1.    DEFINITIONS

“DocuSign ID Verification” (or the “IDV Service”) means the DocuSign Service that provides identification verification services to parties executing eDocuments using DocuSign Signature. The IDV Service allows a Customer to verify the identity of a Signer prior to Signer executing an eDocument sent by Customer through DocuSign Signature.

“Signer” means a person who is sent an eDocument by Customer via DocuSign Signature and who is requested to verify their identity through the IDV Service prior to electronically signing an eDocument.

“Signer Identification” means any data identifying a Signer that is collected by Customer through the IDV Service for the purpose of confirming the identity of such Signer. Such data may include a government-issued identification (e.g., a passport) or identification issued to Signer by a bank or national authority (e.g., an electronic ID), or Signer-held certificate (e.g., an electronic national ID card or equivalent delivered by a national authority).

2.    CUSTOMER RESPONSIBILITIES

(e)   Customer shall not use the IDV Service for the purpose of engaging in any pornographic business, any non-regulated gambling business, any illegal activities, false advertising, or to deliver regulated products and/or services without the necessary licenses in place.
