Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between mutual and unilateral NDAs?
A mutual NDA binds both parties when both are sharing sensitive information. A unilateral (one-way) NDA applies only to the receiving party when one party is disclosing proprietary data.
How long does an NDA typically last?
Most commercial NDAs specify a term between 1 and 5 years (typically 2 to 3 years), with trade secret protections continuing as long as the information remains a trade secret.
