Common use of Carrier Lines Clause in Contracts

Carrier Lines. The Participating Agency acknowledges that the Transmittal of data between Participating Agencies, the Data Recipient and the Data Integration Hub is to be provided over various facilities and communications lines, and data shall be transmitted over local exchange and Internet backbone carrier lines and through routers, switches, and other devices (collectively, “carrier lines”) owned, maintained, and serviced by third-party carriers, utilities, and Internet service providers, all of which may be beyond the Participating Agency’s control. Provided the Participating Agency uses reasonable security measures, no less stringent than those directives, instructions, and specifications contained in the E-MOU, its Specifications, and applicable federal and state law, the Participating Agency assumes no liability for or relating to the integrity, privacy, security, confidentiality, or use of any data while it is transmitted over those carrier lines, which are beyond Participating Agency’s control, or any delay, failure, interruption, interception, loss, Transmittal, or corruption of any data or other information attributable to Transmittal over those carrier lines which are beyond Participating Agency’s control. The use of the carrier lines is solely at the Participating Agency’s risk and is subject to all applicable federal and state law. If a Breach occurs and it is determined that it happened because of a carrier issue, the Participating Agency responsible for the Transmittal of Data is the responsible party for the Breach notification. However, data should be encrypted using current industry standard algorithms agreed on by the parties involved before transmission occurs.
