Informal Negotiations To expedite resolution and control the cost of any dispute, controversy, or claim related to these Terms of Use (each a "Dispute" and collectively, the “Disputes”) brought by either you or us (individually, a “Party” and collectively, the “Parties”), the Parties agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute (except those Disputes expressly provided below) informally for at least thirty (30) days before initiating arbitration. Such informal negotiations commence upon written notice from one Party to the other Party.
Exceptions to Informal Negotiations and Arbitration The Parties agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning informal negotiations and binding arbitration: (a) any Disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of the intellectual property rights of a Party; (b) any Dispute related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use; and (c) any claim for injunctive relief. If this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court. CORRECTIONS There may be information on the Site that contains typographical errors, inaccuracies, or omissions, including descriptions, pricing, availability, and various other information.

Confidentiality; Publicity All written information marked as confidential and exchanged between WFH and Ortho while this Agreement is in effect shall be treated as confidential information unless one of the exceptions set out below applies. The party receiving such confidential information shall not, for so long as that information retains its character as confidential information, use (other than in the performance of its obligations or the exercise of its rights hereunder) or disclose such information to any third party (except any Affiliates or those consultants of the receiving party that have an obligation of confidentiality to the receiving party) without the prior written approval of the disclosing party. Information will be deemed nonconfidential at such time as such information either has become public knowledge through no fault of the party receiving such information, or comes to such party from a third party under no obligation of confidentiality with respect to such information or was in the possession of such party prior to the date of disclosure, or is developed by or on behalf of such party without any reliance on confidential information received hereunder or is otherwise required to be disclosed in compliance with an order by a court or other regulatory body having competent jurisdiction. The obligations of the parties set forth in this Section shall survive termination of this Agreement until the third anniversary of the effective date of such termination. Upon termination of this Agreement, all Confidential Information of a disclosing party that is held by a receiving party shall be returned to the disclosing party except that one copy of such Confidential Information shall be retained by counsel for the receiving party to ensure compliance with this Section. Neither party shall originate any publicity, news release or public announcement, written or oral, whether to the public or press, stockholders or otherwise, relating to this Agreement, to any amendment or performances under the Agreement, without the prior written consent of the other which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, except for such announcements as in the opinion of counsel for the party making such announcement is required by law to be made. If a party decides to make an additional announcement required by law under this Agreement, it shall give the other party thirty (30) days advance written notice, or any shorter notice period otherwise required by law, of the text of the announcement so that the other party shall have an opportunity to comment upon the announcement.
Confidentiality of Listing Information Verizon shall accord Ymax Listing Information the same level of confidentiality that Verizon accords its own listing information, and shall use such Listing Information solely for the purpose of providing directory-related services; provided, however, that should Verizon elect to do so, it may use or license Ymax Listing Information for directory publishing, direct marketing, or any other purpose for which Verizon uses or licenses its own listing information, so long as Ymax Customers are not separately identified as such; and provided further that Ymax may identify those of its Customers who request that their names not be sold for direct marketing purposes and Verizon shall honor such requests to the same extent that it does for its own Customers. Verizon shall not be obligated to compensate Ymax for Verizon's use or licensing of Ymax Listing Information.
Annual Negotiations Negotiations will be conducted each year according to the ground rules as mutually agreed upon prior to negotiations. Ground Rules (see APPENDIX F - GROUND RULES) used at the previous year's sessions will serve as the basis for discussing any changes before adopting ground rules for the current negotiating sessions. Such ground rules mutually agreed upon shall assist in the orderly process for negotiations.
