What Is A Confidentiality Agreement?
A confidentiality agreement is a type of contract that protects intellectual property, trade secrets, or other information from being disclosed. In many professions, employers require their employees to sign confidentiality agreements to protect their proprietary information. Inventors, entrepreneurs and other professionals may require business partners to sign confidentiality agreements as well.
A confidentiality agreement can be customized to offer the specific type of protection that is needed. At Coodin & Overson, PLLP, we work with our clients to understand their needs, then we customize a confidentiality agreement accordingly.
What Are The Benefits Of A Confidentiality Agreement?
There are many benefits of a confidentiality agreement:
- Protection from disclosure of intellectual property (including trade secrets, proprietary information, and other confidential information)
- More legal protections and options if another party does infringe on a patent or otherwise use protected information
In order to be most effective, a confidentiality agreement must be specific and detailed. These types of contracts can be used to protect a wide variety of information, from formulas, recipes, inventions, trade secrets and much more. We can help you draft a nondisclosure agreement that prohibits improper use of your intellectual property while setting you up for success in your business or entrepreneurial endeavor.
We also help clients draft noncompete agreements.
