Confidential Information will not include information that (i) the Receiving Party can show was in its lawful possession, without any confidentiality obligation, prior to its receipt from the Disclosing Party; (ii) is or becomes generally available to the public through no wrongful act or breach of a duty of confidentiality on the part of the Receiving Party or any third party; (iii) is lawfully obtained by the Receiving Party from a third party under no confidentiality obligation; or (iv) is independently developed by the Receiving Party without use of or reference to the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information. Customer’s Confidential Information includes Customer Data. TrackVia’s Confidential Information includes the Platform, Integrations, Recipes, and Documentation.
8.2. Non-Use and Non-Disclosure. Except as expressly permitted in this Agreement or as reasonably necessary for the exercise of rights granted or performance of obligations under this Agreement, the Receiving Party will not use and will protect from disclosure the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information with at least that degree of care used by the Receiving Party in dealing with its own similar Confidential Information, but in no event less than reasonable care, and will take reasonable steps to minimize the risk of disclosure of the Confidential Information to unauthorized parties or persons. The Receiving Party may disclose the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information to the Receiving Party’s Personnel, its legal representatives and auditors, if they have a need to know the information in order to perform their obligations to the Receiving Party and are either (i) subject to written confidentiality obligations or (ii) under ethical obligations of confidentiality, such obligations being at least as restrictive as those described in this Section 8. If the Receiving Party is required by law, regulation, or court order to make any disclosure of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information, the Receiving Party will provide the Disclosing Party with prompt written notice of the requirement, if allowed by law, so that the Disclosing Party may seek a protective order or other appropriate relief. Subject to the foregoing sentence, the Receiving Party may furnish only that portion of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information that the Receiving Party is legally required to disclose. The Receiving Party will also provide reasonable assistance as the Disclosing Party may request in obtaining the order or other relief, at the expense of the Disclosing Party. With respect to any Confidential Information that qualifies as a trade secret under applicable law, the restrictions on use and disclosure in this Section 8 will continue in effect after the termination or expiration of this Agreement for so long as the information qualifies as a trade secret. With respect to Confidential Information that does not qualify as a trade secret under applicable law, the restrictions on use and disclosure will remain in effect during the Term and for five years thereafter. The Receiving Party will promptly notify the Disclosing Party of any use or disclosure of Confidential Information in violation of this Agreement of which the Receiving Party becomes aware.
8.3. Residual Knowledge. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 8, either party will be free to use Residual Knowledge for any purpose, including use in development, manufacture, marketing, and maintenance of its own or its customers’ plans, designs, products, and services.

8.4. Judicial Enforcement. The parties agree that an impending or existing violation of any provision of this Section 8 or any other sections of this Agreement that pertain to ownership or license of intellectual property may cause a party immediate irreparable injury for which it would have no adequate remedy at law, and agree that the party will be entitled to seek immediate injunctive relief prohibiting the violation, in addition to any other available rights and remedies.

15. Indemnification.
15.1. TrackVia Indemnifications.
(a) TrackVia will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Customer and Users (“Customer Indemnitees”) from and against any claims, actions, demands, and causes of action, actual or threatened, (collectively, “Claims”) and pay all damages, settlements, losses, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), and liabilities payable to third parties (collectively, “Damages”) arising from or related to: (i) Claims resulting from TrackVia’s or TrackVia Personnel’s gross negligence or fraud or other intentional tortious misconduct; (ii) Claims involving personal injury, death, damage to real property, or damage to tangible personal property as a result of the negligence of TrackVia or TrackVia Personnel; (iii) Claims by a third party that the Services infringe on any Intellectual Property Right of a third party (“Infringement Claim”), other than a Claim for which Customer has an obligation to indemnify TrackVia as set forth in Section 15.2.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, TrackVia will not indemnify, defend or hold harmless Customer for any Claim or pay any corresponding Damages to the extent the Claim is based on: (i) the Services having been altered or modified by Customer or any third party without TrackVia’s express written consent, (ii) the combination, operation, or use of the Services by Customer with non-TrackVia hardware, software, or other materials (including Customer Development IP) if the infringement would not have occurred but for the combination, operation, or use by Customer, and (iii) any use of the Services in violation of this Agreement or for purposes other than as contemplated by this Agreement. If an injunction arising from an Infringement Claim is threatened or issued against Customer, TrackVia will have the right, at its option and sole expense, to: (A) obtain the rights to continued use of the Services; (B) substitute other suitable, functionally-equivalent, non-infringing application of the Services; (C) modify the Services so that they no longer infringe without materially impairing its usefulness or performance; or (D) if in TrackVia’s sole discretion the foregoing clauses (A), (B) and (C) are commercially impractical, refund to Customer any prepaid Fees and terminate this Agreement.

