This Non-Disclosure Agreement is a ready-to-use Word template for protecting confidential business information shared between a company and an individual consultant, adviser or business partner. It suits small and medium-sized businesses, start-ups, investors and consultants who need to formalise confidentiality before exchanging sensitive data. The document opens with the agreement title and a highlighted Effective Date block. The introductory clause identifies the Disclosing Party and the Receiving Party, showing each party's name, jurisdiction and address in separate, clearly marked blocks. Section 1 states the purpose of the disclosure and the Receiving Party's obligations to keep the information strictly confidential, use it solely for the agreed purpose and protect it with reasonable security measures. Section 2 defines the scope of Confidential Information, including business plans, financial information, trade secrets, intellectual property and client data. Section 3 governs disclosures required by law, court order or a governmental authority and obliges the Receiving Party to notify the Disclosing Party promptly and limit the disclosure to the legal minimum. Section 4 sets a three-year term, a five-year survival period for the confidentiality obligations and the duty to return or destroy all information upon termination. The agreement closes with a two-column signature table for both parties, with space for the signature, name and date. All text is fully editable, so the parties, addresses, purpose, dates and terms can be adapted to any transaction in minutes. The template fits on two A4 pages and is available in fifteen design styles with identical content.
