CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

All information accessible on the Website is the confidential information of Aurora, its affiliates or its subsidiaries, including all information regarding cultivars and anything relating to the business of Aurora (“Confidential Information”).

You will, at all times, limit disclosure of all of the Confidential Information strictly to those who also have an account with Aurora which allows them to separately access the Services. Each colleague, contractor or agent with whom You would like to discuss the Confidential Information is required to obtain their own separate account to access the Services. 

You specifically acknowledge that the Confidential Information contains sensitive business information of Aurora. You will, at all times, protect, keep confidential and safeguard all of the Confidential Information using the same degree of care as You uses to protect Your own or Your employer’s similar information, but at least a reasonable degree of care, including: (a) promptly notifying Aurora of any actual or threatened disclosure of Confidential Information and reasonably assisting Aurora to limit and prevent any disclosure of Confidential Information; (b) not, directly or indirectly, using or copying any of the Confidential Information except as strictly necessary to further business discussions with Aurora; (c) complying with all applicable laws with respect to the Confidential Information; and (d) keeping the Confidential Information segregated from other information.

Upon request of Aurora, and in any event as soon as reasonably practicable following the termination of this Agreement, as reasonably determined by Aurora, You will immediately return to Aurora all of the Confidential Information in any form (including copies and extracts) in Your possession or control that are capable of return, and will destroy all others, and will thereafter promptly provide a certificate (of an authorized officer, if appropriate) confirming compliance herewith.  You may destroy electronic Confidential Information using secure, commercially reasonable means provided that You will not directly or indirectly restore or recover such electronic Confidential Information whether through forensics, archives or otherwise (and to the extent of any inadvertent restoration or recovery, such Confidential Information will always be treated in accordance with this Agreement).

Nothing in this Agreement, nor any disclosure of Confidential Information, obligates Aurora to enter into any agreements or to proceed with any relationship, or other transactions, with You or any third party You may represent. To the extent that the Confidential Information is subject to any legal privilege, the parties agree to a commonality of interest therein, and that sharing such Confidential Information is not intended, and will not, waive or diminish its continued privilege.

The Service contains Confidential Information which is proprietary to us, our affiliates and/or our subsidiaries. We assert full copyright protection in the Service and the contents of the Website. Confidential Information posted by us may be protected whether or not it is identified as proprietary to us. You agree not to modify, copy or distribute any such information in any manner whatsoever without having first received the express written permission of Aurora.

You acknowledge that a breach of this Agreement may cause Aurora immediate, irreparable harm for which money may be inadequate recompense.  Upon any actual or threatened breach hereof, Aurora may, without limiting other remedies, seek to enforce this Agreement by injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief, without proof of actual damage or posting of any security bond.

Aside from the obligations regarding Confidential Information, including the return or destruction of the Confidential Information and the provisions regarding ownership of proprietary information and Confidential Information, this Agreement shall terminate immediately upon Aurora terminating or suspending Your access to the Service or Your deletion of Your account.  All obligations regarding Confidential Information will survive termination of this Agreement until such Confidential Information is no longer confidential.
