3. Confidentiality:

3.1. The term “Confidential Information” as used in the Agreement means, in respect of either Party, all non‐public, confidential or proprietary information or materials disclosed or otherwise acquired by the Party receiving the information (“Receiving Party”) from the Party disclosing the information (“Disclosing Party”), whether or not such information is written or oral or labeled or otherwise identified as confidential or proprietary by the Disclosing Party. Such information includes, without limitation, information related to the Disclosing Party’s trade secrets; trademarks; knowhow; technologies; techniques, systems or processes; existing or future products; client lists; client names and contact details; the names and details of imports and exports; business plans of all corporate parties with whom the Disclosing Party has a relationship with for the supply of services to such parties or to the customers of such parties which shall include but not be limited to the Referral Client; business plans; financial information; accounting statements or audits; and any other information relating to the business or products of the Disclosing Party.

No other use of the Confidential Information is permitted without the prior written consent of the Disclosing Party.

3.3. From the date of its disclosure until 10 years after the termination date, the Receiving Party shall protect the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information by using the same degree of care, but no less than a reasonable degree of care, as the Receiving Party uses to protect its own Confidential Information of a like nature. The Receiving Party shall further restrict disclosure of such Confidential Information to those of its directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors, including lawyers, accountants and financial advisors (collectively known as the “Representatives”) who have a need to know such Confidential Information in the course of the performance of their duties for the Receiving Party and who are bound by a duty of confidentiality no less protective of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information than as set out in the Agreement.

The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information pursuant to the requirements of applicable law, legal process or government regulation, provided that it gives the Disclosing Party reasonable prior written notice, to the extent such notice is not prohibited by law, to permit the Disclosing Party to contest such disclosure. The Receiving Party shall ensure that any such disclosure in terms of this clause 4.4 shall be limited to the required disclosure.

3.5. The Receiving Party shall notify the Disclosing Party immediately upon discovery of any unauthorized use or disclosure of the Confidential Information and will cooperate with the Disclosing Party in every reasonable way for the Disclosing Party to regain possession of the Confidential Information and prevent further unauthorized use or disclosure.

3.6. All Confidential Information shall remain the sole and exclusive property of the Disclosing Party and the Receiving Party shall not acquire any license, intellectual property rights or legal or equitable interest in the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information except for the limited right to make copies as necessary, and in accordance with the Agreement, for the Permitted Purpose.

4. Data protection:

5. Liability:

5.1. Playroll shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company on demand against any claims, liabilities, losses, costs, proceedings, damages or expenses arising out of or in connection with any breach by Playroll of any of the provisions of the Agreement (“Damages”). The quantum of the Damages will be limited to the value of the Referral Fee paid to the Company within 1 (one) year prior to the incident giving rise to the Damages.

5.2. Playroll will not be liable to Company or to any third party in relation to the Agreement for any indirect, unforeseeable, special, punitive, exemplary, or consequential damages whatsoever, including but not limited to property damage, loss of use, loss of business, economic loss, loss of data or loss of profits, without regard to the form of action (including but not limited to contract, negligence, or other actions for extra-contractual liability) arising out of or in connection with the Agreement, materials; and/or the Playroll Services.
