5.1 Definition. The term “Confidential Information” shall mean: (i) any and all information which is disclosed by either party (“Owner”) to the other (“Recipient”) verbally, electronically, visually, or in a written or other tangible form which is either identified or should be reasonably understood to be confidential or proprietary; and (ii) the terms, including without limitation, the pricing, of this Agreement and any proposals or other documents that preceded this Agreement. Confidential Information may include, but not be limited to, trade secrets, computer programs, software, documentation, formulas, data, inventions, techniques, marketing plans, strategies, forecasts, Customer lists, employee information, financial information, confidential information concerning Owner’s business or organization, as Owner has conducted it or as Owner may conduct it in the future.

5.2 Treatment of Confidential Information. Owner’s Confidential Information shall be treated as strictly confidential by Recipient and shall not be disclosed by Recipient to any third party except to those third parties operating under non-disclosure provisions no less restrictive than in this Section and who have a justified business “need to know”. Customer shall protect the deliverables resulting from Services with the same degree of care. This Agreement imposes no obligation upon the Parties with respect to Confidential Information which either party can establish by legally sufficient evidence: (a) was in the possession of, or was rightfully known by the Recipient without an obligation to maintain its confidentiality prior to receipt from Owner; (b) is or becomes generally known to the public without violation of this Agreement; (c) is obtained by Recipient in good faith from a third party having the right to disclose it without an obligation of confidentiality; (d) is independently developed by Recipient without the participation of individuals who have had access to the Confidential Information; or (e) is required to be disclosed by court order or applicable law, provided notice is promptly given to the Owner and provided further that diligent efforts are undertaken to limit disclosure.

Healthcare Customers Only: Dominion Telecom, LLC does not expect to have access to confidential individually identifiable health information (“IIHI”), as that term is used in the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (“HIPAA”) in connection with its fundraising database analytical services. Because Dominion Telecom, LLC does have many healthcare Customers and may inadvertently receive IIHI, it is Dominion Telecom, LLC's policy that it will: (i) treat all donor information in compliance with all applicable federal and state laws; and (ii) implement and use any and all reasonable means and appropriate safeguards to prevent the use or disclosure of such information.

While Dominion Telecom, LLC will use its commercially reasonable best efforts to ensure the privacy of all credit card and other personal information you provide to us, we expressly disclaim, and you hereby release us from, any and all liability for any damage that may result should any such information be released to any third parties.

All amounts due, including disputed amounts, must be paid by the due date regardless of the status of any objection.
