Non-Disclosure & Confidentiality Agreement

From time to time, businesses and people exchange confidential information for the purpose of evaluating the prospect of working together on a joint venture, buying or selling a company, business or asset, and for many other reasons. In disclosing confidential information, the party making the disclosures will want to ensure that the receiving party keeps that information confidential and uses it only for the purpose for which it was disclosed. In order to ensure this, the parties usually enter into a binding confidentiality agreement or non-disclosure agreement (commonly called an “NDA” or Non-Disclosure Agreement).

The terms of this confidentiality agreement regulate the manner in which the receiving party and its representatives deal with the confidential information. Moreover, it offers the disclosing party strong remedies to protect his/her interests in the event that there is a breach of any of the provisions of the confidentiality agreement by either the receiving party or its representatives.

There are some exceptions to the confidentiality requirements under this confidentiality agreement. Where either the receiving party or any of its representatives are required to disclose the confidential information to a regulatory body, to a court or pursuant to an applicable law, it will be permitted to do so provided that (i) the disclosing party is afforded an opportunity to have an input in making that disclosure and (ii) the disclosure is limited to only the information that is required to be disclosed pursuant to the disclosure obligation.

This particular confidentiality agreement is designed for use in circumstances where one party wishes to disclose confidential information to another party for a specific purpose (as described in the confidentiality agreement itself).

Detailed information in relation to each clause of this agreement and on how to complete the agreement are contained in the notes that accompany the agreement.
