NDA
What is NDA?
A Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) is a formal legal document commonly used when two or more parties share sensitive or proprietary information - such as product concepts, pricing structures, marketing strategies, or technology integrations.
In the context of Amazon:
- Vendors, sellers, service providers, or third-party developers may be asked to sign an NDA before participating in beta programs, strategic planning, or private label deals
- NDAs help protect Amazon’s internal tools, algorithms, and unreleased features
- Similarly, sellers and vendors may require NDAs when collaborating with agencies, developers, or manufacturers
What an NDA typically includes:
- Definition of confidential information
- Duration of confidentiality
- Restrictions on use and disclosure
- Legal remedies for breach of agreement
Why NDA matters:
- Protects trade secrets and business strategies
- Builds trust in partnerships and collaborations
- Required for early access to new tools or programs
- Helps prevent competitive leaks
💡 Example: A brand working with Amazon Launchpad signs an NDA before accessing unreleased marketing features and internal sales projections.
In short:
NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement) is a legal contract that protects sensitive business information from being shared - commonly used in Amazon partnerships, programs, and strategic projects.
