# You've been asked to sign What to do when an Easerix Sign email lands in your inbox — no account needed. Canonical: https://easerix.com/docs/sign/for-signers Someone used Easerix Sign to ask for your signature. The email you received contains a personal signing link — the address includes `/s/` followed by a code that's unique to you. Open it in any browser, review the document, fill in your fields, draw or type your signature, and finish. No account needed. ## What the email is The sender uploaded a document to Easerix Sign and added you as a recipient. The email may include a short message from them, and its link opens the document directly — the link itself is your access, so there is nothing to install and nothing to sign up for. Don't forward it: anyone with the link can open your copy of the document. ## Open your link 1. Open the link from the email. You'll see the document with the sender's message, if they wrote one. 2. If the page says **This document is protected**, the sender added an access code. Enter the code they gave you (outside the email) and choose **Unlock**. 3. Review the document. Fields assigned to you are highlighted on the page itself. ## Sign the document 1. Fill in any text or checkbox fields placed for you. Date fields are filled automatically when you finish. 2. Choose **Add signature** (or tap a highlighted **Sign here** box). Draw your signature with your finger or mouse, or switch to the **Type** tab and type your full name. 3. Optionally tick **Save this signature for next time** — it's kept in your browser only, for reuse on this device. 4. Choose **Apply signature**, then tick the consent checkbox agreeing to sign electronically. 5. Choose **Finish & sign**. Your signature is recorded and the sender is notified. ## If you'd rather not sign Choose **Decline to sign**, optionally give a reason, and confirm. The sender is notified and the request is closed — nothing further is needed from you. ## Signing in person Sometimes the sender will sign you in person instead: they hand you their own device with a signature pad open, you draw your signature, and hand it back. An in-person signature is recorded exactly like a remote one, including on the document's audit trail. ## What happens after - Once **everyone** has signed, you'll get the final document by email — the PDF with all signatures stamped in, plus a certificate of completion. - Reopening your link after signing shows your status, and once the document is complete it offers **Download signed document**. - If the link shows **This request expired** or **This document was voided**, the request is closed; ask the sender for a fresh copy if it's still needed. - If it says **Not your turn yet**, the document is being signed in a set order — you'll be emailed the moment it's your turn. ## Frequently asked questions ### Do I need an Easerix account? No. The link in your email is your access — you review, fill, and sign entirely in the browser, on any device. ### Is my data safe? Your link is unique to you, and the sender can additionally protect the document with an access code shared with you separately. Repeated failed attempts against signing links are rate-limited. What you enter — your field values and signature — is stored with that document and visible to its sender, and your signing actions are recorded on the document's audit trail with a timestamp and IP address. ### Can I download the document before signing? If you were added as a viewer, yes — there's a download button on your page. As a signer, you can read the full document in the browser before deciding, and you'll receive the final PDF by email once everyone has signed.
