Tirata User Testing

Participant Nondisclosure Agreement — pre-launch product research

Version 1.0 — Effective June 2026

1. Parties

This Mutual Nondisclosure Agreement (the “Agreement”) is between Tirata, Inc., a Delaware corporation, (“Tirata”) and the undersigned individual research participant (“Participant”). It is effective as of the date Participant accepts it electronically below.

2. Purpose

Participant is taking part in user research sessions for an unreleased Tirata mobile product (the “Product”). To make those sessions useful, Tirata needs to share information about the Product that has not yet been disclosed publicly. This Agreement governs Participant’s handling of that information.

3. Confidential Information

“Confidential Information” means any non-public information that Tirata discloses to Participant, before or after this Agreement, in connection with the research sessions, including but not limited to:

  • The Product itself, including any builds, screens, prototypes, designs, features, and user flows.

  • Pricing, business plans, subscription terms, and go-to-market strategy.

  • Product roadmap, unreleased features, and any information about future releases.

  • Source code, algorithms, exercise selection logic, programming logic, and technical architecture.

  • Any documents, research materials, or communications marked confidential or that a reasonable person would understand to be confidential under the circumstances.

Confidential Information does not include information that (a) is or becomes publicly available through no fault of Participant, (b) Participant lawfully knew before disclosure by Tirata, or (c) Participant lawfully receives from a third party without confidentiality obligation.

4. Obligations

Participant agrees to:

  • Keep Confidential Information strictly confidential and use it only to participate in the research sessions.

  • Not disclose, publish, or discuss Confidential Information with anyone outside Tirata, including on social media, Strava, public forums, cycling community channels, or with friends, training partners, or other cyclists.

  • Not screenshot, photograph, screen-record, or otherwise reproduce the Product or any session materials, except as part of the recording Tirata is conducting itself with separate written consent.

  • Not reverse-engineer or attempt to derive source code, algorithms, or technical details from the Product.

  • Protect Confidential Information with at least the same care a reasonable person would use to protect their own confidential information.

5. Permitted disclosures

Participant may disclose Confidential Information if required by law or valid legal process, provided Participant gives Tirata prompt written notice (where legally permitted) so Tirata can seek a protective order.

6. No license

Nothing in this Agreement grants Participant any rights in the Product, the Confidential Information, or any related intellectual property. All rights are reserved by Tirata.

7. Feedback

Participant may provide feedback, suggestions, or comments about the Product (“Feedback”). Participant grants Tirata a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, modify, and incorporate the Feedback into the Product or any other Tirata offering, without obligation or attribution.

8. Term and survival

This Agreement begins on the date signed and continues until the Product is publicly released by Tirata. Even after public release, Participant’s confidentiality obligations continue for any information that has not itself been made public — including unreleased features, pricing changes, internal documents, and roadmap items — for two (2) years after disclosure.

9. Return or deletion of materials

Upon Tirata’s request, or at the end of Participant’s involvement in the research, Participant will return or delete (and confirm deletion of, if asked) any tangible Confidential Information in Participant’s possession. Requests should be sent to support@tirata.app.

10. Remedies

Participant acknowledges that unauthorized disclosure of Confidential Information may cause Tirata harm for which monetary damages would be inadequate. Tirata is entitled to seek injunctive relief in addition to any other remedies available, without the need to post bond.

11. Governing law

This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. The parties consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in San Francisco County, California, for any dispute arising out of this Agreement.

12. Miscellaneous

This Agreement is the entire agreement between the parties regarding the subject matter and supersedes any prior understandings. It may be amended only in writing signed by both parties. If any provision is held unenforceable, the remainder will continue in effect. This Agreement may be signed electronically and in counterparts.
