Where it fits
Use this when only one side shares information. If both sides will share, use a mutual NDA. For staff or contractors, put confidentiality terms in their employment or services agreement.
Before you rely on it
Original Centilio wording, plain and fair to both sides, not legal advice. Check that the number of years suits the information you will share. Have a lawyer where your organisation is based confirm the governing law and how trade secrets and injunctions are treated there before you approve it.
