Privacy Policy

LEGAL REVIEW REQUIRED. This is a working template, not a finished privacy policy. Have your legal counsel review and adapt to your actual practices and applicable laws before publishing. Replace every […] placeholder with verified information.

Effective date: [DATE]
Last updated: [DATE]

Summary (plain English)

This is the long version. The short version:

  • We collect what we need to run the product — your account info, the documents you upload, the way you use the product
  • We use it to provide the service, improve it, and keep it secure
  • We don't sell your data
  • We don't train AI models on your documents
  • You can export, delete, or correct your data anytime
  • We hand your data to law enforcement only when legally compelled
  • We use a short list of subprocessors (listed at /security/subprocessors)

If anything below contradicts the summary, the legal version below is the controlling text — but tell us, because the contradiction is probably a bug.

1. Who we are

FusionDocs is operated by [LEGAL ENTITY NAME], registered in [JURISDICTION] at [REGISTERED ADDRESS].

For privacy questions, contact privacy@fusiondocs.com.

Our EU Representative under GDPR Article 27 is [NAME, ADDRESS — required if you offer services to EU users from outside the EU].

Our UK Representative under UK GDPR Article 27 is [NAME, ADDRESS — required if you offer services to UK users from outside the UK].

For California, Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, and other U.S. state privacy laws, see Section 12.

2. What we collect

Account information

  • Your name and email when you sign up
  • Your password (stored as a salted hash; we never see the plaintext)
  • Your billing information (handled by Stripe; we store only the last 4 digits and brand)
  • Your workspace, team, role, and user preferences

Documents and content

  • Documents you upload for signing
  • Metadata about those documents (file name, page count, who you sent them to, when they were signed)
  • The content of fields signers fill in
  • IP addresses, timestamps, and approximate location of senders and signers (required for the audit certificate)

Usage data

  • Pages you visit and actions you take in the product
  • Device info (browser, OS, screen size — collected for compatibility, not tracking)
  • Errors and performance metrics

Information from third parties

  • If you connect an integration (e.g., Salesforce, HubSpot), we receive data from that integration on your behalf
  • If you sign in with SSO, we receive the attributes your IdP releases

3. How we use it

To provide the service

  • Send documents, route signers, generate audit certificates, deliver signed PDFs
  • Authenticate users and authorize actions
  • Process payments

To improve the service

  • Aggregate, anonymized analytics (no individual document contents)
  • Diagnose bugs and performance issues (with documents redacted from logs)
  • Inform product roadmap

To keep things secure

  • Detect and prevent fraud, abuse, and security incidents
  • Investigate violations of our Terms of Service

To communicate with you

  • Service messages (e.g., your document was signed)
  • Account notifications (security, billing)
  • Product updates (you can unsubscribe; service messages aren't unsubscribable while you have an account)

4. What we don't do

  • We don't sell your personal information.
  • We don't train AI models on your documents or your customers' personal data.
  • We don't share your data with advertisers.
  • We don't read the contents of your documents beyond what's needed to render them, detect fields, generate audit certificates, and provide search if you ask for it.

5. Who we share with

Subprocessors

We share data with vendors who help us run the service. They're contractually bound to use data only for our purposes and to apply the same protections we do. Current list at /security/subprocessors.

Other users in your workspace

If you're part of a team, other team members may see documents you've sent, depending on the workspace's role and permission settings.

Signers

When you send a document, the signers see the document, your name, your email, and any message you include.

Legal compliance

We may share data when we believe in good faith it's required by law, court order, or legal process. We push back on overbroad requests and notify customers unless legally prohibited.

Business transfers

If FusionDocs is acquired or merged, your data may be transferred. We'd notify you in advance and you'd have the option to export and delete.

6. Where we store data

By default, your data is stored in the region you selected at signup:

  • U.S. — AWS us-east-1
  • EU — AWS eu-central-1

Some metadata (account creation, billing, support tickets) is stored in the region of our headquarters, [REGION]. Where we transfer data across borders, we rely on:

  • For EU/UK transfers: Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs)
