What SignThis can see in your Drive
Only the single file you open with SignThis. It asks Google for per-file access, not access to your Drive.
It cannot list, read or search your other files or folders.
It does not change, move or delete the file in your Drive. The signed copy is emailed to everyone and kept in SignThis.
Google's access token is used for that one download and is not stored.
The Privacy Policy describes this in full. See also SignThis for Gmail.
Common questions
How much does it cost?
The integration itself is free. You can send up to 5 documents during your first 40 days with no payment card; after that, plans start at $5 a month, billed monthly. See every plan and its limits.
Does SignThis work with Google Docs files?

How large can the PDF be?
Up to 5 MB and 60 pages, so the signed copy can be emailed to everyone.
Can I sign a PDF in Drive myself, without sending it?
Yes. Add yourself as the only signer, or use the free Sign a PDF page, which adds your signature in your browser without uploading the file.
Do the people I send to need an account?
No. Each signer gets a personal email link and signs in their browser, on a phone or a computer.
