I hope this is the right thread to ask this question in. Moderators - feel free to move it to the correct place if it isn't :)
Am I correct in thinking that employees of the various royal households of the BRF now all have non-disclosure or confidentiality clauses in their employment contracts?
I'm curious to know - how do such clauses work? Do they flatly forbid the employee from repeating anything they see or hear? Would someone therefore get into trouble for telling their wife or husband what they saw the Queen have for breakfast that day? Or are these clauses aimed more at preventing people from selling information for commercial gain e.g. to a tabloid, or writing a memoir?
What if a current employee was found to have violated the NDA, say, by selling private information about Prince William to a tabloid? I assume they would immediately have their employment terminated, and that a civil lawsuit might even be filed, depending on the nature and scope of their offense. Would any criminal charges be laid? Is information about the inner workings of the BRF considered politically sensitive? Do any employees have to sign the Official Secrets Act as well? Or something similar?
If anyone has insight or knowledge to share on this topic, I'd love to hear it.
