Locking car

This might seem a dumb question. But does touching the touch sensitive door handles set/activate the alarm. Or do you need to literally press the door locking button on the key fob. I understand that pressing the switch in the drivers door bin deactivates the alarm.
It came to my mind am I leaving my car " unarmed" or does the alarm set/activate by either of the two methods I mentioned above?.
