If a signer has completed the signing process and does not want to keep the document online for the two-week period, you can go back to the main tool page, scroll further down, and full tracking of all signed documents. For instance, we will keep your signatures saved within the tool for a more streamlined signing experience.

There are also a few additional perks for Pro users. To make things even more practical, we prolong the period that we keep files online to 14 days-when you share files or request a signature. Our business is also ISO/IEC 27001 certified and GDPR compliant. We remove files after one hour of processing and use SSL encryption for all file transfers. Smallpdf caters to over 30 million trusted users every month. Remember to always check in with your local laws on the legality of digital and electronic signatures in your country.

Once you sign your documents digitally, you can go back to your Adobe Reader to validate the PDF’s digital signature, as illustrated above. In this case, we will notify you and the signer when you send out the request, when they sign the PDF, and when it’s near its deletion date (14-days). If you need to request a signature, it’s just one additional click to add a signer’s email and send them the document.
