Due diligence and M&A
A sale, a capital injection, an audit or a dispute puts the company’s most confidential documents in front of outside eyes for weeks. Kamzan’s kVDR data room shows them without handing them over: each viewer sees only their part, view-only, with their name watermarked and every opening logged.
Kamzan for due diligence and M&A
The Italian data room, with data that stays in Europe
A due diligence is not an archive: it is a time-limited window, open to people who may be competitors tomorrow. kVDR is built for this. The advisor opens a data room for the deal, structures it with a numbered index that maintains itself and decides, group by group, who sees which folder and with which protection.
Counterparties enter after signing the NDA with kSign, view-only, with their own name watermarked on every page; download and print are blocked where needed. Every question goes through the Q&A and every opening ends up in an audit trail that becomes a certified snapshot at closing. Servers in Europe, domain with the firm’s name.
What a due diligence needs
The needs of the seller, the buyer and the advisors in between.
-
Show without handing over
Accounts, contracts and litigation must be readable by the counterparty but not downloadable, printable or forwardable. If a document leaks, it must say who leaked it.
-
Each party sees only its part
Several bidders in parallel, their lawyers, the auditors, the bank: each with a different perimeter, and none aware of who else is inside.
-
Tight deadlines, many questions
Requests for clarification come in by the dozen and must be assigned, answered and archived next to the document, not in an email chain.
-
Proof of what was there
At closing, or if a dispute arises, you need to prove what was in the data room at that moment and who saw what, when.
From opening the data room to closing
Example: how an advisor runs a sale with several bidders.
-
1 Seller / advisor → Buyer The advisor opens the data room, loads the index from a due diligence template and the documents: numbering (1, 1.1, 1.2…) updates on its own.

2 Buyer → Seller / advisor Each bidder signs the NDA with kSign and receives access for their group: view-only, watermark with their name, no download.

3 Buyer → Seller / advisor Questions go through the data room Q&A, assigned to whoever must answer; every opening, search and reply ends up in the audit trail.

4 Seller / advisor → Buyer At closing the data room is frozen — snapshot with date, time and hash fingerprint — and exported; the deal archive moves to Files for retention.
Files
What you show
The documents a due diligence puts in the data room
Organised by section according to the deal index, with the status of every document: draft, under review, final.
- Articles of association, company registry extracts and corporate books

- Employment contracts, org chart and executive agreements
- Pending litigation and legal opinions
- Trademarks, patents and software licences
- Tax documentation and inspection reports

The seller stays in control, the buyer gets to work
The advisor governs the perimeter; the counterparty finds what it needs at once.
For the seller and the advisor
- One data room per deal, opened from an index template in minutes.
- Group permissions: each bidder sees its part and does not know who else is bidding.
- View-only with named watermark; print and download blocked where needed.
- Audit trail of every opening, search and download, exportable for the deal file.
- Certified snapshot at closing: what was there, with date, time and hash fingerprint.
For the buyer and its advisors
- Enters after signing the NDA, from the browser, with nothing to install.
- Follows the numbered index and finds a document even by asking in its own words.
- Asks questions in the Q&A, next to the document, and sees when the answer arrives.
- Receives new uploads in real time, without chasing emails.
