    The Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) serves to protect sensitive program information related to federal government requests for proposals (RFPs) and grants. The document outlines the obligations of the Recipient regarding information that cannot be disclosed to foreign entities (classified as NOFORN). Key provisions include a sworn commitment by the Recipient to refrain from sharing sensitive information without proper approval, and the requirement to disclose any unauthorized information breaches to the appropriate authorities. The NDA mandates that the information is only accessible to verified U.S. citizens with a need to know and establishes that all subcontractors must also comply with these terms. The Recipient agrees to implement protective measures for sensitive information and is obligated to destroy all related data within 30 days following the agreement’s completion. This NDA reflects stringent security protocols necessary in the context of federal government contracts and emphasizes compliance with existing laws on classified information and whistleblower protections, highlighting the critical nature of safeguarding sensitive information within government projects.
