Authorized Disclosure of Confidential Information. Recipient may disclose the Confidential Information only to employees [and contractors] of Recipient who have a "need to know" such Confidential Information in order to enable Recipient to use such Confidential Information for purposes of the Projects and are legally bound to use and disclose such Confidential Information for no other purpose. Recipient may make a reasonable number of copies of materials or media containing such information as appropriate to accomplish the purpose agreed to by Owner. Any reproduction or copies made of any Confidential Information shall remain the property of Owner and shall contain any and all confidential or proprietary notices or legends which appear on the original, unless otherwise authorized in writing by Owner. Defining the scope of disclosure permitted of the Recipient helps the Owner confine the dissemination of the Confidential Information and, thus, strengthens the protection of the Confidential Information. In some cases, the Confidentiality Agreement can limit the Recipient's authorized disclosure of the Confidential Information to a number of specifically identified persons. In other cases, the Confidentiality Agreement permits disclosure only to employees who have a "need to know" the Confidential Information in order to carry out the purposes for which the Recipient is authorized to have the Confidential Information. A common question is whether the Recipient is entitled to share the Confidential Information with consultants or contractors the Recipient has hired either specifically to assist with the Project or, more generally, to help the Recipient run its organization. If the Recipient is permitted to make copies of copyrighted materials in order to carry out the purposes for which the Confidential Information is provided, it is best for the Owner to be explicit about what is authorized, rather than leave it to implication.
