IDEAS AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY We protect our confidential information and respect others’ Nike’s confidential information and intellectual property are among our most important assets. Unauthorized use can lead to serious loss of value. Please assume all Nike information and intellectual property is confidential unless it was made public by Nike or approved for public disclosure. These assets represent significant company investment and years of hard work by our teammates. Future products, designs, innovations, business plans – when you help protect them, you protect our competitive advantage. And we don’t just safeguard Nike’s intellectual property – we treat others’ with the same care. We respect our competitors, vendors and customers and always want to treat them fairly. We only use confidential information of other companies within the terms of a written agreement with them. In fact, you should seek advice from Legal any time you solicit, accept or use confidential information or intellectual property from those outside the company or give them access to our own. Think twice before you post anything that could remotely be considered confidential information on social media. Similarly, avoid discussing confidential information in public places. Secure your laptop and documents that contain confidential information. Play it safe: Only discuss confidential information in appropriate places and with Nike employees who need to know. I took a video of my friends throwing a ball around the office, but I can clearly see a product design sitting on one of their desks. It’s pretty small though – can I still post it to Instagram? No. Our Keep It Tight policy requires us to play it safe with regards to online posting. I’ve been talking with some non-Nike people about developing a new app feature that would be great for one of Nike’s apps. We may be onto something. They have an NDA. Am I OK? Contact Legal before you have product or brand development conversations with anyone outside of NIke. Non-disclosure agreements don’t cover the creation of new innovations or designs. Others may be able to provide those new innovations or designs to Nike’s competitors unless we get the right agreement in place. WHAT IF...?
