Confidentiality
Except as otherwise set forth in these terms and conditions, each party agrees that all code, inventions, know-how and business, technical and financial information disclosed to such party (“Receiving Party”) by the disclosing party ("Disclosing Party") constitute the confidential property of the Disclosing Party (“Confidential Information”), provided that it is identified as confidential at the time of disclosure or should be reasonably known by the Receiving Party to be confidential or proprietary due to the nature of the information disclosed and the circumstances surrounding the disclosure. Your data will be considered your Confidential Information and any of our technology and any performance information relating to our services will be deemed our Confidential Information, in each case without any marking or further designation.
Except as expressly authorized herein, the Receiving Party will (1) hold in confidence and not disclose any Confidential Information to third parties and (2) not use Confidential Information for any purpose other than fulfilling its obligations and exercising its rights under these terms and conditions.
The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information to its employees, agents, contractors and other representatives having a legitimate need to know, provided that they are bound to confidentiality obligations no less protective of the Disclosing Party than this Section 11 and that the Receiving Party remains responsible for compliance by them with the terms of this Section 11.
The Receiving Party's confidentiality obligations will not apply to information which the Receiving Party can document:
- was rightfully in its possession or known to it prior to receipt of the Confidential Information;
- is or has become public knowledge through no fault of the Receiving Party;
- is rightfully obtained by the Receiving Party from a third party without breach of any confidentiality obligation; or
- is independently developed by employees of the Receiving Party who had no access to such information.
The Receiving Party may also disclose Confidential Information if so required pursuant to a regulation, law or court order (but only to the minimum extent required to comply with such regulation or order and with advance notice to the Disclosing Party).
The Receiving Party acknowledges that disclosure of Confidential Information would cause substantial harm for which damages alone would not be a sufficient remedy, and therefore that upon any such disclosure by the Receiving Party the Disclosing Party will be entitled to appropriate equitable relief in addition to whatever other remedies it might have at law.

The Data Processing Addendum is incorporated by reference into these terms and conditions and is binding on you and us.
