It's not a standard NDA, it's a "CONSULTANT, NON-DISCLOSURE, AND INVENTION ASSIGNMENT AGREEMENT", very different! This is a standard NDA from HBS: http://www.hbs.edu/entrepreneurship/pdf/Sample_NDA.pdf http://www.hbs.edu/entrepreneurship/pdf/Sample_NDA.pdf Always trust yourself, your gut and your instincts in business. Never do anything in life you get a bad feeling about, including signing a CNDIAA. "I made an iOS ecommerce app, along with backend server and a simple web-app POS system. My co-creator asked me to sign a standard NDA agreement except it specifies that I am an unpaid intern. My instinct tells me not to sign it." Trust your instinct and good job writing a blog post about it asking for help.
