Confidentiality Agreements

This article is for Assessors whose organisation requires you to agree to a confidentiality agreement before assessing Applications.

Some organisations require Assessors to agree to a confidentiality agreement before assessing — reflecting that you may see sensitive or commercially confidential information as part of assessing. This is an organisation-wide setting, so whether it applies to you depends on the organisation running the Assessment Round, not on the individual Round itself.

If it applies, you'll see a "[Organisation Name] Confidentiality Agreement" pop-up the first time you go to assess an Application in a given Assessment Round, asking you to read and agree to the terms before you can proceed.

1

Read the agreement

Review the confidentiality terms shown in the pop-up.

2

Tick the box and proceed

Tick the checkbox to confirm you agree to the organisation's Confidentiality Agreement, then click Proceed. You won't be able to continue until this is ticked.

Depending on how your organisation has worded this, ticking the box may also serve to confirm you have no Conflict of Interest for that Assessment Round — read the terms carefully rather than ticking on autopilot.

This is a one-off step per Assessment Round, not per Application — once you've agreed, you won't be asked again for that same round.

Not every organisation uses this feature — if you're never prompted for one, it simply isn't enabled for your organisation.
