The NDA must necessarily define the following:<\/strong><\/p>

  • what information is considered confidential (program codes, databases, technologies, design, business ideas, the content of agreements, clients, partners, etc.). The list must be complete, specific and unambiguous;<\/li>
  • ways of transferring confidential information;<\/li>
  • what is the illegal disclosure of confidential information, that is, possible ways of its dissemination (in writing, orally, by sending to an email address, uploading to the cloud, etc.);<\/li>
  • acceptable cases of disclosing information;<\/li>
  • data protection measures to be taken (safekeeping of information in a certain way, avoiding of using certain resources)<\/li>
  • NDA validity period (usually 2, 5, 10 years, and the obligation not to disclose confidential information exists both during the term of the main agreement and for some time after its expiration);<\/li>
  • liability for disclosure (usually a fine, reimbursement of the cost of lost information, lost profits). To avoid the need to prove the amount of damage, sanctions for disclosure should be provided in a fixed amount.<\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div>

    NON-COMPETITION AGREEMENT (NCA)<\/strong>\u00a0usually performs several functions: 1) protects the customer\/employer from possible competition from a contractor\/employee who, after the completion of the cooperation, decides to create a business in the same area or the same territory or to work for a direct competitor; 2) prevents leaking of unique knowledge, skills, ideas, customer\/employer technologies, customer contacts, business practices; 3) helps the customer\/employer retain qualified specialists; 4) carries out \u201cpsychological\u201d influence on the employee\/contractor.<\/p>

    The conclusion of the NCA is a normal practice for many countries in Europe (Germany, Netherlands, France, etc.) and the United States (with exceptance of several states). In such case, NCA is subject to the Jurisdiction of a foreign state and protects, first of all, the interests of the customer.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
