A Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) template you can customize and download in minutes

A Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA); also called a confidentiality agreement or secrecy agreement is a legally-structured contract that protects sensitive information shared between two parties. Whenever you're about to discuss a deal, partnership, investment, or product idea and need to share trade secrets, financial data, customer lists, or proprietary plans, an NDA keeps that information confidential and sets clear rules for how it can be used.

This NDA template lets you generate a complete, ready-to-sign confidentiality agreement online. Just answer a few simple questions; the names and addresses of both parties, what the deal is about, how long confidentiality should last, and where any dispute would be resolved; and your personalized Non-Disclosure Agreement is generated instantly, ready to download as PDF or Word.

Mutual NDA - protects both sides

This is a mutual (two-way) Non-Disclosure Agreement, meaning both parties can share and receive confidential information and both are equally bound to protect it. That makes it ideal for partnerships, joint ventures, vendor and supplier talks, mergers and acquisitions, and any negotiation where information flows in both directions. If you only need one side protected, you can still use it — simply leave the other party's disclosures out in practice.

What this NDA template includes

- Clear definitions of Confidential Information, Proprietary Information, the Disclosing Party and the Receiving Party

- Confidentiality obligations; how each party must protect, store, copy and restrict access to the other's information

- Permitted disclosures; who is allowed to see the information (advisers, employees, agents) and on what terms

- Forced/legal disclosure rules for when a court or regulator requires disclosure

- Return or destruction of confidential information when discussions end

- A configurable confidentiality term (e.g. two years) with trade secrets protected indefinitely

- Warranties, governing law, and a full arbitration / dispute-resolution clause

- A notices block and a two-signatory signing block for each party

Who is this NDA for?
