Owner: HoldField Support · Last reviewed 2026-07-02
Reviewing the document
- Open the Legal area of your workspace.
- Select the NDA that is marked as shared with you.
- Read the document in full. If you have questions, reply in Messages before signing.
Returning a signed copy
- Sign the document using your usual method.
- Upload the signed PDF where the workspace asks for it.
- Confirm submission.
HoldField records the SHA-256 hash and timestamp of the file you upload. A document is only marked signed when that evidence exists — there is no way to mark something signed without it.
This is deliberate: the signed state is backed by evidence, not by someone clicking a button. It protects both sides if the agreement is ever questioned.
