Legal-Grade Security

Audit Trails Built for Litigation and Due Diligence

Every contract signed through Zignature carries a tamper-evident audit trail: signer identity, IP address, timestamps, document hash, and certificate of completion. Designed to survive discovery and due diligence review.

  • Cryptographic sealing — Document hash embedded — any post-signing modification is immediately detected.
  • Certificate of completion — Downloadable legal certificate for every signed document.
  • Advanced authentication — Knowledge-based auth, SMS OTP, and ID verification for high-stakes documents.

  • CLM-triggered signing — When a draft is approved in your CLM, Zignature automatically dispatches for signature.
  • Executed PDF return — Signed document and audit trail auto-returned to the CLM record on completion.
  • Obligation tracking — Post-signing obligations and renewal dates extracted and sent to CLM.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know.

Are Zignature's audit trails sufficient for litigation purposes?

Yes. Zignature's audit trails capture the signer identity, IP address, device fingerprint, timestamp, and document hash for each signing event. These are presented in a certificate of completion format that courts and regulators accept as evidence of the agreement.

Does Zignature support internal legal approval workflows?

Yes. Zignature's approval routing lets you define sequential internal steps — legal review, GC approval, CFO sign-off — that must all be completed before the document is sent to counterparties for execution.

How does Zignature handle board resolutions requiring director signatures?

Board resolution templates support sequential or parallel signing by all required directors. Quorum tracking shows when sufficient directors have signed, and the system blocks completion until the minimum required signatures are collected.

Can we integrate Zignature with our CLM (Ironclad, Contractbook, etc.)?

Yes. Zignature integrates with CLM platforms via REST API and webhooks. When a contract moves to 'approved' status in your CLM, a webhook triggers Zignature to send for signature. The executed PDF and audit trail are returned to the CLM record automatically.

What authentication options are available for high-value contracts?

Zignature supports email link authentication (standard), SMS OTP, knowledge-based authentication (KBA), and government ID + selfie verification via Stripe Identity. Legal can configure authentication levels per template based on document risk profile.

How do we manage privilege and confidentiality of signed documents?

Zignature supports granular access controls so legal documents are visible only to authorised team members. All data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and access logs provide a full record of who viewed each document for privilege management.
