(a) In general A nondisclosure clause shall be void and unenforceable as against public policy only to the extent that the nondisclosure clause prohibits— (1) a victim or alleged victim of sexual abuse against a minor person from disclosing— (A) that act of sexual abuse against a minor person; or (B) facts related to that act of sexual abuse against a minor person; or (2) any other person from disclosing facts related to sexual abuse against a minor person described in paragraph (1) in support of, in furtherance of, or consistent with the right of a victim or alleged victim to disclose under that paragraph. (b) Permissible confidentiality Nothing in this section shall be construed to prohibit a person, including a victim or alleged victim of sexual abuse against a minor person, from entering into a contract or agreement that restricts the disclosure of information, including the amount or payment terms of a settlement, by another party to the contract or agreement, including an alleged perpetrator, so long as such restriction does not prevent disclosure protected under subsection (a).
