The Party (“Recipient”) receiving from the other Party (“Discloser”) any Confidential Information, or otherwise obtaining any Confidential Information, shall keep confidential Discloser’s Confidential Information and shall protect Discloser’s Confidential Information with the same degree of care as Recipient employs in the protection of its own confidential and proprietary information, but at least with a reasonable degree of care. Without limiting the scope of the foregoing, Recipient shall not copy, reproduce, disclose, circulate or publish Discloser's Confidential Information or permit such action, except as reasonably required for the purpose of the Terms of Service to comply with applicable laws, directives, policies or procedures. Recipient shall disclose Confidential Information only to those of its representatives who have a need to know said Confidential Information for the purpose of the Terms of Service or as permitted herein. Recipient remains liable for any breach of the terms of this Section 11 by its representatives. It remains understood that any disclosure of Confidential Information permitted by Section 12.1 will not constitute a breach of this Section 11.

11.3 Use of Confidential Information. Recipient may not use Discloser's Confidential Information in any manner, except as reasonably required for the purpose of the Terms of Service or as permitted herein.

11.4 Exclusions. The restrictions imposed by this Section 11 shall not apply to Confidential Information that Recipient can demonstrate (i) is now, or which hereafter, through no act or failure to act on the part of Recipient, becomes generally known or available to the public without breach of these Terms of Service; (ii) is known to Recipient at the time of disclosure of such Confidential Information, provided that Recipient can satisfactorily demonstrate such prior knowledge by appropriate written records antedating the disclosure and that such knowledge was not gained from third parties through breach of an obligation of confidentiality; (iii) is hereafter furnished to Recipient in good faith by a third party without breach by such third party, either directly or indirectly, of an obligation of confidentiality to Discloser; or (iv) is approved for such use or disclosure by written authorization of Discloser.

In the event Recipient becomes legally compelled to disclose any portion of Discloser’s Confidential Information, Recipient immediately shall give notice thereof to Discloser, to the extent allowable, and shall collaborate with Discloser reasonably and in good faith to prevent or limit the disclosure or obtain a protective order or other recourse. In the event that disclosure cannot be prevented, that the protective order or other recourse fails, or that Discloser waives compliance with this provision, Recipient shall disclose only that portion of the Confidential Information which it is legally bound to disclose (as reasonably determined by Recipient) and exercise all reasonable efforts to obtain a reliable guarantee that the confidentiality of the disclosed Confidential Information will be ensured in accordance with the terms hereof.

11.6 Injunctive Relief. Each Party acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this Section 11 are reasonable and necessary to protect the other Party’s legitimate interests. Each Party understands and agrees that the remedies at law for the violation of any of the undertakings or provisions of this Section 11 are insufficient, that such violations will cause irreparable harm within a short period of time, and that the other Party shall be entitled to preliminary injunctive relief or other injunctive relief against any such violation, without the necessity of proving actual damages. Such injunctive relief shall be in addition to, and in no way in limitation of, any and all other remedies the other Party shall have at law or in equity for the enforcement of those undertakings and provisions.

11.7 Assistance. Each Party agrees that it shall notify the other Party if it becomes aware of, or has reasonable grounds to suspect, that the unauthorized disclosure of the Confidential Information of the other Party has occurred or is likely to occur.

Except in any proceeding to enforce the provisions of the Terms of Service or except as otherwise required by law, neither Party shall publicize or disclose to any third party the existence or provisions of the Terms of Service or any of the Fees, terms or conditions hereof, without the prior written consent of the other Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Customer acknowledges and agrees that Kompas may mention, in its corporate brochures, marketing material, press releases and website, that Customer is a customer of Kompas. In that regard, Customer agrees that Kompas may use Customer's corporate names and logos, subject to applicable Customer logo policies.

Each of the Parties agrees that any dispute arising out of or in connection with these Terms of Service, including any question regarding its existence, validity or termination, shall be submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the province of Québec, Canada (district of Montréal). The foregoing choice of jurisdiction and venue shall not prevent either Party from seeking injunctive relief with respect to a violation of Intellectual Property Rights, confidentiality obligations or enforcement or recognition of any award or order in any appropriate jurisdiction.

12.4 Entire Agreement.
