Non-Disclosure and Other Agreements with Outside Entities
If you are approved to work with an outside entity, the entity may require that you sign a Nondisclosure Agreement (NDA) and/or consulting agreement. Please be advised:
- SLAC Legal cannot provide you with legal advice regarding the NDA or consulting agreement.
- You are encouraged to review any such agreement to be sure that it will not prevent or limit your work at Stanford/SLAC. For example, the agreement may specify that you cannot work for a competitor. You may want to consult with your own personal attorney, at your own expense, before entering into any such agreement.
- For Faculty, the Stanford Addendum must be attached to any outside consulting agreement you sign, in accordance with University Policy (see Research Policy Handbook 4.3).
Please email conflictsofinterest@slac.stanford.edu with any questions.
