FAQs on Non-Disclosure Agreement
What is a Non-Disclosure Agreement?
A non-disclosure agreement (NDA), as stated before, is a contract that helps you rest easy with its focus on ensuring that your business partners or other stakeholders cannot benefit unlawfully from sharing your business secrets with others. It is a legally enforceable contract that prevents any of your business associates from sharing sensitive, confidential, or valuable information with the world at large. It is binding on individuals or entities that routinely have access to such proprietary intellectual or otherwise valuable information like software codes, important procedures, etc. Remember, this is signed by both parties to the agreement on letterheads, indicating the existence of this relationship.
What are the 5 key elements of a non-disclosure agreement?
Of course, as the agreement is a watertight contract that has a lot of sanctity, it must ensure the following key elements. The first is that the agreement must name both the parties; then, there has to be a defined and expressly mentioned meaning of the word confidential; it also has to mention as to the scope of what the receiving party accepts as confidential; exclusions, if any from the ambit of the word, as in the agreement itself, and finally the time for which the agreement will remain in force.
How serious is a non-disclosure agreement?
It is as serious as a breach of law or on the lines of what happens if you break a traffic rule or happen to be involved in a road accident. Just because this is a business matter and some level of intellectual finesse is involved does not make it any less a grave violation of law. It is serious because it hits at the foundation of every business that is TRUST. For instance, businesses expect their suppliers to maintain secrecy on margins. Even governments expect their employees and officers to maintain secrets that may compromise national security.
Is a non-disclosure agreement necessary?
Yes, a non-disclosure agreement is necessary. It is usually a necessity for trade or when two businesses decide to enter into an agreement. It is necessary when you fear that employees, business partners, or any other stakeholder relevant to your line of trade will disclose details that tantamount to hurting your legitimate business interest. It also protects your company when your intellectual property like research, for instance, is leaked out. It could even be your special business plan that leaks out. A non-disclosure agreement prevents all of this and more.
