Non-Disclosure Agreements can be mutual or one-sided. A one way Non-Disclosure agreement, also referred to as a unilateral NDA, is used when only one party is agreeing to protect the other party's confidential information. While a mutual Non-Disclosure Agreement is used when both parties are agreeing to protect confidential information. Find the template for a mutual NDA and read more about the difference between a mutual and unilateral Non-Disclosure Agreements here.
