Overview


A Confidentiality Agreement (often similar to an NDA) is a legal instrument used to protect "non-public" information. It defines what data is sensitive and limits how that data can be used or shared by the recipient.


Businesses need this when hiring employees, engaging consultants, or discussing partnerships. It is the primary tool for maintaining a "walled garden" around the company's most valuable intangible assets, such as client lists and algorithms.

Under Indian law, these agreements are essential to prove that a party took "reasonable steps" to keep information secret. It covers risks associated with industrial espionage and ensures that any breach has immediate legal and financial consequences.
