Hosted Services Specifications
1. DESCRIPTION OF THE HOSTED SERVICES.
DocuSign’s On-demand Electronic
Signature Service, a secure online web service, operates substantially as
set forth in these specifications. DocuSign reserves the right to change the
look and feel of such Hosted Services from time to time. Any capitalized terms
not defined in this document have the meaning assigned to such terms in the
Terms of Use.
1.1 An Account is established by the Customer and at least one person is
registered as an Administrative User.
1.2 An Administrative User may log in to the System and accesses the Account
administration tools. Using these tools, the Administrative User is able to
invite individuals to become Authorized Users of the Hosted Services, as well
as establish usage privileges for each Authorized User.
1.3 To use the Hosted Services, each Authorized User must accept the invitation
to join the Customer’s Account, including the creation of a user ID
and password.
1.4 Authorized Users may use the Account to transmit document images into
the System via an encrypted internet connection. This action may also include
transmission of information including but not limited to: the email address
of the intended recipients, the Authentication Measures for each recipient
to access the documents, and the precise locations within the documents where
a recipient must initial or sign the documents.
1.5 Document images and supporting information that are transmitted to the
System are secured using industry standard encryption along with other industry
standard security technologies and procedures.
1.6 The System then sends a notification to each intended recipient to alert
the recipient that he or she has a document to review and/or sign.
1.7 Using a standard web browser, the recipient must then log in to the DocuSign
system, authenticate himself or herself according to the steps established
by the Authorized User, and review and sign the documents.
1.8 Once the documents have been signed by all the intended recipients, all
parties are notified that the transaction is complete, and the final signed
documents are made available for distribution as PDF files. These PDF files
may be downloaded and stored locally in electronic format, or printed for
paper storage.
1.9 Transactions will be stored within the System during the Term, either
in exchange for a fee or bundled with other Hosted Services. If Customer opts
not to purchase storage, a transaction may be deleted from the System thirty
(30) days from its creation (send) date regardless of its state or status.
1.10 Authorized Users may employ authentication measures to help establish
identity of signers. Knowledge-based authentication is available for a fee.
