About the non-disclosure agreement (nda)
A non-disclosure agreement, or NDA, is a contract where one or both parties agree to keep shared information confidential. People use it before sharing an idea, a plan, or business details.
This fillable template covers the common parts: who the parties are, what counts as confidential, how long it lasts, and where each party signs.
When you need it
- Before you share an idea with a contractor or partner.
- When two businesses explore working together.
- Before showing sensitive numbers to a potential investor.
Frequently asked questions
Is a template NDA enough?
For routine situations a clear template is often fine. For high-value or complex deals, have a lawyer review it. This template is a convenience, not legal advice.
What is the difference between a one-way and mutual NDA?
A one-way NDA protects information shared by one side. A mutual NDA protects information shared by both.
How long should an NDA last?
It varies. A few years is common for general business information, but pick a period that fits your situation.
