The Service is a platform where users of the Service may execute legal instruments using their electronic signatures.

These Terms are an agreement between you or the entity you represent ("you," "your," or “yours”) and SignWell. The Terms include and hereby incorporate by reference SignWell’s Privacy Policy found at www.signwell.com/privacy/ and the SignWell Privacy Notice for California Residents found at www.signwell.com/ccpa/.

For purposes of these Terms, a “User” is any natural person accessing the Service either (i) to create and send documents to be filled out by other Users or (ii) to fill out documents created by another User.

Subscriptions: Automatic Billing, Billing Cycle & Cancellation

Some features of the Service are billed on a subscription basis ("Subscription(s)"). You will be billed in advance on a recurring basis (“Automatic Billing”). Your billing cycle will last a month or a year, depending on the type of subscription plan you select when purchasing a Subscription (“Billing Cycle”).

At the end of each Billing Cycle, your Subscription will automatically renew under the exact same conditions unless you or SignWell cancel(s) it. You may cancel your Subscription renewal either through your online account management page or by contacting SignWell customer support team.

Payment Terms

A valid credit or debit card is required to process the payment for your Subscription. You shall provide SignWell with accurate and complete billing information including full name, address, state, zip or postal code, telephone number, and a valid credit or debit card number. By submitting such financial information, you authorize SignWell to charge you for all Subscription fees incurred through your account.

Should Automatic Billing fail to occur for any reason, SignWell will issue an electronic invoice requesting you to proceed with paying the Subscription fees manually by a certain date.

All the payments are securely processed by Stripe, Inc. (“Stripe”), a third party payment processing company. Stripe is responsible for processing and storing your financial data. If you wish to know how your financial data is processed and stored, please read Stripe’s privacy policy and terms and conditions.

Free Trial

SignWell may, at its sole discretion, offer a Subscription with a free trial for a limited period of time ("Free Trial").

You may be required to enter your billing information in order to sign up for the Free Trial. If you do enter your billing information when signing up for the Free Trial, you will not be charged by SignWell until after the Free Trial has expired. The day after the Free Trial’s expiration period, you will be automatically charged the applicable Subscription fees for the type of Subscription you have selected, unless you cancel your Free Trial before it expires.

At any time and without notice, SignWell reserves the right to (i) modify the terms and conditions of the Free Trial offer, (ii) cancel Free Trial offer to those users who are found to be in breach of these Terms, or (iii) stop offering Free Trial offer, at SignWell’s sole discretion.

Change in Subscription Fees

SignWell, in its sole discretion and at any time, may modify the Subscription fees. Any changes to Subscription fees will take effect at the start of a new Billing Cycle.

SignWell will provide you with a reasonable prior notice of any changes made to Subscription fees to give you an opportunity to cancel your Subscription before any such change becomes effective.

Your continued use of the Service after the Subscription fee change comes into effect constitutes your agreement to pay the modified Subscription fee amount starting from a new Billing Cycle.

Modification to Your Use of the Service

SignWell may suspend, alter, or halt your use of the Service if the usage produces an excessive burden on the network, systems, and infrastructure of the Service. Such modification will remain in effect until a Subscription plan is obtained that meets the demand of your current usage of the Service.

SignWell will provide you with a reasonable prior notice to any such modification to your Service account so that an agreement can be made before any such interruptions of your use of the Service.

Refunds

We generally do not issue refunds. However, we will consider issuing a refund if all the following conditions are met:

  1. a refund request is submitted within the first 30 days of Subscription, and
  2. no documents, agreements and other legal instruments were executed using such Subscription.

Electronic Signatures

Electronic signatures are valid and enforceable with consent of all parties in most industrialized countries, however, laws vary and exceptions exist. Common exceptions include, but are not limited to: wills, powers of attorney, documents that need to be notarized, real estate transactions, and adoption papers.

Keep in mind that electronic signatures are not the same thing as digital signatures. Digital signatures are sometimes referred to as certified electronic signatures, advanced electronic signatures, etc. Some countries deem digital signatures admissible and valid for almost all types of agreements because digital signatures can verify the identity of a person.

SignWell is not responsible for determining whether any particular legal instrument is (i) subject to an exception to applicable electronic signature laws; or (ii) whether it can be legally formed by electronic signatures. It is your responsibility to make sure that laws of the country which govern your legal instruments and agreements deem electronic signatures admissible, valid and enforceable.

By using the Service, you hereby give your consent to executing agreements, contracts and other legal instruments using electronic signatures.

The Service facilitates the execution of electronic or digital documents between Users. Nothing in these Terms may be construed to make SignWell a party to any such documents processed through the Service, and SignWell makes no representation or warranty regarding the transactions sought to be affected by any such documents.

Between SignWell and User, User has exclusive control over and responsibility for the content, quality, and format of any Service Document. Without limiting the foregoing, all Service Documents stored by SignWell in the Service are maintained in an encrypted form, and SignWell has no control of or access to their contents except to the extent access is requested in writing and made available by User to SignWell.
