Non Disclosure Agreement

[Guest capitalquality]

I’ve been sent an NDA by a client.

1. It’s got all his business details, name, email, phone etc., obviously
2. I have to put my business details, name, contact details etc. in order to validate it.

I’ve worked with this buyer before, I know he doesn’t realise the issues with this. He’s a nice, reasonable, professional guy.

My message telling him I’d have to check with Fiverr got flagged for Trust & Safety review, and I’ve dropped them a message as well. But I’d like to know if anyone else has been in this situation and how it was resolved.

NDAs…I don’t like those…better avoided.

An NDA is fairly standard for a lot of work I do as is getting/giving email addresses for logins to sites etc.
Simply fill in the details and send it back as an attachment. Generally I print it out and fill it in by hand but its up to you. I always include the following text in a separate attachment.
“This email/contact details are to be used for the reason given in the message only. I will not respond to other messages sent to this email address and any attempt to contact me outside of Fiverr will be reported to Fiverr customer support as a violation of their terms of service.”

It sounds threatening enough to discourage them from doing it, I’ve never had an issue with it, and it is still professional.

I have gotten NDA’s before. I usually contact CS first and ask them for permission. One time it was declined another time they gave their OK.

To avoid any issues in the future I would suggest you do the same :).

Fiverr’s Trust & Safety seem to be screening more now. I have heard that even attachments are pulled for screenings these days.

Annai80 is probably right, best to check with CS first whenever unsure. Covers your back, just in case.

I like the disclaimer. I was wondering how to put that. Thanks.

The message I sent to the client telling them I was going to check with CS got screened & flagged. I guess at least I was saying the right things!
