Electronic signature

A digital certificate is an electronic document signed by a Certification Authority and which makes it possible to technically and legally guarantee your identity on the internet.

Digital certificates issued by the Autoritat de Certificació de la Comunitat Valenciana (ACCV) enable electronic signatures and encryption of information and are essential for institutions that offer on-line services and for people who wish to carry out procedures in this way, as they ensure:

• The identification of the issuer.
• The integrity of the information and that the transaction has not been manipulated by an unauthorised party.
• The actions and commitments acquired by online means will not be rejected.
• The confidentiality of communications, as only the recipient can access the content of the encrypted information.
