  • CONFIDENTIALITY. 

During the Agreement Term, each party will regard any information provided to it by the other party and designated in writing as proprietary or confidential to be confidential (“Confidential Information”). Confidential Information also includes information which, to a reasonable person familiar with the disclosing party’s business and the industry in which it operates, is of a confidential or proprietary nature. Your Confidential Information includes Your Data. Our Confidential Information includes the Services and Our Data. The receiving Party will hold in confidence, and will not disclose (or permit or suffer its personnel to disclose) any Confidential Information to any person or entity except to a director, officer, employee, outside consultant, or advisor (collectively “Representatives”) who has a need to know such Confidential Information in the course of the performance of their duties for the receiving party and who is bound by a duty of confidentiality no less protective of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information than this Agreement. The receiving party and its Representatives will use such Confidential Information only for the purpose for which it was disclosed and will not use or exploit such Confidential Information for its own benefit or the benefit of another person without the prior written consent of the disclosing party. Each party accepts responsibility for the actions of its Representatives and will protect the other party’s Confidential Information in the same manner as it protects its own valuable confidential information, but in no event using less than reasonable care. The parties expressly agree that the terms and pricing of this Agreement are Confidential Information and You further agree that You will not use the Services for the purposes of conducting comparative analysis, evaluations or product benchmarks with respect to the Services and will not publicly post any analysis or reviews of the Services without Our prior written approval. A receiving party will promptly notify the disclosing party upon becoming aware of a breach or threatened breach hereunder, and will cooperate with any reasonable request of the disclosing party in enforcing its rights. 

Information will not be deemed Confidential Information hereunder if such information: (i) is known prior to receipt from the disclosing party, without any obligation of confidentiality; (ii) becomes known to the receiving party directly or indirectly from a source other than one having an obligation of confidentiality to the disclosing party; (iii) becomes publicly known or otherwise publicly available, except through a breach of this Agreement; or (iv) is independently developed by the receiving party without use of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information. The receiving party may disclose Confidential Information pursuant to the requirements of applicable law, legal process or government regulation, provided that it gives the disclosing party reasonable prior written notice to permit the disclosing party to contest such disclosure, and such disclosure is otherwise limited to the required disclosure.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, both parties acknowledge that any use of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information in a manner inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement may cause the disclosing party irreparable and immediate damage for which remedies other than injunctive relief may be inadequate. Therefore, both parties agree that, in addition to any other remedy to which the disclosing party may be entitled hereunder, at law or equity, the disclosing party will be entitled to an injunction or injunctions (without the posting of any bond and without proof of actual damages) to restrain such use in addition to other appropriate remedies available under applicable law.

This Agreement will begin on the Effective Date as set forth above and will continue until otherwise terminated under this Section 13 (the “Agreement Term”).

  • INDEMNIFICATION

We will indemnify, defend and hold You harmless from and against any and all costs, liabilities, losses, and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees) (collectively, “Losses”) incurred, arising out of or in connection with a claim, suit, action, or proceeding brought by any third party against You alleging that the use of the Services as permitted hereunder infringes any patent, copyright or trademark, or constitutes a misappropriation of a trade secret of a third party. Excluded from the above indemnification obligations are claims to the extent arising from (a) use of the Services in violation of this Agreement or applicable law, (b) use of the Services after We notify You to discontinue use because of an infringement claim, (c) any claim relating to any third party products or services or Your Data, (d) modifications to the Services made by anyone other than Us (where the claim would not have arisen but for such modification), (e) the combination, operation, or use of the Services with software or equipment which was not provided by Us, to the extent that Your liability for such claim would have been avoided in the absence of such combination, operation, or use; or (f) compliance by Us with Your custom requirements or specifications if and to the extent such compliance with Your custom requirements or specifications resulted in the infringement.

The indemnified party shall (i) promptly notify the indemnifying Party in writing of any claim, suit or proceeding for which indemnity is claimed, provided that failure to so notify will not remove the indemnifying party’s obligation except to the extent it is prejudiced thereby, and (ii) allow the indemnifying party to solely control the defense of any claim, suit or proceeding and all negotiations for settlement; provided that the indemnifying party shall not settle any claim without the indemnified party’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). The indemnified party shall also provide the indemnifying party with reasonable cooperation and assistance in defending such claim (at the indemnifying party’s cost).
