Frequently Asked Questions
A well-drafted NDA can be legally binding, but this tool generates a template only. You should have a qualified attorney review any NDA before signing it, particularly for high-value or complex transactions.
A unilateral NDA (like this one) protects information flowing in one direction — from the Disclosing Party to the Receiving Party. A mutual NDA protects information flowing both ways and is used when both parties will be sharing confidential information with each other.
1–3 years is typical for most business NDAs. Perpetual NDAs are rarely enforceable. For trade secrets specifically, the obligation may need to last longer. Consider the sensitivity of the information — a product launch concept needs shorter protection than proprietary technology.
Generally no — NDAs do not require notarisation to be enforceable. Both parties signing is sufficient. That said, some jurisdictions and certain industries (government contracts, real estate) may have specific requirements.
The injured party can seek legal remedies including monetary damages and injunctive relief (a court order to stop the breach). The strength of remedies depends on the jurisdiction and how well the breach can be proven. This is why clearly defining "Confidential Information" and documenting what was shared is important.
