Utilization of Directory Entries. The RCE Directory Service and Directory Entries contained therein shall be used by QHINs solely as necessary to create and maintain operational connectivity to enable TEFCA Exchange. Upstream QPS is providing You with access to, and the right to use, Directory Entries on the express condition that You only use and disclose Directory Entry information as necessary to advance the intended use of the Directory Entries or as required by Applicable Law. For example, You are permitted to disclose Directory Entry information to Your Workforce Members, Your Subparticipant’s Workforce Members, and/or to the Workforce Members of health information technology vendors who are engaged in assisting You or Your Subparticipant with establishing and maintaining connectivity via the Framework Agreements. Further, You shall not use another QPS’s Directory Entries or information derived therefrom for marketing or any form of promotion of Your own products and services, unless otherwise permitted pursuant to an SOP. In no event shall You use or disclose the information contained in the Directory Entries in a manner that should be reasonably expected to have a detrimental effect on ONC, the RCE, Upstream QPS, Your Subparticipants, other QHINs, other Participants, other Subparticipants, or any other individual or organization. For the avoidance of doubt, Directory Entries are Confidential Information of the CI Discloser except to the extent such information meets one of the exceptions to the definition of Confidential Information. Nothing herein shall be interpreted to prohibit a QHIN or Upstream QPS from publicly disclosing the identity of its own Participants or Subparticipants.
