How to write an NDA
A non-disclosure agreement is only as strong as its definitions. These are the decisions that determine whether yours actually protects your information.
Decide one-way or mutual
If only one side is sharing secrets, a one-way (unilateral) NDA is enough. If both sides will exchange confidential information, use a mutual NDA so each is protected.
Define confidential information precisely
Be specific about what's covered: business plans, customer lists, source code, pricing, designs. An overly broad definition like “everything we tell you” is harder to enforce than a clear, scoped one.
Carve out the exclusions
Standard NDAs exclude information that's already public, that the receiver already knew, or that they develop independently. These carve-outs keep the agreement reasonable and enforceable.
Set obligations and permitted use
State exactly what the receiving party must do (keep it secret, limit access) and what they may use the information for. The narrower the permitted use, the more protection you keep.
Choose a term, add remedies, and sign
Set how long the duty lasts (often one to five years, sometimes indefinitely for trade secrets), add a remedies clause, name your governing state, and have both parties sign and date it.
For high-stakes confidentiality, have a licensed attorney review the final NDA or start from a lawyer-reviewed NDA template.
NDA generator questions

How does the AI NDA generator work?
Describe the disclosing and receiving parties, what information is confidential, and how long it must be protected. The AI drafts a complete NDA. Definitions, obligations, exclusions, term, and signature blocks, which you then edit and download.
Is an AI-generated NDA legally binding?
An NDA is generally binding once both parties with capacity sign it and agree to its terms. Our drafts are a strong starting point, not legal advice; for high-stakes confidentiality, have a licensed attorney review the final agreement.
What’s the difference between a mutual and one-way NDA?
A one-way (unilateral) NDA protects information one party discloses to another. A mutual NDA protects confidential information that both parties share. Common when two businesses explore a deal. Just say which you need and the AI structures it accordingly.
Can I edit and download the NDA?
Yes. The NDA is fully editable. Click anywhere to change party names, definitions, the term, or any clause, then download a PDF or Word file.
Is this legal advice?
No. FormsPal is not a law firm and the drafts are for informational purposes only. For tailored advice, consult a licensed attorney; for a vetted starting point, use a lawyer-reviewed NDA template.
How long should an NDA last?
It depends on the information. One to five years is common for general business confidentiality, while trade secrets are often protected for as long as they stay secret. Set whatever term fits in your description and the AI writes it in.
What information can't an NDA protect?
An NDA generally can't cover information that's already public, that the receiving party already knew, that they develop independently, or that a court orders disclosed. Standard NDAs include these exclusions so the agreement stays enforceable.
What happens if someone breaks an NDA?
The wronged party can usually sue for damages and ask a court for an injunction to stop further disclosure. That's why a remedies clause matters, and the AI includes one covering both monetary damages and injunctive relief.
Do both parties have to sign?
Yes. An NDA binds whoever signs it, so every party with access to the confidential information should sign and date it. For a mutual NDA both sides sign; for a one-way NDA, at minimum the receiving party must.
Do I need a lawyer for an NDA?
For routine confidentiality, a well-structured NDA like the ones here is usually enough. For high-value deals, sensitive trade secrets, or cross-border arrangements, have a licensed attorney review the final agreement.
