I am told by a Taiwan agency to sign and submit the Non-disclosure agreement (NDA) via snail mail. Is it natural to to this since we always keep secretc of what we are translating ?

Any idea or comments ?

Pretty normal practice... Dec 20, 2002

...the main purpose of which is usually to keep the agency free of legal trouble in case of any leaks.



I have signed several NDA\'s myself (with direct clients, however), and I require freelancers using my company\'s web platform to sign one, too.
