Built for regulatory compliance
Insurance Signing meets legal and regulatory requirements for digital signatures, audit trails, and policy management.
Digital signature regulations
eIDAS (European Union)
Insurance Signing supports eIDAS-compliant signatures:
- Simple Electronic Signature (SES): Email verification + consent capture
- Advanced Electronic Signature (AES): Cryptographic signatures with identity verification
- Qualified Electronic Signature (QES): Integration with certified identity providers (optional)
All signature levels include complete audit trails and tamper-evident evidence chains.
ESIGN Act (United States)
Meets requirements under the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act:
- Proof of signer's intent to sign
- Consent to do business electronically
- Association of signature with the record
- Retention of signed records
UETA (Uniform Electronic Transactions Act)
Complies with state-level electronic signature laws:
- Signature attributable to a person
- Record retention requirements
- Proof that record has not been altered
Insurance-specific compliance
Policy versioning and amendments
Regulations require that policy changes be documented and traceable:
- All versions preserved with timestamps
- Amendments linked to original policies
- Clear audit trail of who approved changes
- No silent edits — every change creates an event
Consent and disclosure
Insurance regulations require proof that policyholders understood what they signed:
- Record of document delivery (when sent, when opened)
- Tracking of review time (how long document was viewed)
- Explicit consent capture (checkbox + signature)
- Ability to request paper copies (if required by law)
Right to cancel / cooling-off period
Some insurance policies include a cancellation window:
- System can enforce cooling-off periods before policy activation
- Cancellation requests are documented with timestamps
- Revocation process preserves original policy and signatures
Data protection & privacy
GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation)
Insurance Signing is GDPR-compliant:
- Right to access: Signers can export all their data
- Right to erasure: Personal data can be anonymized (while preserving audit trail)
- Data minimization: Only necessary data is collected
- Consent: Explicit consent for data processing
- Breach notification: Automated alerts for security incidents
Data residency
For customers with data residency requirements:
- EU customers can store data in EU regions
- UK customers can use UK-only infrastructure
- Custom deployment options for regulated markets
Audit & evidence
Insurance Signing creates legally-admissible evidence:
- Immutable audit logs: Every signature event is permanent
- Cryptographic hashing: Proves document integrity (SHA-256)
- Timestamp authority: Optional integration with certified TSA for legal timestamps
- Court-ready exports: PDFs formatted for legal review
Archival & retention
Insurance policies often have multi-year retention requirements:
- Policies and signatures retained for configurable periods (e.g., 7 years post-expiry)
- Archived policies remain accessible and exportable
- Automated retention policy enforcement
- Deletion logs (when and why data was purged)
Security & infrastructure
Insurance Signing runs on SOC 2 Type II compliant infrastructure:
- Data encrypted at rest (AES-256) and in transit (TLS 1.3)
- Regular penetration testing
- Automated security patching
- Geographic redundancy and disaster recovery
- 99.9% uptime SLA (Enterprise plans)
