I. Definition of the “NNN” Contract
(Non-Disclosure | Non-Use | Non-Circumvention)
The Chinese NNN Agreement is an agreement that protects foreign companies in their business dealings with Chinese suppliers by limiting the disclosure, use and circumvention of the company’s confidential information.
It is commonly used in business contexts such as manufacturing, distribution, franchising or joint venture and provides legal protection against the infringement of intellectual property rights and confidential information such as trade secrets, patents, customer and supplier information. The Chinese NNN Agreement is usually written in 2 languages, Chinese and English.

▪️Increase its prices in a brutal way and without prior notification.
▪️Contact your end customers, the Marketplace on which you sell, and resell your concepts and critical information to your competitors.
