8. CONFIDENTIALITY

8.1        Protection of Software.  Customer shall hold the Software (including all accompanying documentation and materials) in strictest confidence to be used solely for the authorized use in accordance with the license, using no less than the same degree of care which Customer applies to its proprietary software and similar confidential information, and Customer agrees not to take any action in derogation of such confidentiality.  Customer shall maintain the Software in a secure limited access location when it is not in use. Customer is permitted to make copies of the Software appropriate to standard backup and recovery procedures as described in Section 10 and to store such copies in locations consistent with the standard operating procedures of Customer, including, but not limited to, offsite storage locations and disaster recovery sites. Except as otherwise provided herein, without the prior written consent of CASABASE SOFTWARE, Customer shall not disclose, divulge, distribute, publish, transmit, or transfer all or any part of the Software by any means or in any form to any third party other than its employees, provided such employees are subject to use and disclosure restrictions applicable to the Software which are no less protective of the Software than those assumed by Customer hereunder. Customer reserves the right to hire temporary staff as part of its ongoing operations, and this temporary staff will have access to the software under same terms and conditions as employees and will be subject to the same non-disclosure requirements as employees.  This Section 8.1 shall not apply to any portion of the Software that (a) has become publicly known through no fault of Customer, (b) has been disclosed to Customer by a third party having legitimate possession thereof and the unrestricted legal right to make such disclosure, or (c) that Customer can demonstrate was within its legitimate possession prior to the time of the disclosure of the Software by CASABASE SOFTWARE.

8.2        Protection of Confidential Information. 

(a)        For all purposes of this section, the following definitions shall apply:

(i)         “Confidential Information” of a party shall mean information in any form or media that relates to a party’s business and that, pursuant to this Agreement, is provided or made available by either party to the other party.   “Confidential Information” shall include, but not be limited to, proprietary software and other intellectual property, code, algorithms, schematics, tools, know-how, methodologies, techniques, processes, inventions (whether patentable or not), financial plans and data, business plans and strategies, agreements, products, pricing, charges, fees, compensation, customer information, and any other information that reasonably should be understood to be confidential to the disclosing party. “Confidential Information” specifically includes, but is not limited to, the category of Customer-provided “sensitive personal information” pertaining to any individual, as that term, or equivalent term, is defined by applicable federal or state laws and regulations.   “Confidential Information” specifically includes, without limitation, “Protected Health Information,” personally identifiable information and other sensitive personal information pertaining to any individual, as those terms or similar terms are defined by applicable federal and state laws and regulations. Confidential Information shall also include the terms of this Agreement and information and data from time to time resident on the Software or on the Customer’s systems which interface with the Software. “Confidential Information” shall not include information which (a) the Receiving Party can demonstrate is at the time of disclosure already known to the Receiving Party, (b) is or becomes generally known to the public or is otherwise deemed to be in the public domain through no wrongful act of the Receiving Party, (c) is received from a third party that has the legal right to so furnish such Confidential Information without restriction or (d) is not treated confidentially by the Disclosing Party.

(ii)         “Disclosing Party” shall mean with respect to any information disclosed by one party to the other, the party which, directly or through one of its agents, discloses such information.

(iii)        “Receiving Party” shall mean with respect to any information disclosed by one party to the other, the party which receives such information.

(b)        Each Receiving Party with respect to Confidential Information received by it hereunder shall: (i) hold such Confidential Information in strict confidence and protect it in accordance with a standard of care which shall be no less than the care it uses to protect its own information of like sensitivity and in no event less than reasonable care; (ii) not use such Confidential Information for any purpose except as is necessary for the purposes of this Agreement or as otherwise authorized in writing by the Disclosing Party of such Confidential Information in advance; (iii) not disclose such Confidential Information to any person other than to the Receiving Party’s directors, officers, employees, representatives, consultants or agents (collectively called “Representatives”) who need to know such Confidential Information for the purposes of this Agreement, provided that each Representative shall be informed, directed and obligated by the Receiving Party to treat such Confidential Information in accordance with the obligations of this agreement and the Receiving Party shall be liable for any breach of any such obligation by any of its Representatives; and (iv) except as otherwise expressly permitted hereunder, not copy or otherwise duplicate such Confidential Information, or knowingly allow anyone else to copy or otherwise duplicate any such Confidential Information without the Disclosing Party’s prior written approval.

(c)        Each Receiving Party shall notify the Disclosing Party if any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party is required to be disclosed by the Receiving Party by judicial, administrative, or other governmental order. Such notification shall be made reasonably promptly so that the Disclosing Party, at its expense, may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy. Provided such notification is given and no protective order or other remedy is forthcoming by the deadline by which the Receiving Party must comply, the Receiving Party is hereby authorized to comply with such judicial, administrative, or governmental order. The Receiving Party shall provide the Disclosing Party reasonable cooperation (at the expense of the Disclosing Party) in connection with any protective order or other remedy sought by the Disclosing Party in connection with such order.

(e)        Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, each Receiving Party shall return to the Disclosing Party all the Confidential Information furnished to the Receiving Party and all copies and extracts in whole or in part thereof or, with the written permission of the Disclosing Party, effect the destruction of the same and certify such destruction in writing to the Disclosing Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Receiving Party shall not be obligated to return or destroy any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party if it has been electronically archived by Receiving Party in accordance with its record retention, information security and/or disaster recovery procedures in effect from time to time, and the removal, destruction or return of the Confidential Information would be unreasonably expensive or burdensome;  provided that the Confidential Information remains subject to the non-disclosure requirements of this Agreement.

(f)         Nothing contained in this agreement shall be construed as granting to either party any right, title, or interest in or to any information disclosed hereunder to it, except for the limited right to use and disclose such information as expressly permitted hereunder.

(g)        Each Receiving Party shall on any copies it may make of any information received hereunder maintain all copyright patent or trademark notices which may appear on such information when so received.

(h)        Each party represents that the disclosure by it of information hereunder to the other party does not violate the rights of any other person or entity.

12. MISCELLANEOUS. Customer may not assign or delegate, directly or indirectly, by operation of law or otherwise, this Agreement or any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement (including the license rights granted to Customer to the Software) to any third party without the prior approval of CASABASE SOFTWARE.  Any attempted assignment or transfer in violation of the foregoing will be null and void and of no effect.  This Agreement will be subject to and governed by the laws of the State of Georgia and the United States of America without regard for its conflicts of law principles that would require application of the laws of a different state or country.

If any provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, the remaining provisions hereof shall be unaffected and continue in full force and effect, provided that such holding of invalidity or unenforceability does not materially affect the essence of this Agreement and the parties shall use their respective best efforts to replace the invalid or unenforceable provision with a provision which to the maximum degree possible effects the purpose of such invalid or unenforceable provision. All trademarks, trade names, service marks, logos, and other identifiers of Customer (“Company Marks”) will remain the sole and exclusive property of Customer. No license or other rights therein or related thereto are granted to CASABASE SOFTWARE under this Agreement.
