Usage Note

Confidencial is invariable in gender (same form for masculine and feminine), agreeing only in number: confidenciales. It appears frequently in bureaucratic and legal contexts — información confidencial, carácter confidencial. The related noun is confidencia ('a confidence/secret shared'), which is closer to the English 'confidence' in its personal sense than the broader confianza ('trust').
