5. CONFIDENTIALITY.

5.1.           Confidential Information. Each Party (the “Receiving Party”) understands that the other Party (the “Disclosing Party”) during the Term has been, and may be, exposed to or acquired information about the Disclosing Party’s business affairs, products, confidential intellectual property, pricing metrics or analytics, financial information, trade secrets, third-party confidential information, and other sensitive or proprietary information, whether orally or in written, electronic, or other form or media, and whether or not marked, designated or otherwise identified as “confidential” (collectively, “Confidential Information”). Confidential Information does not include information that, at the time of disclosure is: (a) information which at the time of disclosure or acquisition is in the public domain, or which after disclosure or acquisition becomes part of the public domain without violation of this Section 5; (b) known to the Receiving Party at the time of disclosure; (c) rightfully obtained by the Receiving Party on a non-confidential basis from a third party; (d) information that the Receiving Party develops independently without any use of or reference to the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party, as evidenced by contemporaneous written records; or (e) is required to be disclosed to governmental agencies having regulatory authority or other authority of the Receiving Party, or (f) is required by a court order to disclose or to provide such Confidential Information, provided that Receiving Party shall use its best efforts, to the extent permitted by law to do so, to promptly give Disclosing Party written prior notice to any disclosure under this clause (e) or (f) so that Disclosing Party can seek a protective order by any court orders to provide access to, or copies of, such information. The Receiving Party shall not disclose the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information to any person or entity, except to the Receiving Party’s employees who have a need to know the Confidential Information for the Receiving Party to exercise its rights or perform its obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party may disclose Confidential Information to the limited extent required to establish a Party’s rights under this Agreement, including to make required court filings. On the expiration or termination of this Agreement, the Receiving Party shall promptly return to the Disclosing Party all copies, whether in written, electronic, or other form or media, of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information, or destroy all such copies and certify in writing to the Disclosing Party that such Confidential Information has been destroyed. Each Party’s obligations of non-disclosure with regard to Confidential Information are effective as of the Effective Date and will expire five (5) years from the date of termination or expiration of this Agreement; provided, however, with respect to any Confidential Information that constitutes a trade secret (as determined under applicable law), such obligations of non-disclosure will survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement for as long as such Confidential Information remains subject to trade secret protection under applicable law.

5.2.           Non-use and Non-disclosure. With respect to Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party, the Receiving Party agrees to: (i) use the same degree of care to protect the confidentiality, and prevent the unauthorized use or disclosure, of such Confidential Information it uses to protect its own proprietary and confidential information of like nature, which shall not be less than a reasonable degree of care, (ii) hold all such Confidential Information in strict confidence and not use, sell, copy, transfer reproduce, or divulge such Confidential Information to any third party, (iii) not use such Confidential Information for any purposes whatsoever other than the performance of, or as otherwise authorized by, this Agreement.

5.3.           Remedies for Breach of Obligation of Confidentiality. The Receiving Party acknowledges that breach of its obligation of confidentiality may cause irreparable harm to the Disclosing Party for which the Disclosing Party may not be fully or adequately compensated by recovery of monetary damages. Accordingly, in the event of any violation, or threatened violation, by the Receiving Party of its obligations under this Section, the Disclosing Party shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief from a court of competent jurisdiction in addition to any other remedy that may be available at law or in equity, without the necessity of posting bond or proving actual damages.

6. PROPRIETARY RIGHTS.

Customer acknowledges that KLER owns all right, title, and interest, including all intellectual property rights, in and to the KLER IP and, with respect to Third-Party Products, the applicable third-party providers own all right, title, and interest, including all intellectual property rights, in and to the Third-Party Products.

6.2.           Customer Data.

Customer is responsible for providing complete and accurate billing and contact information to KLER and notifying KLER of any changes to such information.

7.4.           Overdue Charges. If any invoiced amount is not received by KLER by the due date detailed on the applicable Order Form, then without limiting KLER’s other rights or remedies, those overdue Fees may accrue late interest at the rate of 1.5% per month of the outstanding balance per month, or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is lower.

7.5.           Taxes. All Fees and other amounts payable by Customer under this Agreement are exclusive of taxes and similar assessments.