15.3. Indemnification Generally. The parties acknowledge and agree that the indemnifying party’s obligations under this Section 15 are conditioned upon the indemnified party’s providing the indemnifying party: (i) prompt written notice of the existence of the Claim (although a failure to provide prompt notice will not relieve an indemnifying party of its obligations under this Section 15 unless the failure to provide prompt notice adversely affects the indemnifying party’s ability to defend); (ii) sole control over the defense or settlement of the Claim; and (iii) non-financial assistance at the indemnifying party’s request to the extent reasonably necessary for the defense of the Claim. Without the written consent of the indemnified party, the indemnifying party will not settle any Claim in a manner that requires the indemnified party to pay any amounts of money or admit any liability.
16. Limitations of Liability. In addition to any limitations on the rights, obligations, or liabilities of either party set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, the following limitations apply:
16.1. CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. NEITHER PARTY WILL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE USE, MISUSE, OR INABILITY TO USE THE PLATFORM OR ANY SERVICES (INCLUDING LOSS OF USE OR GOODWILL, INTERRUPTION OF BUSINESS, LOSS OF PROFITS OR REVENUE, AND COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES), OR A BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT, REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF TRACKVIA’S WARRANTIES FAIL OF THEIR ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OR EVEN IF THE OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
16.2. CAP ON LIABILITY. IN NO EVENT WILL EITHER PARTY’S LIABILITY TO THE OTHER PARTY OR ANY THIRD PARTY ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT EXCEED THE AMOUNT OF FEES PAID (AND THEN OWED) BY CUSTOMER TO TRACKVIA UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WITHIN THE TWELVE MONTHS PRECEDING THE DATE THE CLAIM AROSE. THE EXISTENCE OF ONE OR MORE CLAIMS WILL NOT ENLARGE THESE LIMITS.

The limitations set forth in Sections 16.1 and 16.2 do not apply to or otherwise limit either party’s liability for (i) the parties’ obligations under Section 15 (Indemnification), (ii) exceeding the scope of any licenses granted under this Agreement, (iii) a breach by a party of Section 8 (Confidentiality), (iv) claims resulting from a party’s gross negligence or fraud or other intentional tortious misconduct, or (v) claims involving personal injury, death, damage to real property, or damage to tangible personal property as a result of the negligence of a party or its personnel. Because some states and jurisdictions do not allow the limitation of liability in certain instances, portions of the above limitation may not apply to either party.
16.4. ESSENTIAL ELEMENT. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THIS SECTION 16 IS AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THAT IN ITS ABSENCE THE ECONOMIC TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT WOULD BE SUBSTANTIALLY DIFFERENT.

Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement, provided that Customer has paid all Fees payable to TrackVia, during the 30 day period after termination, TrackVia will either upon Customer’s written request, (i) provide a designated Super Admin User limited access to the Platform to download Customer Data from the Platform, or (ii) at Customer’s sole expense, download and provide Customer Data to the designated Super Admin User in a mutually agreeable format and medium.

(b) TrackVia reserves the right to suspend or terminate any User’s access to and use of the Platform Services who engages in any Prohibited Activities or otherwise breaches the terms of this Agreement.

By using the Services, Customer represents and warrants that Customer is not located in any such country or on any such list. Customer also agrees that Customer will not use the Platform Services, including Applications, for any purposes prohibited by United States law, including the development, design, manufacture, or production of missiles or nuclear, chemical, or biological weapons.
19. Disputes
(a) Except as set forth in Section 19(b), The parties will attempt to resolve all disputes, controversies, or claims arising under, out of, or relating to this Agreement, including the formation, validity, binding effect, interpretation, performance, breach or termination, of this Agreement and the arbitrability of the issues submitted to arbitration hereunder and non-contractual claims relating to this Agreement (each, a “Dispute”) through discussion between the parties. If any Dispute cannot be resolved through negotiations between the parties within 5 days of notice from one party to the other of the Dispute, either party may submit such Dispute for final settlement through binding arbitration, administered by JAMS under its then current Streamlined Arbitration Rules & Procedures (the “Rules”).

The arbitration will be confidential and neither party, nor the arbitrator, will disclose any materials disclosed, produced, or generated in relation to the arbitration or the fact that the parties are engaged in a Dispute. The arbitrator will apply the law set forth in Section 19(d) to any such arbitration and shall have the power to award any remedy available at law or in equity; provided, however, that the arbitrator shall have no jurisdiction to amend this Agreement or grant any relief not permitted herein or beyond the relief permitted herein. The award of the arbitrator will be the exclusive remedy of the parties for all claims, counterclaims, issues or accountings presented or plead to the arbitrator. The award of the arbitrator will require the non-prevailing party to pay the prevailing party’s costs, fees and expenses (including attorneys’ fees). Judgment upon the award may be entered in any court or governmental body having jurisdiction thereof. Any additional costs, fees or expenses incurred in enforcing the award may be charged against the party that resists its enforcement.
(b) If TrackVia reasonably believes Customer has, in any manner, violated or threatened to infringe TrackVia’s Intellectual Property Rights, then TrackVia may seek emergency, preliminary or other appropriate interim relief in the state or federal courts located in Denver, Colorado.
