What is NDA?

Risk: Low to Medium. Depends heavily on scope and duration.

Definition

A contract requiring parties to keep specified information confidential. One-way NDAs protect only one party's information. Mutual NDAs protect both. Watch for vague definitions of confidential information, excessive duration, and clauses that prevent you from discussing your own work.
