Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) Template

An NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement) protects confidential information when you share it with employees, contractors, investors, or partners. DocFila's NDA Builder walks you through the parties, the confidential information, the obligations, the term and the governing law, then produces a PDF you can send for electronic signature. Check the result against your needs; DocFila does not provide legal advice.

What the agreement usually covers

Definition of Confidential Information

Clearly scopes what counts as confidential — trade secrets, financials, customer lists, source code, business plans, and any tagged disclosures.

Obligations of the Receiving Party

Standard non-disclosure, non-use, and reasonable-care obligations with explicit handling and storage requirements.

Permitted Disclosures

Carve-outs for legal/regulatory disclosure, public information, and independently developed information.

Term & Termination

A confidentiality period set in the agreement, with obligations that survive termination.

Return or Destruction of Materials

On request, the recipient returns or destroys the confidential materials.

Remedies & Injunctive Relief

Acknowledges that monetary damages may be inadequate and authorizes injunctive relief.

Governing Law & Jurisdiction

The governing law and jurisdiction you choose.

Common use cases

How to send it for signature in 4 steps

Open the builder

Open DocFila and start the NDA Builder from the contract tools, on web, iOS, or Android.

Fill in the details

Work through the builder's sections (parties, dates, amounts, terms) and edit the wording before you export.

Add signers and send

Send a signature request by email. The signer opens a secure link, consents to sign electronically and verifies with an emailed one-time code. Set the signing order if needed.

Keep the signed copy

The signed PDF is saved to your DocFila documents, which are encrypted at rest, with a certificate of completion and an audit trail. Optionally check its fingerprint with DocFila Verify.

Frequently asked questions

Does an e-signature make this agreement legally binding?

DocFila e-signatures are electronic signatures under the US ESIGN Act and UETA, and simple electronic signatures (SES) under the EU eIDAS Regulation — not advanced (AES) or qualified (QES) electronic signatures. Signing records your consent, an emailed one-time verification code, a hash-chained audit trail, and a tamper-evident seal on the signed PDF. Some documents usually should not be signed electronically — wills, certain court filings, and documents that require notarization or a qualified signature. This is general information, not legal advice: local law and your document type decide what your agreement needs.

Can I edit the agreement?

Yes. In the builder you can edit the fields and the wording before you export the PDF; for an agreement you bring yourself, DocFila's PDF editor can change text and add fields.

Do I need a lawyer to use this?

DocFila does not provide legal advice, and its contract builders have not been reviewed for your jurisdiction or situation. For high-value, cross-border, or regulated transactions, have a lawyer review the final draft.

How much does it cost?

E-signing is included in the DocFila Free plan. Paid plans start at $9.99 a month (Premium) and add AI credits and storage.
