This mutual confidentiality agreement (NDA) is the business version of “what happens in the room, stays in the room”. An NDA creates a safe space for two businesses to swap ideas, plans and other confidential information without worrying about it being misused or ending up in the wrong hands. It’s useful for showing another business what’s under the bonnet before you agree to work together. 

Drafted by a senior lawyer, this template comes ready to be populated by you in less than 10 minutes with an easy how-to guide to follow. 

Our template NDA was created with small businesses in mind to minimise negotiations while maximising protection of your business. It includes:

• A schedule for you to populate the commercial details on a case-by-case basis; 

• Clauses to protect each party’s confidential information, including governing disclosures, use and other confidentiality obligations; 

• Definitions of what is considered confidential information to avoid future disputes and to be clear on what is being shared; 

• Editable clauses should you choose to change anything; and

• Format-friendly Word version so you can include your own branding.
