Background Confidentiality Information

A confidentiality agreement is a legally binding contract entered into between at least two parties in order to restrict the ability of the parties to use information that has been provided by the parties to each other.
In the course of conducting business many situations will arise where it becomes necessary to share confidential of sensitive information with another person or business. Sharing any confidential information usually requires that each party has a lot of trust in the other.
With business arrangements the circumstances are often such that there is not the time or opportunity to establish that trust. For this reason it is common for businesses to put in place a confidentiality agreement. These agreements regulate and set out the rights of each party in relation to the confidential information that has been disclosed.

The agreement will outline the reason behind the disclosure of confidential information and how they expect the recipient of confidential information to use the information. A confidentiality agreement is essential for any UK business because in the United Kingdom there is no law of confidentiality, which would otherwise protect the disclosure of confidential information.

Our Confidentiality Agreement Templates

A team of specialist Solicitors created the above range of confidentiality agreement templates to cover a variety of situations and to make sure that they are water tight.

If just one party will be disclosing confidential information then we suggest that you use our One Way Confidentiality Agreement. This agreement assumes that only one party to the agreement will be disclosing confidential information and imposes restrictions on the receiving party's use of the confidential information. Where both parties will be exchanging confidential information a Mutual Confidentiality Agreement is appropriate.

The variety of situations in which a business may require a confidentiality agreement are very broad. For this reason both of these confidentiality agreements can be easily customized to cover amost any situation where an agreement needs to be put in place.
