FAQ
A reciprocal, or mutual, nondisclosure agreement protects both parties who are entering into a business relationship through which confidential information will be exchanged.
Violating an NDA leaves you open to lawsuits from your employer, and you could be required to pay financial damages and possibly associated legal costs. It's illegal to reveal trade secrets or sensitive company information to a competitor.
Depending on your needs, you can choose from three types of NDAs: unilateral, bilateral, and unilateral. Unilateral NDAs only require one party to disclose confidential information, while bilateral NDAs require two parties to disclose private information.
Summary A Reciprocal Confidentiality Agreement, otherwise known as a Non-Disclosure Agreement or NDA, can help to protect private, sensitive or confidential information disclosed between two people. This NDA provides for a reciprocal duty of confidentiality.
The employer cannot enforce the agreement until the seven-day revocation period has elapsed, unless the individual has voluntarily waived the right to revoke. If an employer fails to meet all of these requirements, the NDA may be deemed void as against public policy.
In a unilateral NDA, one party agrees to non-disclosure of confidential information belonging to the other party. In a mutual NDA, both parties agree not to reveal the other's confidential information.
Terms within the NDA should be reasonable. If the NDA terms are too broad, courts may refuse to enforce all of them.
NDAs are common across numerous industries. However, such agreements can be used to silence whistleblowers in order to keep illegal activity under wraps. Additionally, NDAs may prohibit the employee from informing the government about the existence of the NDA and the restrictions placed upon them.
NDAs, or non-disclosure agreements, are legally enforceable contracts that create a confidential relationship between a person who has sensitive information and a person who will gain access to that information. A confidential relationship means one or both parties has a duty not to share that information.
The NDA is unreasonably onerous, or too anti-competition. Your actions do not amount to breach of contract, so your former employer has no legal standing. The NDA is not enforceable because it does not comply with Illinois law.
