- This is a template, not legal advice, and buying it does not create an attorney-client relationship. Have a licensed attorney in your state review the finished document, especially for large projects or unusual terms.
Your customer lists and know-how are among your most valuable assets. In California, where non-competes are restricted, a strong confidentiality agreement is one of your best protections.
This Employee Confidentiality Agreement protects the sensitive information of renewable energy businesses, including customer lists and proprietary knowledge. It is specifically drafted for companies in California and similar states where non-compete agreements are restricted, and its protections for confidential information and trade secrets extend beyond the end of employment.
The template includes:
- A comprehensive definition of confidential information
- Disclosure and assignment of inventions
- Post-employment restrictions on soliciting the company's employees or clients
- Non-competition during employment
- Non-disparagement obligations
- Protections for the company's intellectual property
It's built for renewable energy and cleantech employers in California and other states that limit non-compete agreements.
Drafted by clean energy attorneys with 20+ years of experience.
