A data room is a secure system for online document storage that can be utilized for sharing and exchanging confidential documents. It is commonly used in the due diligence process of an acquisition, but it is also increasingly used for other reasons, such as fundraising and business restructuring.
Data rooms are created for the purpose of streamlining and supporting the due diligence process. They allow businesses to share sensitive documents with potential partners and investors in a secure deliberatedomain.com/ and easy-to-use environment. They can be used for many different business transactions including mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) and joint ventures, capital raising restructuring, stock market listings and debt financing.
Users are invited by virtue of their contribution or role to the project, by using a list of pre-defined or custom addresses. The user can be granted or restricted access to certain folders, documents or the entire contents of the data room. This ensures that only those with the right to view the information are able to access it and helps stop unauthorised sharing. The audit trails of each user are made available to ensure that all can know who has viewed what and when – vital for legal reasons.
Robust security features include watermarking roles-based access, scans for viruses and data encryption. The system can be set up to meet specific standards of compliance in the legal, biotechnology, and medical fields, including ISO 27001 and GDPR, GCP and HIPAA. This will improve the efficiency of processes and reduce operating costs.
