Use and Disclosure All Confidential Information of a party will be held in confidence by the other party with at least the same degree of care as such party protects its own confidential or proprietary information of like kind and import, but not less than a reasonable degree of care. Neither party will disclose in any manner Confidential Information of the other party in any form to any person or entity without the other party’s prior consent. However, each party may disclose relevant aspects of the other party’s Confidential Information to its officers, affiliates, agents, subcontractors and employees to the extent reasonably necessary to perform its duties and obligations under this Agreement and such disclosure is not prohibited by applicable law. Without limiting the foregoing, each party will implement physical and other security measures and controls designed to protect (a) the security and confidentiality of Confidential Information; (b) against any threats or hazards to the security and integrity of Confidential Information; and (c) against any unauthorized access to or use of Confidential Information. To the extent that a party delegates any duties and responsibilities under this Agreement to an agent or other subcontractor, the party ensures that such agent and subcontractor are contractually bound to confidentiality terms consistent with the terms of this Section 11.
Use and Disclosure Restrictions Neither party will use the other party’s Confidential Information except as necessary for the performance of this Agreement and will not disclose such Confidential Information to any third party except to those of its Affiliates, employees and subcontractors that need to know such Confidential Information for the purpose of performing by or on behalf of the receiving party in connection with this Agreement, provided that each such Affiliate, employee or subcontractor is subject to a written agreement that includes binding use and disclosure restrictions that are at least as protective as those set forth herein. Each party will use at least the same degree of care to prevent unauthorized use and disclosure of such Confidential Information as that party uses with respect to its own Confidential Information of similar sensitivity (but in no event less than a reasonable degree of care). The foregoing obligations will not restrict either party from disclosing Confidential Information of the other party: (a) pursuant to the order or requirement of a court, administrative agency, or other governmental body, provided that the party required to make such a disclosure gives reasonable notice to the other party to contest such order or requirement or seek protective measures against such disclosure, and (b) on a confidential basis to its legal or financial advisors. In addition, each party may disclose the terms and conditions of this Agreement: (i) as required under applicable securities regulations, and (ii) on a confidential basis to present or future providers of venture capital and/or potential private investors in or acquirers of such party.
