A non-disclosure agreement, or NDA, is a legal document to protect confidential or commercially sensitive information. YOU NEED TO USE NDAs.

What is a Non-Disclosure Agreement or NDA?

A non-disclosure agreement is a contract to protect confidential or sensitive information during negotiations with investors, creditors, clients, or suppliers. NDAs can also be signed with individuals and employees. For example, a start-up may fear that their idea and plans could be stolen by potential business partners or investors. The NDA serves as written proof, the parties will keep the sensitive information confidential and protected.

Protect your business with non-disclosure agreements.

Why you need an NDA

Having confidentiality in writing, signed by the parties, can lend trust to the negotiations and that your or their ideas won’t be stolen by the people you are negotiating with. It is important to declare and ideally sign upfront, prior to disclosing the information. If appropriate, it may be beneficial to list specific items covered by the agreement, of course without limiting the agreement to those items only.

Different Types of NDA
