What Is Audit Trail?
Every document signed through BoloSign generates a comprehensive, tamper-proof audit trail that records who signed, when they signed, their IP address, email address, device information, and a timestamp of every action taken on the document (sent, viewed, signed, declined). The audit trail is attached as a Certificate of Completion to every signed document, providing court-admissible evidence of the signing event.
How Does Audit Trail Work?
Audit trails are generated automatically - no configuration required. Every action on a document is logged: document creation, sending, recipient viewing, field completion, signature placement, and final completion. The audit trail includes cryptographic hash verification to prove the document has not been modified after signing. Download the Certificate of Completion from any completed document in your dashboard.
How Teams Use Audit Trail
Legal defensibility if a signature is challenged in court
Regulatory compliance documentation (HIPAA, SOX, GDPR)
Internal audit records for compliance teams
Proof of consent for healthcare and financial services
Insurance claims documentation with timestamped evidence
Why BoloSign's Audit Trail Is Different
All platforms offer audit trails, but BoloSign's includes IP addresses, device info, and cryptographic verification at no extra cost.
