NDA e-signature

No NDA, no documents

Write your NDA once in Settings and switch it on for any data room or link. Every guest verifies their e-mail, reads the agreement and signs it electronically before the first document opens – and you both get a PDF confirmation.

Signed before the first page

Data rooms and single document links stay locked – including AI questions and uploads – until the guest signs.

Verified e-mail

Every signer confirms a one-time code sent to their address, so you know who signed – not just who clicked.

PDF confirmation for both sides

Name, company, e-mail, time, IP, country and browser, the exact text and its SHA-256 fingerprint.

Versions

Change the text and every guest signs the new version; earlier signatures stay on record.

EU, US and beyond

A simple electronic signature under eIDAS (EU) and the ESIGN Act / UETA (US), also recognised in the UK, Canada and Australia.

Alerts

E-mail, Slack or webhook the moment someone signs – then watch which pages they read.

How it works
1. Write your NDA once

Settings → NDAs: name it and paste the text. Keep several, e.g. one for investors and one for buyers.

2. Switch it on

In a data room’s Settings or when you edit a link: Require NDA → choose which one.

3. Track everything

See every signature with its PDF confirmation, then page-by-page reading.

NDAs are part of the Unlimited plan and the 3-day trial. Plans & pricing

FAQ

NDA e-signature – questions

Is a click-to-sign NDA legally binding?

In the EU it is a simple electronic signature (eIDAS), which cannot be denied legal effect just because it is electronic; in the US it is an electronic signature under the ESIGN Act and UETA. NDAs have no special form requirement, so this is how most data rooms collect them. For agreements that by law need a handwritten or qualified signature, use a qualified e-signature provider.

What exactly is recorded?

The signer’s name, company, e-mail verified by a one-time code, the date and time, IP address, country and browser, the NDA version and the exact text with its SHA-256 fingerprint. Both sides get the same PDF confirmation.

Can I use my own NDA?

Yes – you paste your own text, in any language, and can keep several NDAs for different deals. HelpRange does not provide or review the agreement and is not a party to it.

Does it work for a single document link?

Yes. Turn on Require NDA when you edit a link: the viewer enters their e-mail, confirms the code we send and signs before the document opens. Their verified e-mail then appears in your view statistics.

What happens when I change the NDA?

It becomes a new version. Guests sign it again the next time they open the room; their earlier signatures stay in the list.

Can I see who signed?

Yes. Settings → NDAs and each data room list every signature with its PDF confirmation, and you can get an e-mail, Slack message or webhook for each one.
