Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA)

Effective Date: July 10, 2026 Version: 2.1

This NDA ("Agreement") is entered into by and between SynergyXpert ("Platform"), the Expert, and the Client ("Parties") for the purpose of protecting confidential information exchanged during consultations, projects, or any other engagement facilitated through the SynergyXpert platform.

1. Definition of Confidential Information

"Confidential Information" refers to all non-public information disclosed by either party, including but not limited to business plans, financials, client identities, project details, rates, technical data, inventions, trade secrets, and any other information reasonably understood to be confidential.

2. Obligations and Compliance

Expert Warranties:

• Non-Violation of Duty: Expert warrants that their participation does not breach any third-party NDAs, employment contracts, or fiduciary duties to current or former employers.
• Experts must not disclose Material Non-Public Information (MNPI) or any information that could violate securities laws.
• Both parties agree not to disclose, share, or use Confidential Information for any purpose other than the agreed engagement.

Client Obligations:

• No-Solicitation: Client agrees not to hire the expert directly outside the platform for 24 months after initial contact (protects platform commission).
• Clients must not request or encourage disclosure of MNPI or proprietary information belonging to expert's employer.
• Confidential Information must not be shared with third parties without prior written consent from the disclosing party and SynergyXpert.

Platform Safe Harbor:

• Intermediary Status: SynergyXpert operates as a neutral technology intermediary and is not a financial advisor, legal advisor, or consultant.
• The platform facilitates connections but does not provide, endorse, or guarantee any advice given by experts.
• All compliance obligations rest with the individual parties, not the platform.

The obligation of confidentiality survives the termination of the engagement or platform account.

Confidential Information does not include:

• Information already known or independently developed by the receiving party.
• Information in the public domain, through no breach of this Agreement.
• Information required by law or court order to be disclosed (with notice to SynergyXpert and the other party where possible).

4. Duration

Obligations under this NDA remain effective for five (5) years after the end of the engagement or termination of platform account.
