10. Confidentiality

a. Confidential Information. Each party acknowledges that it or its employees may, in the course of performing its responsibilities under this Evaluation Agreement, be exposed to or acquire information which is proprietary or confidential to the other party. “Confidential Information” means information disclosed under this Evaluation Agreement that is designated by the disclosing party as proprietary or confidential or that should be reasonably understood to be proprietary or confidential due to its nature and the circumstances of its disclosure. Collibra’s Confidential Information includes any technical or performance information about the Evaluation Offering. Confidential Information excludes information that the receiving party can document (a) is or becomes public knowledge through no fault of the receiving party, (b) it rightfully knew or possessed prior to receipt under this Evaluation Agreement, (c) it rightfully received from a third-party without breach of confidentiality obligations or (d) it independently developed without using the disclosing party’s Confidential Information.

Each party will use reasonable care to protect the Confidential Information in the same manner as it would protect its own Confidential Information of a similar nature, but in no event with less than reasonable care. The receiving party may disclose Confidential Information to its employees, agents, contractors and other representatives having a legitimate need to know, provided it remains responsible for their compliance with this Section 10 and they are bound to confidentiality obligations no less protective than this Section 10. Unauthorized use or disclosure of Confidential Information may cause substantial harm for which damages alone are an insufficient remedy. Each party may seek appropriate equitable relief, in addition to other available remedies, for breach or threatened breach of this Section 10.

b. Required Disclosures. Nothing in this Evaluation Agreement prohibits either party from making disclosures, including Content and other Confidential Information, if required by applicable law, subpoena or court order, provided (if permitted by applicable law) it notifies the other party in advance and reasonably cooperates in any effort to obtain confidential treatment at disclosing party’s expense.
