SECTION 5. CONFIDENTIALITY>.
(a) Obligations. As used herein, “Confidential Information” means all data or information relating to the activities or business of a Party (including, but not limited to, procedures, processes, knowhow, technical and non-technical materials, pricing information and the terms of this Agreement) that is disclosed by such Party (“Disclosing Party”) to the other Party (“Receiving Party”), whether orally or in writing, that is designated as proprietary or confidential or that reasonably should be understood to be proprietary or confidential given the nature of the information or the circumstances surrounding its disclosure. Each Receiving Party shall use the Disclosing Partys Confidential Information solely in furtherance of the commercial relationship contemplated under this Agreement and shall use the same degree of care to safeguard the confidentiality of the Confidential Information that it uses to safeguard the confidentiality of its own confidential information, but in no event less than reasonable care. Without limiting the foregoing, each Receiving Party agrees (i) to observe complete confidentiality with respect to the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party; (ii) not to disclose, or permit any third party to disclose, the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party (or any portion thereof) without prior written consent of Disclosing Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to its employees, agents and independent contractors who have a need to know the Confidential Information to perform Companys obligations and exercise Companys rights under this Agreement; provided that (A) such employees, agents and independent contractors of the Receiving Party are advised of the confidential and proprietary nature thereof and are prohibited from disclosing the Confidential Information or using the Confidential Information other than for the benefit of the Receiving Party, in accordance with this Agreement and (B) the Receiving Party shall be fully responsible hereunder for any unauthorized disclosure or use of the Disclosing Partys Confidential Information by any of its employees, agents or independent contractors as if such employees, agents and independent contractors were a party to this Agreement. It is expressly agreed by the Parties that Confidential Information of DeliveryCircle includes the Platform. . Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement, DeliveryCircle may use delivery data and other information input into the Platform by Company and its Authorized Users (“Delivery Data”) in accordance with the DeliveryCircle privacy policy made available on the Platform, as may be amended or restated by DeliveryCircle from time to time, and DeliveryCircle may aggregate, anonymize and de-identify Delivery Data and use such aggregated, anonymized, or de-identified data for any lawful purpose.
(b) Exclusions. The following shall not be deemed to be Confidential Information for purposes of this Agreement: (i) information already lawfully known to the Receiving Party at the time of disclosure by the Disclosing Party; (ii) information generally known to the public other than as a result of disclosure in violation of this Section 5; (iii) information lawfully obtained from any third party that has no duty or obligation of confidentiality with respect to such information; and (iv) information developed by the Receiving Party independently and without reference to information provided by the Disclosing Party.
(c) Compelled Disclosures. Notwithstanding the requirements of this Section 5, the Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party as required or requested by a court of law or any governmental entity or agency, provided that the Receiving Party, unless prohibited by law, provides the Disclosing Party with reasonable prior notice to enable the Disclosing Party to seek a protective order or other confidential treatment of such information and/or waive compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. If, in the absence of a protective order, confidential treatment order or other similar remedy or the receipt of a waiver from the Disclosing Party, disclosure of the Disclosing Partys Confidential Information is required in order to avoid contempt proceedings, the Receiving Party may, without liability under this Agreement, disclose to the appropriate authority only that portion of the Disclosing Partys Confidential Information that, on the advice of legal counsel, it is required to disclose. Any of the Disclosing Partys Confidential Information disclosed as a result of a lawful requirement pursuant of this Section 5(c) does not automatically lose its status as “Confidential Information” by virtue of such disclosure and is still protected by the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
(d) Equitable Relief. Each Receiving Party acknowledges that the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party is important, material and confidential, and gravely affects the successful conduct of the business of the Disclosing Party, and that any breach or threatened breach of this Section 5 would result in irreparable harm for which monetary damages would not be adequate. In the event of such breach, and without limiting the right of a Party to seek any other remedy or relief to which it may be entitled under law, each Receiving Party agrees that the Disclosing Party will be entitled to equitable relief, including temporary and permanent injunctive relief and specific performance without any necessity to post a bond.
(e) Return of Confidential Information. Upon the Disclosing Partys request or upon any termination or expiration of this Agreement, the Receiving Party will promptly (i) return to the Disclosing Party or, if so directed by the Disclosing Party, destroy all tangible embodiments of the Disclosing Partys Confidential Information (in every form and medium); and (ii) permanently erase all electronic files containing any of the Disclosing Partys Confidential Information (except for any computer records or files that have been created pursuant to the Receiving Partys automatic archiving and back-up procedures and the removal of which is not technically reasonable). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Receiving Party shall be permitted to retain the Disclosing Partys Confidential Information for its legal archives (subject to a continuing obligation of confidentiality), for compliance purposes, to enjoy its rights under this Agreement or as otherwise required by applicable laws.
