Questions people ask about DocuSign

Where is DocuSign's DPA?

DocuSign publishes its customer data processing agreement at https://www.docusign.com/legal/terms-and-conditions/data-protection-attachment. We last opened that link on 30 October 2026.

Is DocuSign's DPA the same thing as a data processing addendum?

Yes. A data processing agreement and a data processing addendum are two names for the document Article 28 of the GDPR requires between a controller and a processor; vendors use both, and some call it processor terms. What it has to contain does not change with the name. DocuSign's is at https://www.docusign.com/legal/terms-and-conditions/data-protection-attachment.

Where is DocuSign's sub-processor list?

DocuSign publishes the list of its own sub-processors at https://www.docusign.com/trust/privacy/subprocessors-list. We last opened that link on 30 October 2026.

Which legal entity does DocuSign contract through?

Docusign International (EMEA) Limited, registered in Ireland. That is the name to put in a record of processing or a sub-processor list, not the brand.

Does sending personal data to DocuSign count as a transfer out of the EEA?

No. Docusign International (EMEA) Limited is registered in Ireland, inside the EEA, so no transfer mechanism is needed to reach it. Where it sends personal data on to is a separate question, and one for its own sub-processor list.

Where is DocuSign's trust center?

DocuSign publishes it at https://www.docusign.com/trust. A trust center, trust page or security page is the same thing under different names: the vendor's own account of how it protects data, and the place it keeps its certifications. It is DocuSign's page, so we link to it rather than repeat what it says.
