Do trade secrets protect commercial secrets?
Trade secrets protect more than just inventions
A trade secret can be any confidential business information providing business with a competitive edge.
Your customer list, pricing, contact and contract details can all be protected as trade secrets as long as they meet the following criteria:
- not generally known to the public;
- confers economic benefit on its holder because the information is not publicly known; and
- where the holder makes reasonable efforts to maintain its secrecy
