Common Mistakes

  • Missing mutual vs. one-way clause — unilateral NDAs only protect one party
  • No clear definition of what counts as "confidential information"
  • No expiration date — perpetual NDAs may be unenforceable
  • Missing carve-outs: publicly known info, info received from third parties
  • No governing law or jurisdiction clause
  • Vague remedies — what happens on breach?
  • Signed by someone without authority to bind the company
