There is a chance this NDA is a very convincing fake. Assuming it is not, here are some of the highlights:
-
You are not allowed to disclose if you are on the take from GW until 3 years after the fact. Even acknowledging the existence of the NDA is verboten.
-
GW dictates the terms of the information they give to you and how it is to be released. The signer is relieved of this duty once the product/information in question is available to the general public.
-
Upon the completion of the event, all documents related to it will be destroyed or returned to GW, and you must certify in writing that this was done.
-
The NDA is also a non-compete agreement, with pretty wide latitude of who you are not allowed to work with.
-
You are not allowed to say anything that "may" damage the reputation of GW, as determined by GW. What is included in this category is not explicitly stated, but it is expansive enough to effectively be a gag order.
-
GW can sue your ass over any of these issues, and you will be paying for GW's lawyers while you are being sued. If they win against you, they will also collect back the "reputational damage" inflicted on them from you.
-
All legal issues will be conducted in the United Kingdom.
Oh, and did I mention that you, as the signer, have NO rights?
As pointed out, there seems FAR too extreme to be real. But at the same time, with the way GW has been acting, there really is a chance it could be real.
