Note: The CLA Signatory does not need to have a Linux Foundation Single Sign-On (SSO) account to sign a corporate CLA.
To sign the CCLA, after someone else has coordinated the CCLA signing process and designated you to sign:
1. Look in your email inbox for a CLA Sign Request email and open the email.
2. Click the link in the email to review and sign CLA. The "Preparing CCLA" dialog opens.
3. After the CCLA preparation is complete, click Sign CCLA.
Result: You will be redirected to complete the DocuSign process.
4. Select the check box to agree to use electronic signatures, and click Continue. Follow the instructions in the DocuSign document to fill in the required fields, sign the CCLA, and click Finish.
After signing the CCLA, you will receive an email from The Linux Foundation confirming that it was signed.
You can download the signed PDF document by clicking the link from that email, where you will be redirected to The Linux Foundation's website. If the download doesn't start automatically, click Proceed to Download.
A corporate CLA signatory, or CCLA signatory is someone who is authorized to sign a CCLA on behalf of their company.
If the CCLA signatory is the same person as the initial CLA Manager, then they will sign the CCLA themselves while coordinating the CCLA signing process.
Otherwise, if the CCLA signatory is a different person than the initial CLA Manager, then the CCLA signatory will receive an email informing them that they are designated to be an authorized signatory for a company. The CCLA signatory can review and sign the CCLA on behalf of the company.
