Confidentiality Obligations Each Party or third party whose Confidential Information has been disclosed retains ownership of its Confidential Information. Each Party agrees to (i) protect the Confidential Information received from the Disclosing Party in the same manner as it protects the confidentiality of its own proprietary and confidential materials but in no event with less than reasonable care; and (ii) use the Confidential Information received from the Disclosing Party solely for the purpose of the Agreement. Upon termination of the Agreement or upon written request submitted by the Disclosing Party, whichever comes first, the Receiving Party shall return or destroy, at the Disclosing Party’s choice, all of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, AVEVA shall not be required to return or destroy any such Confidential Information if such return or destruction is impracticable or technically infeasible. Except with respect to its Affiliates, employees, contractors, or agents who need to know Confidential Information in order to support the performance of such Party’s obligations related to the Agreement, and who are contractually bound by confidentiality obligations that are at least as protective as those contained in the Agreement, neither Party shall, disclose to any person any Confidential Information received from the Disclosing Party without the Disclosing Party’s prior written consent. The Receiving Party will be responsible for any breach of this Section 5 (Confidentiality) by its Affiliates, employees, contractors, and agents and any third party to whom it discloses Confidential Information in accordance with this Section 5 (Confidentiality). For Confidential Information that does not constitute a “trade secret” under applicable law, these confidentiality obligations will expire three (3) years after the termination or expiration of the Agreement. For Confidential Information that constitutes a “trade secret” under applicable law, these confidentiality obligations will continue until such information ceases to constitute a “trade secret” under such applicable law. However, the Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information pursuant to an order of a court or governmental agency, provided, that, if permitted by applicable law, the Receiving Party shall first notify the Disclosing Party of such order and afford the Disclosing Party the opportunity to seek a protective order relating to such disclosure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Customer authorizes AVEVA to collect, use, disclose, and modify in perpetuity information or data (including, but not limited to, general usage information and measurements) that is provided by Customer in connection with the use or receipt of the Products and Support Services (or generated or created in the course of AVEVA providing the Products and Support Services) for the purposes of developing, improving, optimizing, and delivering Products and Support Services; provided, however, that any disclosure of such data shall only include information or data that AVEVA develops or derives from such collected data or information (but such disclosure will not include the actual underlying Confidential Information of Customer).
Confidentiality Obligation Information that comes into the possession of the parties in connection with the Agreement and the implementation of the Agreement shall be kept confidential, and shall not be disclosed to any third party without the consent of the other party. If the Customer is a public body, the scope of the confidentiality obligation under this provision shall not go beyond that laid down by the Act of 10 February 1967 relating to Procedure in Cases concerning the Public Administration (Public Administration Act) or corresponding sector-specific regulations. The confidentiality obligation pursuant to this provision shall not prevent the disclosure of information if such disclosure is demanded pursuant to laws or regulations, including any disclosure or right of access pursuant to the Act of 19 May 2006 relating to the Right of Access to Documents in the Public Administration (Freedom of Information Act). The other party shall, if possible, be notified prior to the disclosure of such information. The confidentiality obligation shall not prevent the information from being used when there is no legitimate interest in keeping it confidential, for example when it is in the public domain or is accessible to the public elsewhere. The parties shall take all necessary precautions to prevent unauthorised persons from gaining access to, or knowledge of, confidential information. The confidentiality obligation shall apply to the parties’ employees, subcontractors and other third parties who act on behalf of the parties in connection with the implementation of the Agreement. The parties may only transmit confidential information to such subcontractors and third parties to the extent necessary for the implementation of the Agreement, and provided that they are subjected to a confidentiality obligation corresponding to that stipulated in this clause 2.5. The confidentiality obligation shall not prevent the parties from utilising experience and expertise developed in connection with the implementation of the Agreement. The confidentiality obligation shall continue to apply after the expiry of the Agreement. Employees or others who resign from their positions with one of the parties shall be subjected to a confidentiality obligation following their resignation as well, as far as factors mentioned above are concerned. The confidentiality obligation shall lapse five (5) years after the delivery date, unless otherwise stipulated by law or regulation.
