Confidentiality Agreements Signed Online: ChuanYu Interactive Starts Overseas Projects Faster

Company Introduction

ChuanYu Interactive (Wuhan) Information Technology Co., Ltd. offers integrated solutions for enterprises going overseas. The company has branches in Singapore, Beijing, Wuhan and Chongqing, and provides services in localisation, translation, global public opinion monitoring, entertainment and game translation.

Its clients are domestic enterprises expanding into overseas markets, and its delivery often involves working with individuals and partners abroad. That combination — a Chinese corporate client, an overseas counterparty, and a confidentiality obligation between them — makes the company a useful reference for service providers whose cooperation depends on getting confidentiality terms signed before work starts.

Business Challenges

1. Confidentiality agreements had to be signed with overseas individuals

ChuanYu Interactive signs confidentiality agreements with domestic enterprises and overseas individuals for localised operation promotion, translation and other service cooperation. The agreement is what allows commercially sensitive material to be shared in the first place, so it sits at the very beginning of the engagement rather than partway through it.

When the agreement depends on printing and posting to reach an individual overseas, the work cannot start until the document has physically travelled. For services that are often project-based, that delay is felt on every new engagement.

2. Signing parties were individuals and companies in different countries

The company’s agreements are signed with both enterprises and individuals, and those signers are located in different countries. A corporate signer may have an established signing process, while an individual signer expects to complete the agreement from a phone or laptop without special arrangements.

Meeting both expectations with paper is difficult. The company has to manage corporate signing conventions and individual convenience at the same time, and any mismatch shows up as a stalled agreement at the start of a project.

3. Branches worked across several markets

With branches in Singapore, Beijing, Wuhan and Chongqing, the company operates across markets with different working hours and different contracting habits. If each branch handles confidentiality agreements locally, the company ends up with several versions of the same process.

For a business that sells integrated overseas solutions, that inconsistency is doubly problematic: it slows the company’s own operations, and it sits awkwardly against a portfolio that emphasises smooth cross-border cooperation.

Solution & Results

1. Confidentiality agreements signed online before work begins

With eSign.AI, ChuanYu Interactive signs confidentiality agreements with domestic enterprises and overseas individuals online. The agreement can be initiated and sent directly to the signer, so the confidentiality step completes without waiting for international mail.

Because the confidentiality agreement gates the start of the engagement, moving it online brings forward the point at which work can begin. For a project-based service business, that is a direct reduction in time-to-start.

2. One signing process for corporate and individual signers

The company signs with both enterprises and individuals through the same electronic process. Because the signing step is uniform, ChuanYu Interactive does not have to maintain a corporate procedure and a separate individual procedure for the same document type.

This matters for a localisation and translation provider, where a single engagement may involve a corporate client on one side and individuals contributing work or materials on the other.

3. Consistent process across branches and markets

Branches in Singapore, Beijing, Wuhan and Chongqing use the same electronic signing process for confidentiality agreements. A consistent process across markets means the company manages one way of preparing, sending and archiving these agreements rather than reconciling several local variants.

For a business whose proposition is helping clients operate smoothly across borders, running its own contracts through a unified process is consistent with what it sells.

Application Impact

ChuanYu Interactive moved confidentiality agreement signing online, so agreements with domestic enterprises and overseas individuals can be concluded without international mail.

Employees and partners across the company’s branches in Singapore, Beijing, Wuhan and Chongqing use one consistent electronic process, regardless of whether the signer is a corporate entity or an individual.

For an enterprise overseas services provider, the outcome is a shorter path from engagement to work start: confidentiality terms are signed online, one process covers both signer types, and the company’s own contracting reflects the cross-border service it provides.
