A “Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA)” is a legal contract designed to protect confidential information from being disclosed to unauthorized parties. NDAs are commonly used in business settings to safeguard sensitive information, such as trade secrets, proprietary data, and business strategies. The agreement outlines the obligations of the parties involved to keep the disclosed information confidential and restricts their ability to share it with others.
For example, if a company is negotiating a potential partnership with another firm and needs to share details about their upcoming product launch, they may require the partner to sign an NDA. This ensures that the product details remain confidential until they are officially released.
