This Boilerplate Confidentiality Agreement serves as a fundamental legal instrument for protecting confidential information in business relationships under Hong Kong law. It is designed for use when parties need to share sensitive information during business discussions, negotiations, due diligence processes, or ongoing commercial relationships. The agreement incorporates essential elements required by Hong Kong's legal framework, including compliance with the Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance and common law principles of confidentiality. It provides comprehensive coverage of various types of confidential information, from trade secrets and proprietary business information to personal data, making it suitable for multiple business contexts while maintaining enforceability under Hong Kong jurisdiction. This template is particularly valuable for international business transactions, as it addresses cross-border data transfer considerations while maintaining alignment with Hong Kong's legal requirements.
