PRIVACY NOTICE

Version Date:  January 10, 2024


PURPOSE

At Docusign, protecting privacy is a key priority. The purpose of this document
is to set out how Docusign, Inc. and its affiliates (“us,” “our,” or “we”)
collect, use, store, or otherwise process personal information about customers
and other individuals (collectively "you") who access or use our websites,
including docusign.com and docusign.net, our mobile applications, our web client
or professional client, and/or any of our other websites, products, or services
that link to this Privacy Notice (the “Services”). By using our Services, you
understand that we will collect and use your personal information as described
in this Privacy Notice.

In some cases, we may process your personal information pursuant to an agreement
with a third-party organization. In those cases, the terms of that agreement may
govern how we process your personal information. If you believe a third-party
organization has asked us to process your personal information on their behalf,
please consult with them in the first instance, as they will be responsible for
how we process your information. This Privacy Notice (“Notice”) does not apply
to any third-party websites and apps that you may use, including those to which
we link in our Services. You should review the terms and policies for
third-party websites and apps before clicking on any links.

Docusign’s core product and Services help users create, complete, and show the
validity of digital or electronic transactions, such as electronically signing a
contract for mobile phone services or placing a digital signature on a loan
application. As part of our Services, users want us to collect and record
information that helps the parties prove the validity of the transactions, such
as the names of the persons who are involved in the transactions and the devices
those persons use.

We recommend that you read this Notice in full to ensure you are fully informed
about the way we collect, use, store, or otherwise process your personal
information as well as your privacy rights. However, if you want to skip to a
particular section of this Notice, please refer to the table of contents below.

     Countries


1. COLLECTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

You have choices about whether you visit our websites, install our apps, or
provide personal information to us. However, if you do not provide us with
certain personal information, you may not be able to use some functionalities of
our Services. For example, if you do not adopt an electronic signature, then you
will not be able to sign certain electronic documents on our Service. For
choices and rights you may have, please see Sections 5 and 8 of this Notice.

Personal Information We Collect from You.  You provide us with personal
information about yourself when you:

 * Register or log in to your account.

 * Start, sign, or review an electronic document.

 * Create or edit your user profile.

 * Contact customer support.

 * Comment on our blogs or in community forums.

 * Participate in surveys, sponsored events, sweepstakes, or when you sign up
   for newsletters.

You also provide us with personal information about others when you use parts of
our Services, such as when you:

 * Start or participate in an electronic transaction, such as an envelope within
   Docusign Signature.

 * Share information in Docusign Rooms Service.

 * Add others as a member to an existing account.

 * Leave comments.

 * Refer friends.

Your main choice for this type of personal information is simply not providing
it, such as by not creating a profile or not leaving a comment in a blog. For
other choices you may have, please see Section 5 of this Privacy Notice.

Examples of the categories of personal information you may provide are:

 * Identifiers and Contact Information. This includes your name, email address,
   mailing address, phone number, or electronic signature.

 * Commercial Information. This includes billing and payment information (e.g.,
   credit card number, expiration date, visual cryptogram), and products or
   services purchased.

 * Your Account Data. This includes your login information (email and password)
   and user profile information (contact details, including your name, email
   address, and photo (if uploaded)).

 * Other Contacts Data. When you grant us permission, information about your
   authorized contacts (e.g., name, email address) and an image of the contact
   (if uploaded) on your device that can be used to save as their profile image
   on your account.

 * Customer Service and Communications Information. This includes questions and
   other messages or feedback you address to us directly through online forms,
   by email or via our feedback surveys or customer support channels. If you use
   any of our chat features we may use to communicate with you, we may collect
   personal information you voluntarily provide during your interactions, such
   as your name, email address, contact details, or any other information you
   choose to share and retain a transcript of your chats for the purposes set
   forth in this Notice.

Personal Information We Collect Automatically. We may automatically collect
personal information from you and your devices when you use our Services,
including when you visit our websites or apps without logging in. For choices
you may have on what information we automatically collect, please see Section
­­5 of this Privacy Notice.

We collect personal information about how you use our Services and the devices
(e.g., computers, mobile phones, tablets) you use to access our Services. This
may include, but is not limited to, the following:

 * Device Data. This includes IP address, unique device identifiers, and device
   attributes, such as operating system and browser type.

