Non-Solicitation/Non-Piracy Clause Samples
A Non-Solicitation/Non-Piracy clause restricts one party from actively seeking to hire or entice away employees, clients, or customers of the other party, typically during and for a specified period after the business relationship. In practice, this means that, for example, a former employee or contractor cannot approach their previous employer’s staff or clients to join a competing business or transfer their business elsewhere. The core function of this clause is to protect a company’s workforce and client base from being targeted by former associates, thereby preserving business relationships and minimizing the risk of unfair competition.
