We encourage you to abide by this agreement, but we are not a party to your agreement and we do not necessarily know what it says, and we cannot give advice on how to interpret it.

If this is the case for you, you may be allowed to privately share the information with a MacPorts developer who is also under NDA on the same prerelease Apple software or hardware.
