Signable documents in Spaces

• Watermarking is currently not supported on signable documents.
• If you have a signable document in a Space that doesn’t require email to access, visitors to the signable document will still be required to enter their email addresses.
• When you upload a signable document through Add new content flow in a Space and select Upload signable document, your content will automatically skip the eSignature configuration steps. You’ll need to click into the document within your Space to configure it, otherwise, the document will not be visible to your visitors.

• Both the E-Sign Act and UETA allow electronic records and signatures to be legally enforceable for commercial transactions. The E-Sign Act is the federal statute, and UETA is the state analog.
• DocSend is compliant with the E-Sign Act and UETA regulations because the platform obtains prior consent from the parties to conduct business electronically under the Terms of Service and when the signer clicks on the checkbox when signing. While compliant with the E-Sign Act and UETA, it is up to the owner and signer to ensure the validity of any documents signed using DocSend eSignature and that it complies with any additional state or industry-specific rules and regulations.
• DocSend eSignature is not compliant with any eSignature rules and regulations outside of the United States.
