Overview
Confidentiality agreements (CDAs) or non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) are used to protect the confidentiality of any proprietary information that needs to be evaluated by the other party, whether that information is being shared by the investigator with a potential sponsor or by a sponsor with the investigator.
More information
- Whenever possible, use the Confidential Disclosure Agreement template available on the Research and Sponsored Programs website. If a collaborator provides their own CDA/NDA template, the agreement will need to be reviewed and possibly negotiated by UW-Madison. This is done through RAMP by sending ancillary reviews to the SMPH Research Administration Office.
- For additional information on CDAs or NDAs, please see the Non-Disclosure Agreement page on the SMPH Contract Solutions website.
Please Note: RAMP processing for these agreements MAY require a second Dean/Division Approval. You will find further guidance from our team in the ancillary review response.
