Protect your confidential information with an NDA built for Ontario law. Includes mutual and one-way options, proper confidentiality definitions, and clauses that Ontario courts consistently enforce.
Mutual or one-way NDA options

Permitted disclosures and exceptions
Return or destruction of confidential information clauses
Non-circumvention and non-solicitation provisions
Injunctive relief and remedies
Term and survival clauses
Ontario governing law and jurisdiction
Generic "Canadian" templates from LawDepot don't account for Ontario's unique employment laws. Our non-disclosure agreement (nda) includes:
Confidentiality definitions that Ontario courts recognize and enforce
Proper exceptions for information already known or independently developed
Injunctive relief language that satisfies Ontario's equitable remedies requirements
Non-solicitation clauses that comply with Ontario employment law (if used with employees)
Governing law clause specifying Ontario law and Ontario courts
Survival provisions that extend beyond termination
Remedies that include both damages and equitable relief
Use a mutual NDA when both parties will share confidential information (e.g., partnership discussions, M&A negotiations). Use a one-way NDA when only you're disclosing information (e.g., hiring contractors, pitching investors). Our template lets you choose during generation.
Yes, when properly drafted. Ontario courts enforce NDAs that have clear confidentiality definitions, reasonable scope, and proper exceptions. Our NDA includes language that Ontario courts have consistently upheld in breach cases.
Yes, but be cautious with non-solicitation clauses. Ontario's Working for Workers Act (2021) restricts non-compete clauses for employees (though confidentiality obligations remain enforceable). Our NDA includes employee-appropriate language that complies with Ontario employment law.
Most NDAs have 2-5 year terms for confidentiality obligations. Trade secrets can be protected indefinitely. Our template lets you customize the term based on your needs, with survival clauses that extend obligations beyond termination.
LawDepot's NDAs use generic language that doesn't account for Ontario's specific case law on enforceability. We include proper exceptions, remedies, and governing law clauses that Ontario courts recognize. Plus, no subscription—pay once, own forever.
