Saver API - SSL v3 handshake failure

I'm using the Saver API (saver js dropin) and been receiving an SSL v3 related error when attempting to save a file to Dropbox: Error Dropbox transfer: Error downloading http://sejda.com/path/to/...

If I try to GET http://sejda.com/path/to/file.pdf, I get redirected to https://sejda.com/path/to/file, so I imagine that's why HTTP isn't working either. (It's just being redirected to HTTPS and then failing.)

As to the underlying cause, on my computer, I get the same SSL cert when using curl. When I use the latest version of the requests library in Python, I get this error:

requests.exceptions.SSLError: hostname 'sejda.com' doesn't match either of 'ssl2000.cloudflare.com', 'cloudflare.com', '*.cloudflare.com'

I don't get an error in my browser, where the SNI setup on the cert seems to work okay. We will investigate a bit more this coming week to try to understand how we can handle an SSL setup like yours.
