Non-Disclosure Agreements in France

Tailored for French businesses, from research institutions to individual contractors who deal with sensitive information across various sectors such as finance, technology, and biotech.

French NDAs must specify the confidential data, involved parties, and the duration of confidentiality. Adherence to the French Civil Code and GDPR compliance are critical for legal enforceability.

• In France, NDAs are subject to the French Civil Code, particularly under the laws that govern contractual obligations and civil liability. 
• The French Commercial Code also includes provisions that protect trade secrets, aligning with the EU Directive on Trade Secrets. 
• Data protection is managed under the GDPR and supplemented by the French Data Protection Act.
