While I can't say for everyone else, for myself I can, when I left the
military I was required to attend a debrief for things that could not be
confirmed or denied. I guess it was to make sure I knew what was repeatable
and what was not based on my own history.
My daddy (also former military) used to tell me quite clearly - If I did not
see it myself then how could I verify the veracity of something. Everything
else may or not be true or false.
I can tell everyone without a doubt that they may very well encounter words
such as "A", "The", "If" "When", etc. Hope that didn't break the NDA too
much,
If a person had never encountered a question on his or her lab, how can that
person disclose it? Can't be done by definition.
So I guess it is hard for a person to break an NDA if a word, question,
example, etc. were never agreed to have been part of a givn NDA.
Now the person who confirms or denies such a thing (and did see such a thing
for example on the lab) would have broken the confidentiality agreement by
confirming or denying such information.
Here's a common definition of the term:
Non-disclosure agreement From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-disclosure_agreement#column-one>,
search <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-disclosure_agreement#searchInput>
A *non-disclosure agreement* (NDA), also known as a *confidentiality
agreement*, *confidential disclosure agreement* (CDA), *proprietary
information agreement* (PIA), or *secrecy agreement*, is a
legal<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law>
contract <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contract> between at least two
parties <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Party_(law)> that outlines
confidential materials or knowledge the parties wish to share with one
another for certain purposes, but wish to restrict access to. It is a
contract through which the parties agree not to disclose information covered
by the agreement. An NDA creates a confidential relationship between the
parties to protect any type of confidential and proprietary information or a
trade secret <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trade_secret>. As such, an NDA
protects non-public business information.
NDAs are commonly signed when two
companies<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Company_(law)>or
individuals <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Individual> are considering doing
business and need to understand the processes used in each others business
for the purpose of evaluating the potential business relationship. NDAs can
be "mutual", meaning both parties are restricted in their use of the
materials provided, or they can restrict the use of material by a single
party.
It is also possible for an employee to sign an NDA or NDA-like agreement
with an employer. In fact, some employment agreements will include a clause
restricting employees use and dissemination of company-owned "confidential
information." NDAs are used in the IT field, and are often given directly
prior to taking a certification exam.
In rare cases, the contract may state that the existence of the NDA itself
cannot be disclosed.
