Sign NDAs Online — Keep Confidential Documents Private

An NDA is designed to keep information confidential. Yet most online signing tools require you to upload the document to their servers — meaning a third-party company now has a copy of the very agreement that was meant to remain private. Their employees may have access. Their servers may be compromised. Their data retention policies may keep your NDA stored for years.

SigPDF eliminates this contradiction entirely. When you sign an NDA with SigPDF, your document is processed using client-side JavaScript inside your own browser. The PDF file is never transmitted over the internet, never stored on a remote server, and never accessible to anyone but you. Your confidential agreement stays confidential.

When You Need to Sign an NDA

NDAs appear at nearly every stage of business. Common scenarios where you will need to sign a non-disclosure agreement include:

• Job interviews and hiring — Employers often require candidates to sign an NDA before sharing details about proprietary projects, products, or strategies during the interview process.
• Freelance and contractor work — Before starting a project, clients frequently ask freelancers to sign an NDA covering trade secrets, client lists, or unreleased products.
• Investment and fundraising — Startups share business plans, financial projections, and technical details with potential investors under NDA protection.
• Partnerships and collaborations — When two companies explore a joint venture, both sides typically sign mutual NDAs before exchanging proprietary information.
• Mergers and acquisitions — Due diligence processes involve sharing deeply sensitive financial, legal, and operational data under strict NDA terms.

Legal Validity of Electronically Signed NDAs

An NDA signed electronically is just as enforceable as one signed with pen and paper. The legal frameworks that govern electronic signatures explicitly cover this:

• ESIGN Act (United States) — Electronic signatures on NDAs are legally binding and enforceable in all 50 states.
• eIDAS Regulation (European Union) — A simple electronic signature, such as one created with SigPDF, cannot be denied legal effect solely because it is in electronic form. This applies across all EU and EEA member states.
• UK, Canada, Australia — Each has equivalent legislation (Electronic Communications Act, PIPEDA, Electronic Transactions Act) recognizing the validity of electronic signatures on confidentiality agreements.

If a dispute ever arises, your electronically signed NDA carries the same evidentiary weight in court as a traditional wet-ink signature. Learn more about e-signature legal validity.
