CONFIDENTIALITY
During the Term, Publisher may have access to certain non-public, proprietary, confidential and/or trade secret information of Glue, whether written or oral, and regardless of the manner in which it is furnished, which given the totality of the circumstances, a reasonable person or entity should have reason to believe is proprietary, confidential, or competitively sensitive (together: “glue’s Confidential Information”). Publisher agrees: (i) not to disclose any of glue’s Confidential Information to any third parties; (ii) not to use any of glue’s Confidential Information for any purposes except to carry out its rights and responsibilities under this Agreement; and (iii) to keep Glue’s Confidential Information confidential using the same degree of care Publisher uses to protect its own confidential information, which shall in any event not be less than a reasonable degree of care.
At any time during the Term, upon the written request of glue, Publisher shall return to glue, or destroy, in accordance with glue’s written instructions, all of glue’s Confidential Information in its possession, including any writing or recordings whatsoever prepared by Publisher based upon glue’s Confidential Information, and Publisher shall provide glue with a written certificate, signed by an authorized officer of Publisher, evidencing the complete and full execution of the provisions of this Section 11.
Unauthorized disclosure or use of glue’s Confidential Information may give rise to the irreparable injury, which may not be adequately compensated by damages. Publisher agrees and acknowledges that money damages are not a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Agreement by the Publisher and that glue shall be entitled to specific performance or injunctive relief (as appropriate) as a remedy for any breach or threatened breach thereof, in addition to any other remedies available at law or in equity.
Publisher acknowledges and agrees that glue may provide to the applicable authorities or any court of competent jurisdiction information contained in or related to the Publisher Account in the event that glue is required by legal process, the order of any court of competent jurisdiction, or any applicable law, rule or regulation to provide such information.
Publisher shall keep in strict confidence and shall not disclose to any third party any of glue’s Confidential Information during the Term hereunder and for a period of three (3) years following the termination of this Agreement.
