CONT

L'entente de confidentialité [...] Ces ententes prévoient habituellement que la partie à qui est divulguée l'information confidentielle(que nous nommerons le «récipiendaire») la gardera confidentielle, et accepte de ne pas la diffuser, de quelque façon que ce soit. Ces ententes comprennent également, généralement, l'interdiction, pour le récipiendaire, d’utiliser l'information confidentielle de l'autre partie pour ses propres fins, commerciales ou autres. Certaines ententes mentionnent que toute information soumise au récipiendaire est présumée confidentielle sauf exception. D'autres, par ailleurs, stipulent que seule l'information clairement identifiée comme confidentielle fera l'objet de l'entente. Le choix de la formule à adopter est fonction des besoins des parties et du rapport de force existant entre elles.
