Soft Launch Confidentiality & NDA Agreement

Version 2026-08-19 · Draft — not yet published

Draft — pending legal review. This is a working draft of CrewNation's Soft Launch Confidentiality & NDA Agreement, written to reflect how the soft-launch actually works. It is not a substitute for review by a licensed attorney and should not be treated as final or legally binding until reviewed and approved by counsel — in particular the term length, governing-law, and remedies provisions, which require business and legal decisions only the company can make.

1. Purpose and acceptance

  • CrewNation is in a private soft-launch (beta) phase. In exchange for early access, you agree to this Soft Launch Confidentiality & Non-Disclosure Agreement ("Agreement"). By checking the box at sign-up, or by accessing or using CrewNation during the soft-launch period, you accept this Agreement. If you do not agree, do not create an account or use the platform.
  • This Agreement is between you (individually, and on behalf of any company or organization you sign up to represent) and CrewNation ("we," "us," "CrewNation").

2. Confidential Information

  • "Confidential Information" means any non-public information you learn or access through CrewNation during the soft-launch period, in any form, whether or not marked confidential, including but not limited to: the existence, design, layout, screens, workflows, and features of the platform; unreleased or in-development features and the product roadmap; pricing, promotion, and monetization structures not yet publicly announced; the identities, profiles, contact details, listings, ads, messages, documents, and any other data of other users; performance, availability, defects, bugs, and error behavior; analytics, metrics, and usage data; and any communications you receive from CrewNation about the beta.
  • The fact that you are participating in the CrewNation soft-launch, and the terms of this Agreement, are themselves Confidential Information.

3. Your confidentiality obligations

  • You will keep all Confidential Information strictly confidential and will not disclose it to any third party without our prior written consent.
  • You will not publish, post, stream, demonstrate, or otherwise make public any part of the platform — including screenshots, screen recordings, photographs, walkthroughs, reviews, or descriptions of features — on social media, forums, press, blogs, or anywhere else, during the soft-launch period.
  • You will not disclose, publish, or discuss any other user’s information, listings, ads, messages, or documents obtained through the platform with anyone outside CrewNation, and you will not use that information for any purpose other than legitimately engaging with that user through the platform itself.
  • You will use Confidential Information solely to participate in the soft-launch and to provide feedback to CrewNation, and for no other purpose.

4. Prohibited uses

  • You will not copy, reproduce, scrape, harvest, bulk-export, index, or use any automated or manual process to collect user information, listings, contact details, or any other data from the platform, except for your own normal, individual use as an ordinary member.
  • You will not reverse-engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to derive the source code, structure, or underlying ideas of the platform.
  • You will not use Confidential Information, or anything you learn during the soft-launch, to design, build, fund, or assist a competing product, database, or service.
  • You will not use the platform or any information obtained through it to circumvent, replicate, or undercut CrewNation’s features, matching, messaging, or monetization — including by taking relationships or transactions initiated on CrewNation off-platform to avoid its systems.

5. Feedback

  • We welcome your feedback, and you may share bug reports, suggestions, and ideas with us. You grant CrewNation a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free license to use any feedback you provide, for any purpose, without obligation or compensation to you. Your feedback remains Confidential Information and may not be shared publicly.

6. Exceptions

  • These obligations do not apply to information that: (a) is or becomes publicly available through no act or omission of yours; (b) you already lawfully possessed without a duty of confidentiality before receiving it from CrewNation; (c) you independently developed without use of or reference to any Confidential Information; or (d) you are legally compelled to disclose by valid court order or law — provided that, where legally permitted, you give us prompt written notice and a reasonable opportunity to object before disclosing.

7. No rights granted

  • Nothing in this Agreement grants you any ownership, license, or other right in CrewNation, the platform, or any Confidential Information, except the limited right to access the platform as a soft-launch participant, which we may revoke at any time. All intellectual property remains ours.

8. Term, return, and survival

  • This Agreement takes effect when you accept it and continues for the duration of the soft-launch and for three (3) years after CrewNation’s general public launch or the termination of your access, whichever is later. Confidentiality obligations for information that constitutes a trade secret survive as long as the information remains a trade secret under applicable law.
  • On our request, or when your access ends, you will stop using and will delete or destroy all Confidential Information in your possession or control, and confirm you have done so if we ask.

9. Remedies

  • You acknowledge that a breach of this Agreement may cause CrewNation irreparable harm for which monetary damages would be inadequate, and that CrewNation is entitled to seek injunctive and other equitable relief — in addition to any other remedies available at law — without the need to post a bond, in addition to recovering its reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in enforcing this Agreement.

10. General

  • This Agreement is in addition to, and does not replace, the CrewNation Terms of Use and Privacy Policy. If any provision is held unenforceable, the rest remains in effect and the unenforceable provision is enforced to the maximum extent permitted. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver. The governing law and venue for this Agreement are as stated in the Terms of Use.
