Previewing an NDA protecting your pitch deck and pricing, to be signed by [Counterparty Name] · drafted 16 September 2026
NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT: drafted 16 September 2026 Protecting: your pitch deck and pricing To be signed by: [Counterparty Name] PARTIES (1) Your business (the "Discloser"); and (2) [Counterparty Name] (the "Recipient"). 1. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION "Confidential Information" means information disclosed in connection with the purpose above, including your pitch deck and pricing, but not information that: (a) is or becomes public through no fault of the Recipient; (b) was lawfully known before disclosure; (c) is independently developed; or (d) is received from a third party free of any duty of confidence. 2. OBLIGATIONS The Recipient will use the Confidential Information only for the agreed purpose, protect it with at least reasonable care, and disclose it only to people who need it and are bound by the same duties. 3. TERM Three (3) years from each disclosure, with trade secrets protected for as long as they stay secret. 4. PERMITTED DISCLOSURES Nothing in this agreement prevents a disclosure required by law. UK agreements signed on or after 1 October 2025 expressly preserve a crime victim's right to speak to the police, regulators, lawyers and support services (Victims and Prisoners Act 2024); US agreements covering employees or contractors carry the DTSA whistleblower notice (18 U.S.C. §1833(b)). Check the details, then edit anything via chat.
MUTUAL NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT: drafted 16 September 2026 If the sharing goes both ways, the protection has to as well. Choose one-way for a two-way conversation and your own disclosures are left uncovered. What changes from the one-way draft: • Both parties are Discloser and Recipient, [Counterparty Name] is bound to protect your information, and you theirs • One definition of Confidential Information covers both sides, including your pitch deck and pricing and whatever they share back • Obligations are symmetric: same standard of care, same permitted recipients, no small print favouring their side • Same three-year term, same standard exclusions, same permitted-disclosure carve-outs When you need this: a pitch that becomes a working session, a partnership or co-build, any due-diligence exchange. GitLaw asks who is sharing what, then drafts the form that matches.
FREELANCER CONFIDENTIALITY PACK: drafted 16 September 2026 Bringing a freelancer or subcontractor onto client work? One NDA is rarely enough: your client expects their secrets protected down the chain, and the work product has to end up owned by you. The pack: 1. One-way NDA (you disclosing), covers your pitch deck and pricing and your client's materials in the freelancer's hands 2. IP & confidentiality rider, work product assigned to you, with a moral-rights waiver where the law allows 3. Return & destruction schedule, files, credentials and copies handed back or destroyed when the engagement ends Jurisdiction-aware: the US version carries the DTSA §1833(b) whistleblower notice, the statute expressly covers contractors and consultants, and the UK version keeps the reporting carve-outs regulators expect. Sign up free and GitLaw drafts all three, matched to the engagement.

Follow the information. If only one side is sharing secrets, use a one-way NDA in the discloser's favour. If both sides will share, a pitch that becomes a working session, a partnership, a co-build, use a mutual NDA. Picking one-way when the sharing is two-way is the most common template mistake: your own disclosures end up unprotected.
One to five years from disclosure is typical for ordinary business information; three years is a common default. Indefinite confidentiality is generally reserved for genuine trade secrets, which stay protected for as long as they are kept secret. An open-ended term over ordinary information can make an NDA harder to enforce, not stronger.
A signed NDA is a contract in both the US and the UK, templates included. The real risk is fit, not validity: the wrong direction, a vague definition of confidential information, or missing current-law wording (the US DTSA notice, the UK’s 2025 victim carve-outs) can leave you with an agreement that covers less than you expected.
Usually, yes. Platform terms and implied duties are weak substitutes for a signed confidentiality agreement, and clients often contractually require you to bind your subcontractors. In the US, note that the DTSA's whistleblower-notice requirement expressly covers contractors and consultants, so US drafts for contractors should include it.
No, and it shouldn't try. In England and Wales, NDAs signed on or after 1 October 2025 are unenforceable to the extent they stop a victim of criminal conduct speaking to the police, regulators, qualified lawyers or support services (Victims and Prisoners Act 2024). US federal law likewise protects confidential whistleblower disclosures of trade secrets to the government (18 U.S.C. §1833(b)). GitLaw's US and UK templates include these carve-outs.
You can claim damages for the loss the breach caused, and courts can grant injunctions to stop further disclosure, often the remedy that matters most, since a secret can't be un-shared. Trade-secret statutes (the DTSA and state UTSA laws in the US; breach of confidence in the UK) can add further remedies. The practical first step is usually a firm letter. GitLaw drafts that too.
Usually not at the first conversation, many buyers won't sign pre-pitch NDAs, and insisting can cost you the room. The working convention: pitch the ideas, then introduce a mutual NDA at the point real technical or commercial detail starts changing hands. If the pitch itself is the secret, a formula, a working build, get the NDA first and say why.
Whatever the definition clause captures, which is why it's the clause most worth tailoring to your situation. Standard exclusions in both countries: information that is already public (through no fault of the recipient), known before disclosure, independently developed, or lawfully obtained from someone else. Disclosures required by law or a court are also carved out.
