Your Security and Compliance, Guaranteed

We are committed to the highest standards of data security and legal compliance, so you can sign with confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions? We have answers. Here are some of the most common inquiries about using eSignly for leasing documents.

Yes. In the United States, the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce (ESIGN) Act of 2000 and the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (UETA) grant electronic signatures the same legal status as handwritten signatures. eSignly complies with these laws, and our comprehensive audit trail provides strong evidence of the signing process, making your leases legally enforceable.

Security is our top priority. We protect your data with multiple layers of security, including SSL encryption for data in transit and AES-256 bit encryption for documents at rest. We are also compliant with major security standards like SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001, ensuring our processes and infrastructure meet the highest industry benchmarks.

No, they do not. Tenants receive a secure email link. They simply click the link to open the document in their web browser on any device (computer, tablet, or phone) and can sign immediately. This hassle-free process is designed for maximum convenience and adoption.

Absolutely. You can upload your existing documents in various formats, including PDF, Microsoft Word (.doc, .docx), and others. Once uploaded, you can easily add signature fields and other necessary form fields before sending it out. You can also save your prepared document as a template for future use.

Once all parties have signed, a final, tamper-proof PDF version of the document is created. All signers automatically receive an email with a copy of the completed agreement attached. The document, along with its detailed audit trail, is also securely stored in your eSignly account for easy access and record-keeping.

While we offer the same core legal compliance and security as major competitors, our customers choose us for our intuitive user interface, transparent and competitive pricing, and dedicated customer support. We focus on providing a streamlined experience with powerful features like bulk sending and templates that are particularly valuable for real estate workflows, offering exceptional value without unnecessary complexity.
