Definition of "Confidentiality Agreement"
A Confidentiality Agreement is an agreement that protects confidential information during discussions, proposals, reviews, analysis and negotiations. The agreement allows the disclosing party to share valuable confidential information but retain control over how the information is used by the receiving party. This type of agreement is useful when disclosing information to a potential purchaser, having an invention evaluated, or when an employee will have access to or create confidential information during their employment.
