CONTRACTOR EMPLOYEE’S NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT

I understand that, as part of my duties under Contract #___________ (the “Contract”), I may have access to, or be provided, Government procurement-sensitive information, proprietary business information provided to the Government by other parties (e.g., other contractors), and/or personal information protected by the Privacy Act (all of this information is defined as “Protected Information” in this Agreement). I understand that for the purpose of this Agreement, Protected Information includes, but is not limited to the following: procurement planning information, contract information contained in individual contracts and Government procurement databases, proposal evaluation plans and evaluation results, negotiation strategies, technical, cost and business information contained in proposals submitted by entities competing for Government contracts; and, personal information (e.g., Social Security Numbers). I also understand that Protected Information may exist in different physical media (e.g. paper, electronic file, audio or video disc), or be transmitted orally.

I, further agree that I will not disclose, publish, divulge, release, or make known in any manner or to any extent, to any individual, except as authorized by the contracting officer, any Protected Information provided to me or legitimately obtained by me in the pursuit of my assigned duties during the course of my employment under this contract. I will not disclose, publish, divulge, release, or make known, any Protected Information that, in the future, may be made part of the public domain without prior authorization of the contracting officer. This prohibition also covers information provided by the Government or a contractor whether or not in its original form or a derivative form (i.e. where the information has been included in a contractor-generated work or where it is discernible from materials incorporating or based upon such information).

I further agree that I will use Protected Information only for official purposes in the performance of the Contract and will disclose such information only to those individuals who have a specific need to know in performance of official Government duties. I specifically will not disclose any such information to employees of my company or any other contractor employee(s) who have not signed this agreement. I will take all reasonable precautions to prevent the unauthorized disclosure and use of such information.

I also understand that the prohibitions and requirements in this Agreement have no expiration date.

I hereby certify that I have read the non-disclosure Agreement described above and I am familiar with the directives and policies governing the disclosure of procurement-sensitive information. I agree that I will fully and completely observe these directives and will not disclose such information to any unauthorized person, or use any information that I have obtained or been provided for private use or gain at any time, including subsequent to the performance of duties under the Contract.