 * Usage Data. This includes web log data, referring and exit pages and URLs,
   platform type, number of clicks, domain names, landing pages, pages and
   content viewed and the order of those pages, the amount of time spent on
   particular pages, the date(s) and time(s) you used our Services, the
   frequency of your use of our Services, error logs, and other related
   information.

 * Transactional Data. This includes IP addresses and authentication methods of
   parties to a transaction, subject line, history of actions that individuals
   take in connection with a transaction (e.g., review, sign, enable features),
   and information about those parties’ devices.

 * Marketing and Advertising Data. This includes your interests based on your
   use of our Services and other websites and online services, preferences in
   relation to receiving marketing materials from us, communication preferences,
   and your preferences for particular products and services.

Some of the information we collect automatically is captured using cookies,
which are text files containing small amounts of information that are downloaded
on your device or related technologies, such as web beacons, local shared
objects, and tracking pixels, to collect and/or store information. For
additional information about cookies and related technologies, including details
of how to opt-out, please read our Cookies Notice
(https://www.docusign.com/company/cookie-policy) and “Your Privacy Rights and
Choices” below.

Personal Information We Collect from Other Sources. Subject to applicable law,
we may collect personal information about you from others, such as:

 * Third-Party Sources. Examples of third-party sources include marketers,
   partners, researchers, affiliates (companies under common ownership or
   control of Docusign), service providers, and others where they are legally
   allowed to share your personal information with us. For example, if you
   register for our Services on another website, the website may provide your
   personal information to us.

 * Other Customers. Other customers may give us your personal information. For
   example, if a customer wants you to sign an electronic document in our
   Services, he or she will give us your email address and name.

 * Combining Personal Information from Different Sources. We may combine the
   personal information we receive from other sources with personal information
   we collect from you (or your device) and use it as described in this Notice.

Personal Information We Collect & Process on Behalf of Customers. When our
business customers use certain Services, we generally process and store limited
personal information on their behalf as a data processor. For example, in the
context of Docusign eSignature, when a customer uploads contracts or other
documents for review or signature, we act as a data processor and process the
documents on the customer's behalf and in accordance with their instructions. In
those instances, the customer is the data controller and is responsible for most
aspects of the processing of the personal information.  For certain products
such as Docusign’s Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) and Identity products, we
may act as a processor and as a controller in certain circumstances (e.g.,
retention of transactional data to comply with Docusign’s legal obligations). 
If you have any questions or concerns about how personal information is
processed in these cases, including how to exercise your rights as a data
subject, you should contact the customer (either your employer or the individual
or entity requesting your signature). If we receive any rights requests
concerning instances where we act as a data processor, we will forward your
query on to the relevant customer.


2. USE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION AND LAWFUL BASES FOR PROCESSING

In general, and subject to applicable law, we will use your personal information
to provide, maintain, and improve our Services, develop new Services, and market
our Docusign products and Services. Please see the section below entitled
"Further Information on the Personal Information We Process and Our Purposes,"
which provides more specific information on these purposes, examples of the
types of information processed for these purposes, and the lawful bases (i.e.,
legal grounds) on which we rely to process it.

Lawful Basis for Processing Your Personal Information. If applicable data
protection law requires a lawful basis for processing, and where Docusign acts
as a data controller, our lawful basis for collecting and using the personal
information described in this Notice will depend on the type of personal
information concerned and the specific context in which we collect or use it.

We normally collect or use personal information only where we need the personal
information to perform a contract with you or where the processing is in our
legitimate interests and not overridden by your data protection interests or
fundamental rights and freedoms. In some cases, we may have a legal obligation
to collect or retain personal information or may need the personal information
to protect your vital interests or those of another person. In certain
circumstances, we may ask for your consent (separately from any contract between
us) before we collect, use, or disclose your personal data. 

If we process sensitive personal information about you, as well as ensuring that
one of the lawful bases referenced above applies, we will make sure that one or
more of the grounds for processing sensitive personal information applies.

Note that in situations where Docusign acts as a processor, it is our customer
who determines the appropriate legal basis associated with processing
activities, and queries about the applicable lawful basis should be directed to
them.

Further Information on the Personal Information We Process and Our Purposes 

The table below provides more specific information on our purposes, the types of
information that may be processed, and the legal bases on which we process it.
The examples provided in the table cannot, of course, be exhaustive. 

Depending on the jurisdiction in which you live, there may be other applicable
lawful bases for processing your personal information that are not listed here.
If you have questions about our lawful bases or need further information, please
contact us using the contact details provided in Section 11 of this Notice.

