Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between unilateral and mutual NDAs?

A unilateral NDA protects information disclosed by one party only. A mutual NDA protects confidential information shared by both parties. Mutual NDAs are slightly more complex and typically cost more.

Do I need additional provisions like non-compete?

It depends on your situation. Non-compete clauses restrict the receiving party from competing. Non-solicitation prevents poaching employees or customers. Your attorney can advise based on your specific needs.

How long should confidentiality obligations last?

Typical periods range from 2-5 years. Trade secrets may warrant indefinite protection. The appropriate duration depends on the type of information and industry standards.

Can you customize NDAs for specific industries?

Yes. The calculator includes options for technology, healthcare, financial services, and other industries. These specialized NDAs include industry-specific provisions and compliance requirements.
