Duty of Confidentiality Licensee will protect the TCK as Oracle Confidential Information protected under this Section 6.0. A party receiving Confidential Information may not: (i) disclose Confidential Information to any third party, except that such party may exchange comments or questions concerning its use or the results of using the TCK, including relevant excerpts of the TCK, provided such TCK excerpts are inherently part of such results, but not the non-relevant portions of the TCK itself, or (ii) use Confidential Information except for the purpose of developing and testing Products. The receiving party will protect the confidentiality of Confidential Information to the same degree of care, but no less than reasonable care, as such party uses to protect its own Confidential Information. Obligations regarding Confidential Information will expire three (3) years from the date of receipt of the Confidential Information, except for source code, which will be protected by Licensee in perpetuity.
Obligation of Confidentiality The parties agree to hold all Confidential Information in strict confidence and not to copy, reproduce, sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of, give or disclose such Confidential Information to third parties other than employees, agents, or subcontractors of a party who have a need to know in connection with this Contract or to use such Confidential Information for any purposes whatsoever other than the performance of this Contract. The parties agree to advise and require their respective employees, agents, and subcontractors of their obligations to keep all Confidential Information confidential. Disclosure to a subcontractor is permissible where: (a) use of a subcontractor is authorized under this Contract; (b) the disclosure is necessary or otherwise naturally occurs in connection with work that is within the subcontractor's responsibilities; and (c) Contractor obligates the subcontractor in a written contract to maintain the State's Confidential Information in confidence. At the State's request, any employee of Contractor or any subcontractor may be required to execute a separate agreement to be bound by the provisions of this Section.
Breach of Confidentiality Contractor acknowledges that there can be no adequate remedy at law for any breach of Contractor’s obligations hereunder, that any such breach will likely result in irreparable harm, and therefore, that upon any breach or threatened breach of the confidentiality obligations, the Court shall be entitled to appropriate equitable relief, without the requirement of posting a bond, in addition to its other remedies at law. INDEMNIFICATION
Limits of Confidentiality The law protects the privacy of all communications between a patient and a psychologist. In most situations, I can only release information about your treatment to others if you sign a consent form that meets certain legal requirements imposed by HIPAA and/or Maryland law. However, in the following situations, no authorization is required: I may occasionally find it helpful to consult other health and mental health professionals about a case. During a consultation, I make every effort to avoid revealing the identity of my patient. The other professionals are also legally bound to keep the information confidential. If you don’t object, I will not tell you about these consultations unless I feel that it is important to our work together. I will note all consultations in your Clinical Record (which is called “PHI” in my Notice of Psychologist’s Policies and Practices to Protect the Privacy of Your Health Information). Disclosures required by health insurers or to collect overdue fees are discussed elsewhere in this Agreement. If you are involved in a court proceeding and a request is made for information concerning your diagnosis and treatment, such information is protected by the psychologist-patient privilege law. I cannot provide any information without your written authorization, or a court order. If you are involved in or contemplating litigation, you should consult with your attorney to determine whether a court would be likely to order me to disclose information. If a government agency is requesting the information for health oversight activities, I may be required to provide it for them. If a patient files a complaint or lawsuit against me, I may disclose relevant information regarding that patient in order to defend myself. There are some situations in which I am legally obligated to take actions, which I believe are necessary to attempt to protect others from harm and I may have to reveal some information about a patient’s treatment. These situations are unusual in my practice: If I have reason to believe that a child, adolescent, or vulnerable adult has been subjected to abuse or neglect, or that a vulnerable adult has been subjected to self-neglect, or exploitation, the law requires that I file a report with the appropriate government agency, usually the local office of the Department of Social Services. Once such a report is filed, I may be required to provide additional information. If I know that a patient has a propensity for violence and the patient indicates that he/she has the intention to inflict imminent physical injury upon a specified victim(s), I may be required to take protective actions. These actions may include establishing and undertaking a treatment plan that is calculated to eliminate the possibility that the patient will carry out the threat, seeking hospitalization of the patient and/or informing the potential victim or the police about the threat. If I believe that there is an imminent risk that a patient will inflict serious physical harm or death on him/herself, or that immediate disclosure is required to provide for the patient’s emergency health care needs, I may be required to take appropriate protective actions, including initiating hospitalizations and/or notifying family members or others who can protect the patient. If such a situation arises, I will make every effort to fully discuss it with you before taking any action and I will limit my disclosure to what is necessary. While this written summary of exceptions to confidentiality should prove helpful in informing you about potential problems, it is important that we discuss any questions or concerns that you may have, now or in the future. The laws governing confidentiality