In the course of performance of these Terms, the parties may exchange confidential information (“Confidential Information”). The term Confidential Information shall include (a) customer data, other than on an aggregated basis; (b) personal information; and (c) any other information which by its nature or the circumstances surrounding its disclosure would reasonably be considered confidential.

The receiving party shall exercise the same degree of care to prevent unauthorized use or disclosure of Confidential Information to others as it takes to preserve and safeguard its own Confidential Information, but in any event, no less than a reasonable degree of care. The receiving party shall use the Confidential Information of the disclosing party only for the purpose of enabling each of the parties to perform its business relationship with the other as described in these Terms. The receiving party shall not directly or indirectly disclose such Confidential Information to any person or company without the prior written approval of the disclosing party; provided however, that the receiving party may disclose the Confidential Information to its (i) employees who have a need to know such Confidential Information in connection with these Terms, namely in order to administer the Website; or (ii) agents, mandataries, contractors or suppliers who have executed a nondisclosure agreement affording at least the same confidentiality obligations as described herein.

Disclosure of Confidential Information in response to a valid order of a court or other governmental agency shall not be a breach of this Section, if the disclosure is limited to the extent of and for the purposes of such order; provided, however, that the receiving party shall first notify the disclosing party in writing of the order and permit the disclosing party to seek a protective order, unless such notification is otherwise prohibited by law.

Subject to any information provided by user to Company which has been aggregated, cumulated or integrated into unidentifiable proprietary Company data and statistics, any and all Confidential Information disclosed shall remain the property of the disclosing party. Within ten (10) days following the receipt of a written notice by the disclosing party, the receiving party shall, at the disclosing party's option, delete and certify that it has deleted, all copies in its possession or control of any and all documents, computer files and other materials that contain any segregated and identifiable Confidential Information of the disclosing party. However, if Company is required by law to retain the Confidential Information or if the Confidential Information is stored in a manner such that it cannot readily be returned or destroyed without affecting other data, then Company shall continue to protect such Confidential Information in accordance with these Terms and limit any use to the purpose of such retention.
