However, an NDA can be used to help protect your intellectual property.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is included in an NDA?<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Non-disclosure agreements vary from case to case. Typically, they state the two (or more) parties involved in the agreement and define what confidential information cannot be disclosed (for instance <a href=\"https:\/\/www.becgroup.com\/what-we-do\/design\/product-design\/\">product designs<\/a>, intellectual property, market strategy) etc. The agreement also states the consequences for leaking any of this specified information. A time period for the NDA to be enforced for is often included- this may be months, years, or indefinitely from when the NDA is signed. There is much more specific information included within an NDA, but this forms the main basis of the contract.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Should I use an NDA?<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>It\u2019s up to you whether you think an NDA is necessary for your project. Many businesses find NDAs to be a clear way to keep sensitive information private with a manufacturer or business partner. It allows for clear consequences for information leakage and is a relatively low-cost measure to implement.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>On the other hand, businesses unused to NDAs may feel it creates an atmosphere of distrust with a new business partner. Additionally, they can be difficult and costly to enforce.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>If you decide you do require an NDA, a solicitor or IP attorney will draw up an agreement based on your precise requirements.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>If you would like to know more about using an NDA with us or need help with a project from our experienced team, get in touch.\u00a0 Either call\u00a0<a href=\"tel:01425613131\">01425 613131<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"mailto:hello@becgroup.com\">email<\/a><strong>.\u00a0\u00a0We\u2019re happy to help!<\/strong><\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Your company have spent months coming up with a cutting-edge design for a product that solves an important problem.
