"A revelation! The gold standard in simple, secure, legal documentation. So pleased I will never have to go back to exorbitant fees and haughty service."
WHY YOU NEED A CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT
If you disclose confidential information to another business, you should put a Confidentiality Contract in black & white. It will help you protect your information so it is only used for a specific purpose and only shared on a need-to-know basis.
You can use this Agreement to stop people stealing your business and protect your intellectual property
Likewise, if you’re asking another party to give you their confidential information, you can offer to sign a Confidentiality Agreement so they feel more comfortable talking to you.
WHEN TO USE THIS CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT
This Confidentiality Agreement (also called an NDA or Non Disclosure Agreement) can be used for most businesses who are sharing confidential information with each other.
You can use Legal Zebra's downloadable Template to put a basic legally binding Confidentiality Agreement in place, instantly.
The Legal Zebra Template is up to date and suitable for use in all States and Territories of Australia including NSW, VIC, ACT, WA, SA, NT, Tasmania and Queensland. Many people outside Australia also use this document because it's so easy to use.
If your confidentiality arrangements are complicated, or the transaction has substantial value, you should seek personalised advice from a lawyer and accountant.
Here are some examples of when to use our Confidentiality Agreement Template...
Example: Confidentiality Agreement for Sale of Business
We are giving price lists, supplier and customer information to a party who is interested in buying our business. We want to make sure that they don't use this information if they don't go ahead with the purchase. We need some protection in case they are just "tyre kickers" snooping around for our company secrets.
Example: Developing a new product with a manufacturer
As a developer of cosmetic products, I need a simple agreement with my manufacturers. We work together to develop the products. I need to protect my recipes. So we need a confidentiality agreement.
Example: Pitching a new business idea or concept
Our startup is regularly pitching to potential investors, employees and strategic partners. Sometimes we even pitch to competitors. We want to make sure they don't steal our ideas. So, we just need a simple One Way Non Disclosure Agreement that's fair for both parties.
WHAT'S COVERED IN THIS CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT TEMPLATE
Legal Zebra's Australian Confidentiality Agreement Template includes these important provisions...
DESCRIBE YOUR SECRET INFO
Include details of your specific confidential information (customer lists, pricing, business plans, etc) so there's no dispute about what should be kept secret.
PROTECTS BOTH PARTIES INFO
This is a one-way (one party disclosing) confidentiality agreement so it protects the disclosing parties information.
CHOOSE YOUR JURISDICTION
State where you want disputes heard. For example, choose NSW if you live there so you won't have to travel if there is a dispute about the agreement.
GET YOUR INFORMATION BACK
Under the Agreement, you can require the other party to return your information (drawings, plans, pictures, etc) when you finish dealing with them.
ONGOING PROTECTION
This Confidentiality Agreement will continue until neither party holds any more confidential information.
CUSTOMISE WITH ADDITIONAL TERMS
You can customise this Confidentiality Agreement with your own additional terms.

I am happy to give a recommendation to Legal Zebra. Their lawyer, Shanti, explained the protection I can get from a confidentiality agreement and how to describe my information. Thanks.
I was working in an architect's office where a lot of subcontractors were being brought in to put together a proposal. It was crucial the project stayed watertight until it was formally released. I uploaded this document for our freelancers to sign so they knew we were very serious when we said no facebook posts, no tweets, no informal or formal disclosure until the project was officially public. All made legally binding without the heavy fees 🙂
Many thanks for the glowing review on the Confidentiality Agreement Template Laura.
Just what I was looking for. Thank you for making it easy for me.
Once again, legal zebra has come through with the goods! A concise confidentiality agreement, that covers all bases. I'll never go elsewhere for legal documents again.
