Non-disclosure Agreements
You should always enter into a non-disclosure agreement before discussing any new ideas or projects with any potential customer or partner. The reason for this is to preserve confidentiality in your information and the commercial ideas that add value to your business. An NDA is a "must have" where you have invented something which may be patentable and wish to discuss it with a third party before applying for patent protection. Otherwise you will risk destroying novelty in your own invention. See patents for further information.
A non disclosure agreement is a straight forward document and usually defines what information is confidential and restricts the purposes for which this information can be used.
