The Non-Disclosure Letter is commonly used in Australian business environments when parties need to establish confidentiality obligations in a more informal format than a full agreement. It's particularly suitable for initial business discussions, due diligence processes, or preliminary negotiations where confidential information needs to be shared. The document typically includes definitions of confidential information, usage restrictions, protection requirements, and duration of obligations, all aligned with Australian privacy laws and common law principles. This format is often chosen over a full NDA when a quicker, more straightforward approach is needed while still maintaining legal enforceability. The letter format makes it particularly appropriate for one-off disclosures or short-term relationships where a comprehensive agreement might be unnecessary.
