CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

Confidential information (CI) is any information disclosed by one party to the other or disclosed to a party by third parties on the direction of the party who is a cosigner to the agreement. CI cannot be used for commercial or other beneficial purposes. The receiving party cannot disclose CI to anyone other than employees required to be privy to CI who must also sign a similar agreement. The receiving party cannot use CI to build any prototypes or other tangible objects that violate confidentiality. No copies can be made of CI unless previously agreed upon. If CI is disclosed, the receiving party must immediately inform the disclosing party. The disclosure of CI does not make either party obligatory of any transaction. All CI provided by the disclosing party is as-is and without warranty to the accuracy of the same. The receiving party must return all documents and copies of CI to the disclosing party at the agreement’s termination. Signing this agreement does not give either party the patent, mask work, or copyright of CI. Your agreement is valid for one year from the date on which CI is disclosed. The agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their successors and assigns. It cannot be amended, nor any obligation waived, except by a writing signed by both parties.
