Consent Form Templates
A consent form is a document used to confirm that a person understands and agrees to a treatment, service, study, or activity. The online consent form templates below are grouped by use case — from beauty treatments and wellness services to parental consent and media release consents — so you can quickly find the format that matches your workflow.
All informed consent form examples in AidaForm are fully editable: customize the wording, add your own fields and disclosures, upload your logo, and collect consent with e-signatures or checkboxes. If you need supporting documents from your clients or participants, for example, ID copies, use a File Upload field, and respondents will attach files directly on the form.
Every template works both online and on paper: share it as a web form, or save it as a PDF template — even after you’ve customized it — to print or send as a document. All completed submissions are safely stored in your AidaForm account on the servers in the USA and EU, and can also be downloaded as PDF files for recordkeeping.

Frequently asked questions about online consent forms
What is an informed consent form?
An informed consent form is a document that confirms a person understands and agrees to a treatment, service, activity, or study after receiving the relevant information about it. Depending on the use case, the form may include details about possible risks, expected outcomes, privacy terms, medical conditions, or liability waivers.
Consent forms are commonly used in healthcare, wellness services, education, research participation, media release, and activities involving minors.
What should a consent form include?
The content of a consent form depends on your industry and use case, but most forms include:
- information about the service, treatment, study, or activity
- possible risks or limitations
- participant or client contact details
- consent confirmation checkboxes
- signature fields
- emergency contact or health information where appropriate
- privacy or data processing information
Use clear language and organize the information into short, readable sections to make the form easier to understand and complete.

Are online consent forms legally valid?
Electronic consent forms and e-signatures are legally accepted in many countries and industries, but requirements may vary depending on your location and use case. Before collecting consent online, review the laws and regulations applicable to your organization or activity.
How do I collect signatures on a consent form?

Depending on your location and use case, you may need to provide respondents with information about how their personal data is collected, stored, and processed. AidaForm allows you to add privacy policies, terms and conditions, consent checkboxes, and links to external documents directly to your form.
When collecting personal information, make sure your workflow complies with the data protection regulations applicable in your country or region.
