A South Carolina Confidentiality Order is a court-approved agreement that legally binds parties to keep private any information or documents related to a case. This order is used to protect sensitive and confidential information from being disclosed to the public. It is often used in cases involving trade secrets, personal medical information, and other sensitive information. The most common types of South Carolina Confidentiality Order are a protective order, a sealing order, and a non-disclosure agreement. A protective order prevents someone from disclosing confidential information, including any documents or information related to the case. A sealing order seals a court file so that the contents are not available to the public. A non-disclosure agreement requires that all parties involved in the case agree to keep the information confidential and not share it with anyone else. These confidentiality orders are important in protecting the interests of the parties involved in the case and ensuring that sensitive information is kept confidential.
