About this tool
Generate a contractor NDA for short projects covering deliverable confidentiality, IP assignment, portfolio rights and data handling.
A freelancer NDA has to do more than keep a secret: on a short contractor engagement the same document usually has to say who owns the deliverables, whether the work can appear in a portfolio, how credentials and personal data are handled, and what gets deleted at the end. This generator assembles all of that around your actual project dates, computing the deletion deadline and the confidentiality end date from the project end rather than leaving blanks. It is a template and not legal advice.

Drafts and working files stay confidential until the client publicly releases them, which a plain NDA usually misses.
Three drafted positions — no use, use with approval, or use after public launch — instead of silence that leads to a dispute.
Project length, deletion deadline and confidentiality expiry are calculated from the start and end dates you enter.
By default, in most jurisdictions the person who creates a work owns the copyright unless it is assigned in writing or falls within a narrow work-made-for-hire category. A contractor is generally not an employee, so an express written assignment is what actually transfers ownership to the client.
Only if the agreement says so. The common middle ground is that publicly released work can be shown while unreleased work, internal metrics and source code cannot. A blanket ban is enforceable but is a genuine cost to a freelancer and is usually negotiable.
An NDA governs confidentiality and, in this template, ownership and deletion. A contract for services or statement of work governs scope, fees, milestones, revisions and termination. Keep them separate so that a confidentiality dispute never becomes an argument about whether an invoice is payable.
Under GDPR-style regimes the controller must notify the supervisory authority without undue delay and, where feasible, within 72 hours of becoming aware of a breach. Contracts therefore set a shorter processor deadline — commonly 12 to 48 hours — so the client has time to assess and report. A separate data processing agreement is normally required as well.
