3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

  • Provide and Maintain the Service: To operate our e-signature platform, process documents, and facilitate signature workflows.

4. Data Security

We implement robust security measures designed to protect your information, particularly given the sensitive nature of e-signature services in regulated industries:

  • Encryption: All data is encrypted in transit using TLS 1.3 and at rest using AES-256 encryption.
  • Access Controls: Role-based access controls and multi-factor authentication options.
  • Audit Logging: Comprehensive, tamper-evident audit trails for all signature-related activities.
  • Infrastructure Security: Hosted on secure cloud infrastructure with regular security assessments.
  • Data Isolation: Multi-tenant architecture with strict data isolation between organizations.

While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.

We retain your information for as long as necessary to:

  • Provide our services to you
  • Comply with legal and regulatory requirements (including GxP record retention requirements)
  • Resolve disputes and enforce agreements
