Definition. Confidential Information shall mean and include all of the confidential and proprietary information and all other information, not in the public domain, that relates to the PartnerOptimizer Service. All information disclosed or revealed by a Party hereunder orally, electronically, in writing or in any other tangible form, shall be deemed to be Confidential Information if (i) it has been marked confidential; (ii) the other Party has been placed on notice, orally or in writing, of its confidential nature; or (iii) due to its character or nature, a reasonable person under similar circumstances would treat such information as confidential.
Protection of Confidential Information. The receiving Party will protect the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information from unauthorized dissemination and use with the same degree of care that such receiving Party uses to protect its own non-public and confidential information, but in no event less than a commercially reasonable degree of care. The receiving Party will not use the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information for purposes other than those necessary to directly further the purposes of this Agreement. The receiving Party will not disclose to third parties the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information without prior written consent of the disclosing Party.
Non-Confidential Information. Information shall not be considered Confidential Information to the extent, but only to the extent, that the receiving Party can document that such information (i) is or becomes generally known or available to the public through no fault of the receiving Party, (ii) was in the receiving Party’s possession before receipt from the disclosing Party under this Agreement or any prior agreement or understanding between or among the Parties, or (iii) is lawfully obtained from a third party who has the right to make such disclosure.
Disclosure of Confidential Information. These provisions shall not prevent the receiving Party from disclosing Confidential Information where it is required to do so by law or by a binding court order save that, to the extent legally permissible, it shall notify the disclosing Party of such disclosure and allow the disclosing Party a reasonable opportunity to object to such disclosure.
INFORMATION SHARING
PartnerOptimizer does not rent, sell, or share Client’s personal or confidential information with other people or non-affiliated companies except to provide products or services you’ve requested, when we have your permission, or when we respond to subpoenas, court orders, or legal process, or to establish or exercise our legal rights or defend against legal claims. If PartnerOptimizer becomes involved in a merger, acquisition, or any form of sale of some or all of its assets, we will provide notice before personal information is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
PartnerOptimizer limits access to Client’s personal or confidential information to employees who we believe reasonably need to come into contact with that information to provide products or services to you or in order to do their jobs. These individuals are bound by confidentiality obligations and may be subject to discipline, including termination and criminal prosecution, if they fail to meet these obligations.
