I agree that I owe the Company and such third parties, during the term of my employment and thereafter, a duty to hold all such confidential or proprietary information in the strictest confidence and not to disclose it to any person, firm or corporation (except as necessary in carrying out my work for the Company ...
Typically, a legal professional writing the NDA will complete these steps: Step 1 - Describe the scope. Which information is considered confidential? ... Step 2 - Detail party obligations. Step 3 - Note potential exclusions. Step 4 - Set the term. Step 5 - Spell out consequences.
Confidentiality agreements can run indefinitely, covering the parties' disclosures of confidential information at any time, or can terminate on a certain date or event. Whether or not the overall agreement has a definite term, the parties' nondisclosure obligations can be stated to survive for a set period.
While this kind of time limit is intended to balance the disclosing party's need for secrecy and the receiving party's interest in minimizing its responsibility under the agreement, such expiration dates in NDAs can unintentionally undermine efforts to maintain trade secret protection.
A confidentiality agreement should include the names and addresses of the parties to the contract. Consider also including: Reason for the agreement: Explain why you're sharing this information.

Most confidentiality and nondisclosure agreements provide a specific term of nondisclosure (e.g., one to three years). Some confidentiality and nondisclosure agreements, on the other hand, are open-ended in duration, although they won't be legally enforceable to the extent the confidential information becomes public.
Whereas confidentiality agreements are typically devised in employment or personal situations to protect sensitive information, NDAs are often used in business and legal settings to protect trade secrets, client lists, and financial data.
I understand that any information concerning the identities and information shared by people participating in project-related focus groups, individual interviews, or other needs assessment activities is to be kept confidential at all times.
