Non-disclosure agreement (unilateral, standard)

This non-disclosure agreement will help protect confidential information that one person or organisation supplies to another. The core provisions of the agreement include a definition of confidential information, restrictions on the use and disclosure of that information, exceptions to those restrictions and rules regarding the treatment of that information upon termination of the agreement.

This document is standard length, omitting some of the provisions included in our premium non-disclosure agreements; and it is unilateral, inasmuch as it will protect the information of only one of the parties to the agreement.

You should consider the premium version of this document if you require warranty provisions, provisions regarding publicity and/or IPR provisions.

You should consider the mutual version of this document if you need to protect the confidential information of both parties to the agreement.

Non-disclosure agreements

We do not limit the number of copies of a template you can make on your own computer. Nor do they limit the number of times you can print and sign a document. We do however limit the number of copies of a template you can create in the Docular editor, and also the number of websites / digital products with respect to which a template may be used.

There are four different licences under which you can access a Docular template.

	Free licence	Standard licence	Extended licence	Professional licence
Number of document instances	1	1	5	25
Number of websites or digital products	1	1	5	25
Sub-licences permitted	None	1	5	25
Document licence period	No expiry	No expiry	No expiry	No expiry
Credit for Docular	Yes	No	No	No

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 (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.
