This Non-Mutual NDA is essential for businesses operating in Hong Kong who need to share sensitive information with other parties while maintaining strict control over its use and dissemination. The document is particularly relevant in contexts such as business negotiations, potential partnerships, vendor relationships, or when engaging consultants or service providers. It reflects Hong Kong's sophisticated business environment and legal framework, incorporating provisions from relevant ordinances and common law principles. The agreement is structured to provide robust protection for the Disclosing Party, with clear obligations for the Receiving Party regarding the handling, protection, and eventual return or destruction of confidential information.