Other Uses. We may aggregate the personal information we collect, or insights
generated or derived from the use of our Services, or remove pieces of personal
information (“de-identify”) to limit or prevent identification of any particular
user or device to help with goals like marketing, research and product
development (including training our artificial intelligence models that power
certain of our Services). Where such information has been aggregated and
anonymized so that it is no longer considered personal information under
applicable data protection law, this Notice does not apply.

AI Model Training. AI models must be trained in order to perform accurately.
Through training, an AI model learns to recognize patterns and make predictions.
Docusign has implemented role-based access controls and technical and
organizational security measures to help minimize the privacy impact to
individuals when we train our AI models. We intentionally design our systems
with functionality to avoid training models using personal information that
customers may enter into our Services (except when we have consent from a
customer to do so). Docusign is committed to developing our Services that
involve AI technology in accordance with our AI Innovation Principles.


3. DISCLOSURES OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

Subject to applicable law, including to the extent applicable law requires us to
obtain consent, we may disclose personal information as follows:

 * Service Providers. We disclose your personal information to service providers
   we use to support our Services. These companies provide services like
   intelligent search technology, intelligent analytics, advertising,
   authentication systems, bill collection, fraud detection, and customer
   support. We have contracts with our service providers with applicable privacy
   and data protection language and controls that require the safeguarding and
   lawful and proper use of your personal information.

 * Affiliates. We may disclose your personal information to other companies
   under common ownership or control with Docusign. These companies use your
   personal information as described in this Notice. 

 * Joint Marketing Partners. We may provide your personal information to
   sponsors of events, webinars, or sweepstakes for which you register, or other
   parties with whom we may engage in joint marketing activities.

 * Advertising and Marketing Partners. We may allow third-party advertising and
   marketing technologies and parties that support our advertising and marketing
   efforts (e.g., ad networks, ad measurement services, advertising analytics
   providers, remarketing providers, etc.) on our marketing websites that use
   cookies and similar technologies to deliver relevant and targeted content and
   advertising to you on the marketing websites and other websites you visit and
   applications you use. Note that we do not deploy third-party advertising
   cookies in our products used by customers, such as eSignature, Contact
   Lifecycle, and Identify or disclose customer data to advertising and
   marketing partners.

 * Public or Government Authorities. We may disclose your personal information
   to comply with our legal obligations, regulations, or contracts, or to
   respond to a court order, administrative, or judicial process, such as a
   subpoena, government audit, or search warrant where we are legally compelled
   to do so. We also may disclose your information when there are threats to the
   physical safety of any person, violations of Docusign policies or other
   agreements, or to protect the legal rights of third parties, including our
   employees, users, or the public.

 * Corporate Transactions. Your personal information may be disclosed or
   transferred to relevant third parties in the event of, or as part of the due
   diligence for, any proposed or actual reorganization, sale, merger,
   consolidation, joint venture, assignment, transfer, or other disposition of
   all or part of our business, assets, or stock (including in connection with
   any bankruptcy or similar proceeding). If a corporate transaction occurs, we
   will provide notification of any changes to the control of your information,
   as well as choices you may have.

 * Consent. We may disclose your personal information in other ways if you have
   asked us to do so or have given consent. For example, with your consent, we
   post user testimonials that may identify you.

Your personal information may also be disclosed as described below:

 * Other Docusign users. When you allow others to access, use, or edit content
   in your account, we provide that content to them. For example, if you send an
   envelope to others for review or signature, we make the contents of the
   envelope available to them.

 * Payment Processors. When you make a payment to another user within our
   Services, we disclose your payment method details to the third-party payment
   processor selected by you.

 * Public Information.
   
   * User-Generated Content. When you comment on our blogs or in our community
     forums, this information may also be read, collected, and used by others.
   
   * Profile Information. When you create a Docusign profile, other Docusign
     users can view your profile information. If you would like to make this
     information private, please visit your account settings.

 * Your Employer or Organization. When you create an account or user role with
   an email address assigned to you as an employee, contractor, or member of an
   organization (e.g., yourname@youremployer.com or yourname@nonprofit.org),
   that organization (if it is a Docusign customer with certain features) can
   find your account and take certain actions that may affect your account.


4. RETENTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

We keep your personal information for no longer than necessary for the purposes
for which it is processed. The length of time for which we retain personal
information depends on the purposes for which we collected and use it and/or as
required to comply with applicable laws as set out in our data retention policy
and information handling standards. Generally, this means we retain your
personal information to comply with any retention compliance obligations or
statutory requirements or for purposes of performing a contract with you. Where
there are technical limitations that prevent deletion or anonymization, we
safeguard personal information and limit active use of it through implementing
appropriate organizational technical and security measures.


5. YOUR CHOICES

This section describes many of the actions you can take to change or limit the
collection, use, storage, or other processing of your personal information.

 * Profile. You are not required to fill out a profile. If you do, you can
   access and review this personal information. If any personal information is
   inaccurate or incomplete, you can make changes in your account settings.

 * Marketing Messages. You can opt out of email marketing messages we send you
   by clicking on the “unsubscribe” link in the email message or unsubscribe
   here (https://pref.docusign.com/preference-center). Please note that we may
   send you one message to confirm that you want to opt-out. If you are a
   registered user of our Services, or if you have engaged in transactions with
   us, we may continue to send transactional or relationship messages (e.g.,
   signing notifications or account notifications) after you opt out of
   marketing messages.  If you would like your phone number added to our
   internal Do-Not-Call list to opt out of telemarketing messages, please
   contact us via the Docusign Privacy Request Portal. Please include your first
   name, last name, company, and phone number.  You can also let us know at any
   time, including during a telemarketing call, that you do not want to be
   called again for telemarketing purposes.

 * Cookies and Other Related Technology. You can decline cookies through your
   browser settings or via the Docusign Cookie Preference Center and other
   methods detailed in our Cookie Notice
   (https://www.docusign.com/company/cookie-policy). However, if you decline
   cookies, you may not be able to use some parts of our Services.  Please note
   we do not recognize or respond to browser-initiated Do Not Track signals.

 * Device and Usage Information. If you do not want us to see your device
   location, you can turn off location sharing on your device, change your
   device privacy settings, or decline to share location on your browser.

 * Closing Your Account. If you wish to close your account, please log in to
   your account and edit your plan. For more information, click
   here: https://support.docusign.com/en/articles/How-do-I-cancel-or-downgrade-my-account.

 * Complaints. We are committed to resolving valid complaints about your privacy
   and our collection, use, storage, or other processing of your personal
   information. For questions or complaints regarding our data use practices or
   this Notice, please contact us via the Docusign Privacy Request Portal.


6. YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS AND CHOICES

Rights Regarding Your Personal Information. You may have certain rights related
to your personal information, subject to local data protection laws, as
described in more detail below. To exercise any of these rights, please contact
us via the Docusign Privacy Request Portal . If you are a California resident,
you can find more information about your rights with respect to your personal
information in Section 8 (“Notice to California Residents”) below.

 * You also can request the following information: how we collect and use your
   personal information and why; the categories of personal information
   involved; the categories of recipients of your personal information; how we
   received your personal information and its source; our business purpose for
   using your personal information; and how long we use or store your personal
   information or the manner in which we determine relevant retention periods. 

 * You have a right to correct inaccurate personal information about you, and
   you should notify us immediately if you believe the personal information we
   hold about you is inaccurate, incomplete, or out-of-date.

 * In certain situations, you can ask that we erase or stop using your personal
   information, object to or restrict the use of your personal information,
   or export your personal information to another controller. 

 * Where we rely on your consent to process your personal information, you have
   the right to decline consent and/or, if provided, to withdraw consent at any
   time. This will not affect the lawfulness of processing prior to the
   withdrawal of your consent. At any time, you can request that we stop using
   your personal information for direct marketing purposes. See Section 5 (“Your
   Choices”) of this Notice for more information on your choices.

 * If you are unsatisfied with our response to your complaint, you have a right
   to raise questions or complaints with your local data protection authority at
   any time. 

 * Depending on applicable law, you may have the right to appeal our decision to
   deny your request, if applicable. If we deny your request, we will provide
   you with information on how to appeal the decision, if applicable, in our
   communications with you.

If you make a request to exercise the rights referenced above, we will require
you to provide certain information for identity verification purposes. If you
have an account with us, we may verify you through your login of your account.
If you do not have an account with us, we may require you to provide additional
information from which we can confirm your identity. You may authorize an agent
to make a request to us on your behalf and we will verify the identity of your
agent or authorized legal representative by either seeking confirmation from you
or documents that establish the agent’s authorization to act on your behalf.

Certain personal information may be exempt from such requests under applicable
law. We need certain types of personal information so that we can provide the
product and Services to you. If you ask us to delete it, you may no longer be
able to access or use our product and Services.

