CONTRACTOR, therefore, agrees that data, material and information gathered, based upon, or disclosed under this AGREEMENT shall not be disclosed to others without the DEPARTMENT'S prior written approval. The DEPARTMENT agrees that it shall notify CONTRACTOR in advance of any information that it deems confidential. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood that the patient medical records are subject to certain provisions of state and federal law and rules of the DEPARTMENT.

The Contractor shall not disclose said information without the Contract Administrator's written consent.
Confidentiality of Department Information. Unless otherwise required by applicable law, all material that either party makes available to the other in connection with carrying out this Agreement and that is either marked with a restrictive legend of the discloser or if not marked with such legend or is disclosed orally, is identified as confidential at the time of disclosure (“Confidential Information”) will be protected by the receiving party using the same care and discretion to avoid disclosure, publication or dissemination of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information as the receiving party uses with its own similar information that it does not wish to disclose, publish or disseminate. The ideas, concepts, knowledge, or techniques, developed during the course of this Agreement by the Contractor, by the City or jointly by the Contractor and the City, in furnishing assistance under this Agreement, can be used by either party in any way it may deem appropriate. Nothing contained herein will require either party to hold in confidence any ideas, knowledge, concepts or techniques. In addition, neither party will be required to keep confidential any data which is or becomes publicly available, is already in the receiving party’s possession without obligation of confidentiality, is independently developed by the receiving party outside the scope of this Agreement, or is rightfully obtained from third parties. Confidential material will be held in confidence for five (5) years from the date of disclosure, unless a longer time period is required by law or statute, without the possibility of contractual waiver. The recipient of Confidential Information may disclose the Confidential Information to the extent required by law. However, the recipient will give the other party prompt notice to allow such other party a reasonable opportunity to obtain a protective order.
