• Confidential Information means non-public information disclosed by either party, in any form, that is marked confidential or would reasonably be considered confidential. It includes business, technical, product, financial, customer, security and system details, sample data, credentials, and documentation.

• Keep it secure using reasonable technical and organisational measures.
• Do not copy, reverse engineer, or decompile materials except as needed for the purpose.

Information is not confidential if the Recipient shows that it:
