02 — How it works
NDAs aren’t complicated; they’re standard. The template covers 90%+ of real-world use cases. For high-stakes or cross-border deals, run the DOCX past counsel before signing.
Mutual NDAs cover both sides exchanging information. One-way NDAs cover situations where only one party discloses (e.g. pitching to investors).
Parties, purpose, term, governing law. Toggle which standard clauses to include — non-solicit, injunctive relief, return/destruction.
Signature-ready PDF and an editable DOCX. Print and sign, or send for e-signing through your preferred tool.
03 — Built for everyday deals
Mutual NDAs are most common (partnerships, M&A talks). One-way NDAs are for pitches, hires, and vendor evaluations.
Broad covers "all non-public information". Specific lists exact categories — useful when only a narrow slice should be protected.
1, 2, 3, 5, or 7 years — or indefinite (until publicly disclosed). Trade secrets often need indefinite; commercial info usually 2-3 years.
Standard clause for return on request, with destruction certified by an officer. Toggle each on/off independently.
Optional clauses for 12-month non-solicit of the other party's people, and the right to seek court orders for breaches.

04 — Common questions
Mutual when both sides will share information (partnership talks, joint ventures, M&A discussions). One-way when only one side discloses (pitching to investors, hiring an evaluator, vendor evaluations). Mutual is more common in practice.
Commercial info: 2-3 years is standard. Strategic plans / pricing: 3-5 years. Trade secrets: indefinite (since trade secret protection itself is indefinite). Avoid going much longer than necessary — courts may not enforce overly long terms.
Return is the traditional approach. Destruction (with written certification) is more practical now that most data is digital. Allowing either, at the disclosing party's election, gives maximum flexibility.
It gives the disclosing party the right to ask a court for an emergency order stopping the receiving party from continuing a breach — without having to wait through normal litigation or prove monetary damages. Standard for trade-secret protection.
Generally yes — NDAs are enforceable in most common-law and many civil-law jurisdictions. The governing-law clause picks which courts apply. For high-value cross-border deals, get local counsel to review before signing.
