confidentiality/non-disclosure document Explanation: This is another option, certainly for UK English - I've signed a few 'confidentiality agreements' asking me not to work directly for agency clients and to keep all information confidential, i.e. they don't want competition. |

| konkurrentbegränsningshandling. (leg.) restrictive covenant; (illeg.) restraint of trade Explanation: Res. cov. in the sense not of a fetter on land, but of non-compete or agreement not to work or act, literally or on the stage - see the UK Revenue case of (Tax Inspector) Higgs vs. (Sir/ Lord Lawrence) Olivier.
