Practical examples

  • IT maintenance contract for a SaaS startup (2-year term, SLA clause, and late-penalty provisions).
  • Non-disclosure agreement (NDA) with an external freelancer, signed electronically in under 10 minutes.
  • Bilingual RO-EN service agreement with an EU client, archived in the account after signing.
  • Tracking 15 annual subscription contracts in the expiry radar, with the “expires in 30 days” filter.

Common mistakes

  • Missing confidentiality clause in contracts with freelancers or external partners.
  • Storing contracts in local folders with no version control or access management.
  • Not entering the end date — the contract does not show up in the expiry radar and may silently auto-renew or lapse without the team's knowledge.
  • Using scanned handwritten signatures instead of qualified electronic signatures, which may not hold in disputes.
