What do we collect?
Use of Document eSign’s services implies that certain personal data is shared between users exchanging a signed document. After completing a signing process, Document eSign will send a signing log to both the user that initiated the signing process and to any users that have signed the document or are in another way related to the Document eSign.
This signing log may contain names, email addresses, IP addresses and timestamps of all users involved, and may also contain certain additional information, such as location data or domain names. All changes to the document, initiated by users, such as text, dates and signatures, will be included in the signing log.
Your name and email address may also have been provided to us by someone who sent you a Document eSign. If you log into your Document eSign account using Facebook, Google or other services, these services may share additional information about you in accordance with their privacy policy.
During the signing process, we may provide users involved with information about the status of the signing process, such as whether a Document eSign has been delivered, viewed, downloaded and/or it has resulted in a signature. These events may also be included in the signing log.
