Contractor Sensitive Information Clause Samples
The "Contractor Sensitive Information" clause defines how confidential or proprietary information belonging to the contractor must be handled by the other party. It typically outlines the types of information considered sensitive, such as business processes, technical data, or trade secrets, and sets requirements for safeguarding this information from unauthorized disclosure or use. By establishing clear boundaries and obligations regarding the treatment of sensitive contractor data, this clause helps protect the contractor’s competitive advantage and mitigates the risk of information leaks.
