8. CONFIDENTIALITY

a. Definition of Confidential Information. As used herein, "Confidential Information" means all confidential information disclosed by a Party ("Disclosing Party") to the other Party ("Receiving Party"), whether orally or in writing, that is designated as confidential or that reasonably should be understood to be confidential given the nature of the information and the circumstances of disclosure.  Confidential Information of each Party shall include the terms and conditions of this Agreement and all Ordering Documents, as well as business and marketing plans, research, development, services, customers, customer lists, designs, drawings, technology and technical information, products, product plans, software, developments, inventions, processes, formulas, finances, and business processes of such Party; and Portainer’s Confidential Information shall include the Products, the Deliverables and the Documentation.  However, Confidential Information shall not include any information that (i) is or becomes generally known to the public without breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party, (ii) was known to the Receiving Party prior to its disclosure by the Disclosing Party without breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party, (iii) is received from a third party without breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party, or (iv) was independently developed by the Receiving Party without use of or access to the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information.

d. Injunctive Relief.  Each Party acknowledges that the extent of damages in the event of any threatened or actual breach of this Section 8 would be difficult or impossible to ascertain and that there would be available no adequate remedy at law in the event of any such breach.  Each Party therefore agrees that, in the event it breaches this Section 8, the other Party will be entitled to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief, in addition to any other relief to which it may be entitled at law or in equity.  Any such relief shall be in addition to and not in lieu of any relief in the form of monetary damages.
