What is the relevance of confidentiality agreements for Internet intellectual property?

Also known as a nondisclosure agreement, a confidentiality agreement is essentially a form of insurance for intellectual property owners, in the unfortunate possibility of infringement or otherwise a violation of their rights. In other words, this is a legally binding agreement that allows an intellectual property owner to share their rights with another party. But the key to this is that it ensures that the party receiving this private information is prohibited from disclosing it to anyone else, replicating it, or creating something similar to it.

You may be wondering why you may be prompted to share this private information with another party in the first place. Well, you may come to a point where you are seeking sound business advice from an experienced party on how to increase the output of your intellectual property.
