- What happens after you cancel
- DOWNLOAD YOUR SIGNED DOCUMENTS FIRST. Everything you have executed through DocuSign — the signed PDFs and the certificates of completion that prove who signed and when — lives in the account, and the account is what you are ending. Those certificates are the audit trail that makes an electronic signature defensible, so take copies of both, not just the PDFs. The signatures themselves remain legally valid after you cancel; ending the subscription does not undo a signed agreement. What you lose is the place they are stored. Self-service plans cancel from Plan and Billing. Annual plans run to the end of the term and auto-renew, so the renewal date is the thing to find; negotiated agreements are handled by a representative and follow whatever notice the contract sets rather than a standard rule.
