6. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

  1. “Confidential Information” means all non-public information acquired by a party (the “Receiving Party”) in connection with this agreement or from the other party (the “Disclosing Party”) that (i) is marked “confidential” or “proprietary”, (ii) the Disclosing Party orally or in writing has advised the Receiving Party is confidential, or (iii) based on the nature of the material or the circumstances under which it was disclosed, a reasonable person would believe to be confidential at the time of disclosure. “Confidential Information” includes but is not limited to pricing information, computer programs, names and expertise of employees and consultants, know-how, business proposals, plans and operations, and other technical, business, customer, financial and product development information of Disclosing Party.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the terms of this agreement and the API Services are Confidential Information of Dataminr, and any non-public information provided by Customer in connection with the API Services is the Confidential Information of Customer.  Confidential Information does not include information that at the time of disclosure is publicly available or becomes publicly available through no act or omission of the Receiving Party; that is or has been disclosed to the Receiving Party by a third party who is not under (and to whom the Receiving Party does not owe) an obligation of confidentiality with respect thereto; or that is or has been independently acquired or developed by the Receiving Party. Additionally, the obligations of this Section 6 shall not apply if the Receiving Party discloses Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to the extent disclosure is required by court order or is otherwise required by law, on condition that, to the extent permitted by law, notice of such requirement by law for such disclosure is given to the Disclosing Party prior to making any such use or disclosure.  
  2. The Receiving Party will not use any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party for any purpose other than performing its obligations or exercising its rights under this agreement, and will disclose the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party only to Receiving Party’s employees, agents and contractors on a “need to know” basis, provided such persons are under an obligation with the Receiving Party to maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information, which obligation is consistent with, and no less protective of Confidential Information, than the terms of this Section 6.  The Receiving Party will protect the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information from unauthorized use, access, or disclosure in the same manner as the Receiving Party protects its own confidential or proprietary information of a similar nature and with no less than reasonable care. Each party shall be responsible for any breach of this agreement by any party to whom it has disclosed Confidential Information.  Each party shall use all reasonable efforts to assist the other party in identifying and preventing any unauthorized use or disclosure of any Confidential Information.  Receiving Party shall advise Disclosing Party immediately in the event Receiving Party learns or has reason to believe that any person who has had access to Confidential Information has violated or intends to violate the terms of this agreement and each party will cooperate with the other party in seeking injunctive or other equitable relief against any such person.  Each party acknowledges that in the event of any breach or threatened breach of this Section by either party, the other party may suffer irreparable harm and not possess an adequate remedy at law. Accordingly, each party shall have the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief to restrain such breach or threatened breach. 
  3. Upon termination of this agreement, the Receiving Party shall return to the Disclosing Party or destroy (at the Disclosing Party’s option) all Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party, and all copies and extracts of the foregoing. Upon request of the Disclosing Party, the Receiving Party shall provide written certification of this destruction to the Disclosing Party.
