Non-disclosure letter (unilateral, premium)

This letter template can be used to protect the confidential information that one person discloses to another.

A flexible definition of "confidential information" is included in the document, allowing it to be used in a range of different circumstances. The document also includes an optional limitation upon the purposes for which the confidential information may be used, together with optional post-termination provisions (dealing with the question of what happens to the confidential information once the parties' relationship comes to an end).

This template is substantially identical to our premium one-way NDA template, save that it comes in the form of a letter. A letter format may be more appropriate when dealing with a person who is unaccustomed to signing legal agreements.

Number of document instances

Document templates are the products available for sale on this website; whereas document instances are "clones" of the templates, which you can edit using Docular's online editor and export from the website.

We will update our document templates from time to time, but this will not affect your document instances. When you create a document instance, it will be based upon the latest version of the underlying document template at the time of creation of the instance, irrespective of your date of purchase.

You can save your document instance to our servers at any time, and return to editing later. Once you are happy with your editing, you can export the document and save it to your computer.

Number of websites or digital products

The licences include numerical limits upon: (a) the number of websites (including cloud services) on which documents may be published; and (b) the number of digital products (such as software programs) with which documents may be distributed.

Sub-licences permitted

All of our paid licences allow you to sub-license to a client of yours the right to use a document created using Docular.

When you sub-license that right, it becomes attached to the particular client. The number of sub-licences you may grant is numerically limited and, again, the limitation corresponds to the document instance limitation.

Document licence period

This is the period of the licence to use documents created using and exported from the Docular online editor. In short, the licences do not expire. There are no ongoing licence fees.

Credit for Docular

Each free template includes a textual credit for Docular and/or SEQ Legal (eg "this document was created using Docular") and you must retain that credit in all versions of the document.

Legal T&Cs

For full details of the licensing rules governing the use of Docular templates, instances and exports, see our terms and conditions.
