The short answer: you can create, send and sign a non-disclosure agreement online for free with OpenSign™. Build your NDA once as a reusable template, add signer fields, and send it — every signature is legally binding with a timestamped audit trail.
What an NDA should include
- Parties — who is disclosing and who is receiving information.
- Definition of confidential information — what's covered.
- Obligations — how the receiving party must protect it.
- Term — how long confidentiality lasts.
- Exclusions — what isn't confidential.
- Signatures & date — execution by both parties.
This isn't legal advice — for high-stakes agreements, have a lawyer review your template.
