The Due Diligence NDA is essential for corporate transactions in New Zealand where one party needs to investigate another's business operations, financial status, and other confidential aspects before proceeding with a potential transaction. This document is commonly used in mergers, acquisitions, investments, and major commercial dealings where sensitive business information needs to be shared. It ensures compliance with New Zealand's legal framework, including the Privacy Act 2020 and Contract and Commercial Law Act 2017, while facilitating necessary information exchange. The agreement typically covers the scope of confidential information, handling requirements, permitted uses, disclosure restrictions, and obligations for information return or destruction.