If you wish to exercise these rights, please contact us via the Docusign Privacy
Request Portal.

Right to Opt-Out of Sales of Personal Information and Processing of Personal
Information for Targeted Advertising Purposes. Depending on your jurisdiction,
you may also have the right to opt out of “sales” of your information and
“processing of your information for targeted advertising purposes.”

As explained in Section 3 (“Disclosure of Your Personal Information”) above, we

Transfers to the U.S. and Third Countries. Subject to applicable law, we may

the transfer of personal information from the European Economic Area and/or
United Kingdom ("EEA") to Docusign outside of the EEA. Transfers outside the
Docusign group are only made to organizations that agree to adhere to the
standards in our Binding Corporate Rules or use another valid alternative (such
as EU Standard Contractual Clauses) under data protection law.  You may view our

B. The Right to Opt-Out of Sales/Sharing of Personal Information

Consumers have the right to opt out of “sales” of their personal information or
“sharing” of their personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising
purposes under the CCPA. As explained in our Privacy Notice above, we may allow
third-party advertising and marketing technologies and parties that support our
advertising and marketing efforts (e.g., ad networks, ad measurement services,
advertising analytics providers, remarketing providers, etc.) on our Services
that use cookies and similar technologies to deliver relevant and targeted
content and advertising to you on the Services and other websites you visit and
applications you use. This type of information collection and disclosure can be
considered to be a “sale” or “sharing” for cross-context behavioral advertising
purposes under the CCPA. 

Please note that we do not knowingly sell the personal information of minors
under 16 years of age without legally required affirmative authorization. 

If you would like to opt out of such “sales” or “processing” for targeted
advertising purposes through cookies and similar online technologies, please
click on the “Your Privacy Choices” link in our website footer.  To opt out of
these activities that are not based on cookies, please email us at
privacy@docusign.com.  If you have a legally recognized browser-based opt-out
preference signal turned on via your device browser, we recognize such
preference in accordance with applicable law. 

C. Information Rights

Consumers have other rights with respect to their Personal Information under the
CCPA. This includes the right to request that we:

 * Provide you the categories of personal information we have collected or
   disclosed about you in the last 12 months; the categories of sources of such
   information; the business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling
   your personal information; and the categories of third parties with whom we
   shared personal information.

 * Provide access to and/or a copy of specific pieces of information we hold
   about you.

 * Delete certain information we have about you.

 * Correct inaccurate personal information we have about you.

You may have the right to receive information about the financial incentives
that we offer to you (if any). You have the right not to be discriminated
against for exercising your CCPA rights. We will not deny, charge different
prices for, or provide a different level of quality of goods or services with
respect to Consumers who choose to exercise their CCPA rights.

Consumers may submit requests to access, delete, or correct their personal
information using any of the following methods:

 1. You may contact us via the DocuSign Privacy Request Portal.

 2. You may contact us by mail as outlined in Section 11.

For security purposes, we will attempt to verify your identity prior to
fulfilling your request.  If you have an account with us, we may verify your
identity through your login to your account.  If you do not have an account with
us, we may need to respond to your request or otherwise contact you to request
additional information from you to verify your identity (including, but not
limited to your name, email address, or telephone number).

If we can verify your identity, we will respond to your request to the extent we
are able to and as required by law.  If we cannot verify your identity, we may
request additional information from you or we may deny your request.  If we are
unable to fulfill your request in its entirety, we will provide further
information to you about the reasons that we could not comply with your
request. 

Certain personal information may be exempt from such requests under applicable
law. In addition, we need certain types of personal information so that we can
provide the product and Services to you. If you ask us to delete it, you may no
longer be able to access or use our product and Services.

D. Authorized Agents

Consumers may designate an agent to make CCPA requests on their behalf. For
Consumers who do so, we will take steps to verify both the identity of the
consumer seeking to exercise their rights as described above, and to verify that
the consumer’s agent has been authorized by them to make a request on their
behalf by requesting a signed written authorization or a copy of a power of
attorney.

E. “Shine the Light”

California residents may ask for a list of third parties that have received your
personal information for direct marketing purposes during the previous calendar
year. This list also contains the types of personal information shared. We
provide this list at no cost. If you are a California resident and would like to
request this information, please contact us via the Docusign Privacy Request
Portal.


9. HOW WE PROTECT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

developed and implemented an Information Security Management System and other