can be quite complex, and I am not an attorney. In situations where specific advice is required, formal legal advice may be needed. Professional Records The laws and standards of the profession require that I keep Protected Health Information (PHI) about each client in their clinical record. In some circumstances, I may keep some information in two sets of professional records. One set is your clinical record. It includes information about your reasons for seeking therapy and how these and related issues impact on your life, your diagnosis, goals for treatment, progress towards the goals, your medical treatment and social history, past treatment records I receive from other providers, reports of professional consultations, billing records, and any reports to insurance carriers or others. You may choose, in writing, to examine and/or receive a copy of your clinical record. Because professional records can be misinterpreted it would be important to first review them together or with another mental health professional. In very unusual circumstances, such as a situation in which in my professional judgment disclosing information would endanger someone’s life, then clinical records would not be released. In those situations, the person would have a right to a summary and to have their record sent to another mental health provider. A copying fee of $.60 per page will be charged. There may be other associated costs for review of records. The other set I keep in some instances is a set of psychotherapy notes. These notes are for my own use and are designed to assist me in providing you with the best treatment. While the contents of Psychotherapy Notes vary from client to client, they can include the contents of our conservations, my analysis of those conversations, and how they impact on your therapy. They also contain particularly sensitive information that you may reveal to me that is not required to be included in your clinical record. These psychotherapy notes are kept separate from your clinical record. While insurance companies can request and receive a copy of your clinical record, they cannot receive a copy of your psychotherapy notes without your signed, written authorization. Insurance companies cannot require your authorization as a condition of coverage nor penalize you in any way for your refusal. You may examine and/or receive a copy of your psychotherapy notes unless I determine that knowledge of the health care information would be injurious to your health. Patient Rights HIPAA provides you with expanded rights with regard to clinical records and disclosures of protected health information. These include requesting that I amend your record; requesting restrictions on what information from your clinical record is disclosed; requesting an accounting of disclosures; determining where protected information disclosures are sent; having any complaints you make about my policies recorded in your records; and the right to a paper copy of this agreement, my policies and procedures, and the attached HIPAA notice form. Minors & Parents Parents of clients 16 years of age who are not emancipated may be allowed by law to examine their child’s records. While privacy in psychotherapy is very important, particularly with teenager, parental involvement is also essential to successful treatment. Therefore, it is my policy when treating 16- to 18-year-olds to request that they agree to my sharing occasional general information about the progress of treatment with his/her parents. Unless I feel discussing disclosure prior to parental notification is not realistic, such as when the child is in danger or is a danger to someone else, I will discuss with the child, what I think is in their best interest to discuss with the parents and preferably both the child and I will talk with the parents together.

Obligation to Maintain Confidentiality The Executive acknowledges that the continued success of the Company depends upon the use and protection of a large body of confidential and proprietary information, including confidential and proprietary information now existing or to be developed in the future. “Confidential Information” will be defined as all information of any sort (whether merely remembered or embodied in a tangible or intangible form) that is (i) related to the Company’s prior, current or potential business and (ii) not generally or publicly known. Therefore, the Executive agrees not to disclose or use for the Executive’s own account any of such Confidential Information, except as reasonably necessary for the performance of the Executive’s duties as an employee or director of the Company, without prior written consent of the Board, unless and to the extent that any Confidential Information (i) becomes generally known to and available for use by the public other than as a result of the Executive’s improper acts or omissions to act or (ii) is required to be disclosed pursuant to any applicable law, regulatory action or court order; provided, however, that the Executive must give the Company prompt written notice of any such legal requirement, disclose no more information than is so required, and cooperate fully with all efforts by the Company (at the Company’s sole expense) to obtain a protective order or similar confidentiality treatment for such information. Upon the termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company, the Executive agrees to deliver to the Company, upon request, all memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports and other documents (including copies thereof and electronic media) relating to the business of the Company (including, without limitation, all Confidential Information) that the Executive may then possess or have under the Executive’s control, other than such documents as are generally or publicly known (provided, that such documents are not known as a result of the Executive’s breach or actions in violation of this Agreement); and at any time thereafter, if any such materials are brought to the Executive’s attention or the Executive discovers them in the Executive’s possession, the Executive shall deliver such materials to the Company immediately upon such notice or discovery. The provisions of this Section 10.2(a) shall specifically survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement and the termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company.
