4. CONFIDENTIALITY
(a) “Confidential Information” means all trade secrets, know-how, inventions, techniques, processes, algorithms, software programs, hardware, schematics, planned product features, functionality, methodology, performance and software source documents relating to the Beta Products, and other information provided by NOMO, whether disclosed orally, in writing, or by examination or inspection, other than information which You can demonstrate (i) was already known to You, other than under an obligation of confidentiality, at the time of disclosure; (ii) was generally available in the public domain at the time of disclosure to You; (iii) became generally available in the public domain after disclosure other than through any act or omission by You; (iv) was subsequently lawfully disclosed to You by a third party without any obligation of confidentiality; or (v) was independently developed by You without use of or reference to any information or materials disclosed by NOMO or its suppliers. Confidential Information shall include without limitation the Beta Products, Documentation, Performance Data, any Updates, information relating to NOMO products, product roadmaps, and other technical, business, financial and product development plans, forecasts and strategies. You shall not use any Confidential Information for any purpose other than as expressly authorized under these Terms. In no event shall You use the Beta Products or any Confidential Information to develop, manufacture, market, sell, or distribute any product or service. In no event shall You disclose any Confidential Information to any third party. Without limiting the foregoing, You shall use at least the same degree of care that it uses to prevent the disclosure of its own confidential information of like importance, but in no event less than reasonable care, to prevent the disclosure of such Confidential Information.
5. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
IT IS UNDERSTOOD THAT THE BETA PRODUCTS ARE PROVIDED WITHOUT CHARGE FOR TESTING AND FEEDBACK PURPOSES. ACCORDINGLY, IN NO EVENT SHALL NOMO OR ITS AFFILIATES HAVE LIABILITY FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, EVEN IF NOMO AND ITS AFFILIATES HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THESE LIMITATIONS SHALL APPLY NOTWITHSTANDING ANY FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY.
6. WARRANTY DISCLAIMER
IT IS UNDERSTOOD THAT THE BETA PRODUCTS, DOCUMENTATION, AND ANY UPDATES MAY CONTAIN ERRORS AND ARE PROVIDED FOR TESTING AND FEEDBACK ONLY. THE BETA PRODUCTS, THE DOCUMENTATION, AND ANY UPDATES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE. NOMO AND ITS SUPPLIERS SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIM ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, NONINFRINGEMENT, AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
You acknowledge that NOMO has not publicly announced the availability of the Beta Products, that NOMO has not promised or guaranteed to You that such Beta Products will be announced or made available to anyone in the future, that NOMO has no express or implied obligation to You to announce or introduce the Beta Products, and that NOMO may not introduce a product similar or compatible with the Beta Products. Accordingly, You acknowledge that any research or development that it performs regarding the Beta Products or any product associated with the Beta Products is done entirely at its own risk. Specifically, the Beta Products may contain features, functionality or modules that will not be included in the final production version of the Beta Products, if released, or that will be marketed separately for additional fees.
7. EQUITABLE REMEDIES
The restrictions contained in these Terms are necessary for the protection of the business and goodwill of NOMO and are considered by Participant to be reasonable for such purpose. Participant agrees that any breach of these Terms is likely to cause NOMO substantial and irrevocable damage which is difficult to measure. Therefore, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, Participant agrees that NOMO, in addition to such other remedies which may be available, shall have the right to obtain an injunction from a court of competent jurisdiction restraining such a breach or threatened breach and the right to specific performance of the provisions of these Terms, without in either case the requirement of posting a bond or other security in support of the same, and Participant hereby waives the adequacy of a remedy at law as a defense to such relief.
8. OTHER PROVISIONS
(a) Governing Law. These Terms, and all disputes arising out of or related thereto, shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of Minnesota without reference to conflict of laws principles. All such disputes shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Hennepin County, Minnesota, and the parties agree and submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction and venue of these courts.
(b) Assignment. You shall not assign these Terms or any rights or obligations hereunder, directly or indirectly, by operation of law, merger, acquisition of stock or assets, or otherwise, without the prior written consent of NOMO. Subject to the foregoing, these Terms shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
(c) Modification. This is the entire agreement between the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and all other terms are rejected. No waiver or modification of these Terms shall be valid unless in writing signed by each party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, NOMO may amend the terms and conditions of these Terms or any other documents and policies referenced herein at any time, including without limitation by posting such revised terms on its website (nomosmartcare.com) or the location of such other document or policy. Such amended terms and conditions shall be binding on Participant on the effective date of such change and shall supersede any prior version (including these Terms) which may have been embedded in or packaged with the Product itself. The waiver of a breach of any term hereof shall in no way be construed as a waiver of any term or other breach hereof. If any provision of these Terms is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be contrary to law the remaining provisions of these Terms shall remain in full force and effect.
