Guidelines

What is a permitted use?
The party receiving the confidential information is only allowed to use the information for the stated permitted use.
What is a non-compete clause?
A non-compete clause restricts the receiving party from starting a competing company or disclosing confidential information to competitors. It’s important to note that it cannot prevent people from working for competitors.

A non-solicitation clause restricts the Employee from hiring the employees of the Employer. It is important to note that a court may not uphold this clause if the time period is unreasonably long.
What are the duties of confidentiality?
Duties of confidentiality are the obligations put on the Employee to not reveal any secret or proprietary information belonging to the Employer. These duties can extend beyond the formal end of this Agreement.

Additional Clauses

Additional information is not needed in most cases.

Guidelines

How should I write my clause?
Use plain English. This will reduce confusion. Each extra clause should be one paragraph only.
Defined Terms
Defined Terms:
  • Use of defined terms reduces the possibility of ambiguity in interpreting the document.
  • By legal writing convention terms are defined when they first appear by use of brackets, parentheses and initial capital, e.g. (the "Agreement").
  • Thereafter that word with an initial capital carries the meaning of the defined term.
Additional writing tips
Additional tips:
  • Always use the same name when describing a person or object more than once.
  • Don’t address or contradict an issue that has already been answered in the questionnaire.
  • Don't use "I", "us", "we", "you" or "they" when referring to the parties to the contract. Use the defined terms to avoid confusion.
  • Don’t abbreviate words.
  • Spell-check.

Signing Details

MM slash DD slash YYYY

Guidelines

Are witnesses necessary?
- It is a good idea to have your signatures witnessed even though most documents and contracts do not require a witness for them to be legally valid.
- Many banks and other institutions have their own internal policies about signing requirements, and may refuse to accept documents that are not witnessed regardless of the fact that the documents are legally valid. If you want to avoid bureaucratic hold-ups, it may be a good idea to have your document witnessed.
