Digital Signature Certificate acceptance binds subscribers to certify private-key entitlement, truthful representations, and known certificate information for reasonable reliance.

Deemed acceptance of a Digital Signature Certificate arises when the subscriber publishes or authorises publication of it, places it in a repository, or otherwise demonstrates approval. Acceptance certifies to reasonable relying persons that the subscriber holds and is entitled to hold the corresponding private key, that representations made to the Certifying Authority and relevant material are true, and that certificate information within the subscriber's knowledge is true.
