For purposes of this Agreement, any Software provided by Wasabi (including via SaaS) is included within the definition of Wasabi Service. Any such Software is commercial computer software, as such term is defined in 48 C.F.R. §2.101 and is provided with “Restricted Rights”.

You agree that to use the Limited Wasabi Service in compliance with any related Documentation and restrictions. Your use of any Limited Wasabi Service is for the sole purpose of evaluating and testing the applicable service and providing Feedback to Wasabi.

6.  Confidentiality

Either party may, from time to time, provide to the other certain non-public information including business information, pricing, forecasts, financial plans and data, marketing plans, and unannounced product information (“Confidential Information”). Confidential Information shall also include the Wasabi Content, and any other information disclosed by a party to the other party, in whatever form, and designated in writing as proprietary or confidential, or which a reasonable person would understand to be proprietary or confidential in nature. During the term of this Agreement and for three (3) years following its termination, each party will not disclose any such Confidential Information except as set forth herein. The receiving party shall hold in confidence, and shall not disclose any Confidential Information to any person or entity except to an Affiliate, a director, officer, employee, outside consultant, or advisor (collectively “Representatives”) who have a need to know such Confidential Information in the course of the performance of their duties for the receiving party and who are bound by a duty of confidentiality no less protective than this Agreement. The receiving party and its Representatives shall use such Confidential Information only for the purpose for which it was disclosed and shall not use or exploit such Confidential Information for the benefit of another without the prior written consent of the disclosing party. Each party accepts responsibility for the actions of its Representatives and shall protect the other party’s Confidential Information in the same manner as it protects its own valuable confidential information, but in no event, shall less than reasonable care be used. The parties expressly agree that the terms of this Agreement are Confidential Information and you further agree you will not use the Wasabi Service for the purposes of conducting comparative analysis, evaluations or product benchmarks with respect to the services and will not publicly post any analysis or reviews of the services without Wasabi’s prior written approval. A receiving party shall promptly notify the disclosing Party upon becoming aware of a breach or threatened breach hereunder and shall cooperate with any reasonable request of the disclosing party in enforcing its rights.

Confidential Information excludes information that: (a) is known prior to receipt from the disclosing party, without any obligation of confidentiality; (b) becomes known to the receiving party directly or indirectly from a source other than one having an obligation of confidentiality to the disclosing party; (c) becomes publicly known or otherwise publicly available, except through a breach of this Agreement; (d) is independently developed by the receiving party without use of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information; or (e) is Your Content, which shall instead by governed by the terms of the DPA. The receiving party may disclose Confidential Information pursuant to the requirements of applicable law, legal process or government regulation, provided that, where legally permitted to do so, it gives the disclosing party reasonable prior written notice to permit the disclosing party to contest such disclosure, and such disclosure is otherwise limited to the required disclosure.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, both parties acknowledge that any unpermitted use of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information may cause the disclosing party irreparable and immediate damage for which remedies other than injunctive relief may be inadequate. Therefore, both parties agree that, in addition to any other remedy which the disclosing party may be entitled hereunder, at law or equity, the disclosing party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions (without the posting of any bond and without proof of actual damages) to restrain such use. Either party may request the other party return or destroy their Confidential Information at any time, except such Confidential Information retained through industry-standard automatic archival processes.
