In order to evaluate and possibly enter into a business transaction (the “Purpose”), Google LLC (f/k/a Google Inc.), for itself and its subsidiaries and affiliates, and the other party identified below (“You”) hereby agree:
-
1. The Effective Date of this agreement is the date this agreement is accepted by the party identified below.
-
2. A party (the “Discloser”) may disclose to the other party (the “Recipient”) information pertaining to the Purpose that the Discloser considers confidential (“Confidential Information”).
-
3. Recipient may use Confidential Information only for the Purpose. Recipient must use a reasonable degree of care to protect Confidential Information and to prevent any unauthorized use or disclosure of Confidential Information. Recipient may share Confidential Information with its employees, directors, agents or third party contractors who need to know it and if they have agreed with either party in writing to keep information confidential.
-
4. Confidential Information does not include information that: (a) was known to Recipient without restriction before receipt from Discloser; (b) is publicly available through no fault of Recipient; (c) is rightfully received by Recipient from a third party without a duty of confidentiality; or (d) is independently developed by Recipient. A party may disclose Confidential Information when compelled to do so by law if it provides reasonable prior notice to the other party, unless a court orders that the other party not be given notice.
-
5. Either party may terminate this agreement with thirty days prior written notice, but this agreement’s provisions will survive as to Confidential Information that is disclosed before termination.
-
6. Unless the parties otherwise agree in writing, Recipient’s duty to protect Confidential Information expires five years from disclosure.
-
7. This agreement imposes no obligation to proceed with any business transaction.
-
8. No party acquires any intellectual property rights under this agreement except the limited rights necessary to use the Confidential Information for the Purpose.
-
9. This agreement does not create any agency or partnership relationship. This agreement is not assignable or transferable by either party without the prior written consent of the other party.
-
10. This agreement is the parties’ entire agreement on this topic, superseding any prior or contemporaneous agreements. Any amendments must be in writing. The parties may execute this agreement in counterparts, which taken together will constitute one instrument. Failure to enforce any of provisions of this agreement will not constitute a waiver.
-
11. This agreement is governed by the laws of the State of California, excluding its conflicts-of-laws principles. The parties will try in good faith to settle any dispute relating to this Agreement ("Dispute") within thirty days after such Dispute arises. If the Dispute is not resolved within thirty days, it must be resolved by arbitration by the International Centre for Dispute Resolution of the American Arbitration Association and conducted in accordance with its Expedited Commercial Rules in force as of the date of this Agreement. There will be one arbitrator selected by mutual agreement of the parties. The arbitration will be conducted in English in Santa Clara County, California, USA. Either party may apply to any court having jurisdiction for injunctive relief necessary to protect its rights pending resolution of the arbitration. Any decision rendered by the arbitrator will be final and binding on the parties, and judgment thereon may be entered by any court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitrator may order equitable or injunctive relief consistent with the remedies and limitations in this Terms and Conditions. All information disclosed in connection with the arbitration, including the existence of the arbitration, will be confidential information. The parties may, however, disclose such information to an appropriate court under confidentiality restrictions, as necessary to seek enforcement of any arbitration award or judgment or to seek any relief permitted under the terms hereof.
