NDA & Early-Access Agreement
Version 14 May 2026
Short version
You’re gaining access to Proofpoints before it’s publicly launched. In return, please keep what you see – screenshots, credentials, unreleased features, pricing – to yourself for 12 months.
No money changes hands, neither side is obliged to do a deal, and you can walk away any time. It works both ways, we’ll do the same with anything confidential you tell us.
1The parties
This agreement is between Proofpoints Customer Advocacy Limited (company number 16089898, registered in England and Wales, trading as Proofpoints) and you (and your employer, if you’re signing up on their behalf). For the purposes of this NDA each side is both a discloser and a recipient – it’s mutual.
2What's confidential
Anything either side shares that is marked confidential or that a reasonable person would understand to be confidential, including (but not limited to):
- Pre-launch features, roadmaps, designs, and screenshots
- Account credentials, magic links, API keys
- Pricing, contract terms, billing arrangements
- Customer stories, transcripts, advocate names that haven’t been published
- Anything else marked confidential in writing at the time of sharing
Information already public, independently developed, or properly received from a third party isn’t covered.
3How confidential information may be used
Only for the purpose of evaluating Proofpoints (and for us, only for the purpose of supporting your evaluation). Don’t share it with third parties, post it on social media, or use it for anything else without prior written permission.
You can share it with employees and advisors who need to know and who are already bound by similar confidentiality obligations. You’re responsible for what they do with it.
4Term and survival
This NDA runs for 12 months from the date you accept it. Confidentiality obligations on anything shared during that period survive for a further 12 months after the term ends.
5No obligation to deal
Nothing in this agreement obliges either side to enter into a commercial relationship, buy or sell anything, or commit to any future arrangement. Either side can walk away at any time.
6No warranty, no guarantee
Pre-launch software is just that – pre-launch. The platform is provided “as is”. Things may break, change, or be withdrawn. We don’t warrant accuracy, completeness, fitness for any particular purpose, or uninterrupted availability during the evaluation period.
7What we do with sign-up data
Your name, email, company, and IP address at signup are stored to contact you and to provision your trial. Your acceptance of this NDA is logged with a timestamp, the IP address, and the NDA version string above. None of this data is sold or shared with third parties. Full detail: Privacy Policy.
8Governing law
This agreement is governed by the laws of England and Wales. Any disputes will be resolved in the courts of England and Wales.

A note on feedback
Feedback is a gift, and we crave it. The good, the bad, the broken – tell us anything that helps us make Proofpoints better.
Customer advocacy is the thing we do, so naturally: if Proofpoints earns your praise, we’d love that to be something you’d consider sharing publicly when the time is right. We’re also intending to create the Proof Positive community, and welcome you as a Proofpoints Original. Thank you for being part of something new.
