By providing a phone number and proceeding with phone 2FA, the recipient expressly consents to receive automated SMS messages from DocuSeal containing verification codes for the sole purpose of verifying their identity prior to signing.
We do not share mobile opt-in data. The mobile opt-in data for SMS-based 2FA will not be shared with or sold to third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Mobile opt-in data is used exclusively for delivering 2FA verification codes related to the document processing.
We use Twilio and AWS as our SMS service providers to deliver these messages.
