PERFORMANCE

CONFIDENTIALITY

Confidential information (the “Confidential Information”) refers to any data or information relating to the Parties, whether business or personal, which would reasonably be considered to be private or proprietary to the Parties and that is not generally known and where the release of that Confidential Information could reasonably be expected to cause harm to the Client.

The Parties agree that they will not disclose, divulge, reveal, report or use, for any purpose, any confidential information which the Parties have obtained, except as authorized by the other Party or as required by law. The obligations of confidentiality will apply during the term of this Agreement and will survive indefinitely upon termination of this Agreement.

The use of the Intellectual Property by the Client will not be restricted in any manner.

The Contractor may not use the Intellectual Property for any purpose other than that contracted for in this Agreement except with the written consent of the Client. The Contractor will be responsible for any and all damages resulting from the unauthorized use of the Intellectual Property.

ADDITIONAL CLAUSES
