CONFIDENTIALITY
IN CONNECTION WITH SERVICES provided to the City of Fort Collins (the “City”) pursuant to
this Agreement (the “Agreement”), the Service Provider hereby acknowledges that it has been
informed that the City has established policies and procedures with regard to the handling of
confidential information and other sensitive materials.
In consideration of access to certain information, data and material (hereinafter individually and
collectively, regardless of nature, referred to as “information”) that are the property of and/or relate
to the City or its employees, customers or suppliers, which access is related to the performance
of services that the Service Provider has agreed to perf orm, the Service Provider hereby
acknowledges and agrees as follows:
That information that has or will come into its possession or knowledge in connection with the
performance of services for the City may be confidential and/or proprietary. The Service Provider
agrees to treat as confidential (a) all information that is owned by the City, or that relates to the
business of the City, or that is used by the City in carrying on business, and (b) all information
that is proprietary to a third party (including but not limited to customers and suppliers of the City).
The Service Provider shall not disclose any such information to any person not having a legitimate
need-to-know for purposes authorized by the City. Further, the Service Provider shall not use
such information to obtain any economic or other benefit for itself, or any third party, except as
specifically authorized by the City.
The foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, the Service Provider understands that it shall have
no obligation under this Agreement with respect to information and material that (a) becomes
generally known to the public by publication or some means other than a breach of duty of this
Agreement, or (b) is required by law, regulation or court order to be disclosed, provided that the
request for such disclosure is proper and the disclosure does not exceed that which is required.
In the event of any disclosure under (b) above, the Service Provider shall furnish a copy of this
Agreement to anyone to whom it is required to make such disclosure and shall promptly advise
the City in writing of each such disclosure.
In the event that the Service Provider ceases to perform services for the City, or the City so
requests for any reason, the Service Provider shall promptly return to the City any and all
information described hereinabove, including all copies, notes and/or summaries (handwritten or
mechanically produced) thereof, in its possession or control or as to which it otherwise has
access.
The Service Provider understands and agrees that the City’s remedies at law for a breach of the
Service Provider’s obligations under this Confidentiality Agreement may be inadequate and that
the City shall, in the event of any such breach, be entitled to seek equitable relief (including without
limitation preliminary and permanent injunctive relief and specific performance) in addition to all
other remedies provided hereunder or available at law.
