What is a 3 Way NDA?

This Three Way NDA is designed for situations where confidential information needs to be shared between three distinct parties under German law. It is commonly used in joint ventures, M&A transactions, collaborative projects, or complex business arrangements where multiple parties need access to proprietary information. The document ensures compliance with German legal requirements, including the German Trade Secrets Act (GeschGehG) and GDPR where applicable. It contains comprehensive provisions for protecting confidential information, defining permitted uses, and establishing clear obligations for all parties involved. This type of agreement is particularly important in scenarios where traditional bilateral NDAs would be insufficient due to the multi-party nature of the business relationship.
