How to use this Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) in Nevada

Choose 'Mutual' when both sides will share information (partnerships, M&A talks) and 'One-way' for vendors, freelancers or investors receiving your data; tick the employee box for staff and applicants. Keep the confidentiality period to 2–5 years for ordinary information; trade secrets stay protected as long as they remain secret.

Do not use an NDA to prevent someone from reporting harassment or illegal conduct — in Nevada and under federal law such clauses are void and can taint the whole agreement.

Governing-law note: this NDA uses Nevada law and courts; an employee who lives and works in another state may be able to insist on that state's law (e.g., Cal. Lab. Code § 925).

Frequently asked questions

Is an NDA enforceable in Nevada?

Yes, when it protects legitimately confidential information for a reasonable time and purpose. Nevada protects trade secrets under the Nevada Uniform Trade Secrets Act (NRS ch. 600A).

What can an NDA not silence?

pre-dispute sexual harassment/assault claims (federal Speak Out Act, 42 U.S.C. §§ 19401-19404); employee wage/working-condition discussion (NLRA § 7; McLaren Macomb, 372 NLRB No. 58 (2023)); reports to government agencies/whistleblowing (SEC Rule 21F-17; 18 U.S.C. § 1833(b) immunity); settlement provisions preventing disclosure of facts of sexual offenses, discrimination or retaliation (NRS § 10.195); employee wage discussion (NRS § 613.330(1)(c)). Section 4 of this NDA carves these out so the agreement stays enforceable.

Why is the DTSA whistleblower notice included?

Without the notice, an employer cannot recover exemplary damages or attorneys' fees against an employee or contractor under the Defend Trade Secrets Act (18 U.S.C. § 1833(b)).

Can the NDA stop the other side from hiring my employees?

A narrow clause is optional: it covers only employees directly involved in the Purpose, lasts 12 months and is tied to the collaboration, which is what courts and antitrust regulators expect (NRS § 613.195(2)).
