Purpose.<\/strong> In order to <mark>___<\/mark>, the Parties must exchange\u00a0 information of a confidential nature (&#8220;Confidential Information&#8221; as defined in Article 2 below) and would\u00a0 like to ensure that it remains confidential. Each Party may, as the project progresses, provide technical or\u00a0 commercial information to the other Party and they may want this information to be treated as confidential\u00a0 under the terms and conditions set out below, OR <mark>___<\/mark> may have previously signed a\u00a0 contract for the provision of professional work so that <mark>___<\/mark> supports <mark>___<\/mark> in\u00a0 drafting <mark>___<\/mark> (hereinafter referred to as the &#8220;<strong>Project<\/strong>&#8220;).\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>2.&#8221;Confidential Information&#8221;.<\/strong> &#8220;Confidential Information&#8221; includes any information, and\/or documentation,\u00a0 and\/or material and\/or instrument and\/or research and development program provided by either Party, or\u00a0 furthermore acquired by one of the Parties, directly or indirectly, by any means (for example, paper copies or\u00a0 electronic form), clearly declared as &#8220;confidential&#8221;, &#8220;proprietary&#8221;, or similar phraseology that indicates the\u00a0 privileged and\/or confidential nature of the information. The confidential nature of the information may also\u00a0 regard studies and analyses prepared by one Party, on the basis of Confidential Information provided by the\u00a0 other Party. All oral information must be treated as confidential, as must any information regarding any third\u00a0 party. Information that does not qualify as Confidential Information includes information that: (I) was in the public domain prior to the transfer of the same information from one Party to the other or information that\u00a0 has become publicly available without violating this Confidentiality Agreement; (II) has become available\u00a0 after being published by one Party to the other for reasons not attributable to the receiving Party; (III) was available to the receiving Party prior to the communication, as can be demonstrated by the date of\u00a0 communication on previous documents; (IV) is legitimately obtained by one of the Parties from a third party\u00a0 who has no obligation of confidentiality; (V) was developed independently by the receiving Party without\u00a0 use or reference to information from the communicating Party, as can be demonstrated by documents and\u00a0 other evidence in possession of the receiving Party; or (VI) was delivered by one Party to a Judicial or\u00a0 Administrative Authority in compliance with laws or regulations, or as required by the same Judicial or Administrative Authority, in which case the receiving Party shall promptly notify the communicating Party,\u00a0 in writing, prior to such disclosure or, if this is not possible, immediately following the disclosure of the\u00a0 information, as well as the method of disclosure in such a way as to limit its dissemination as much as\u00a0 possible.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Non-use and non-disclosure.<\/strong> Each Party agrees not to use the Confidential Information for purposes\u00a0 other than those allowed in paragraph 1 above, either directly and\/or indirectly. Each Party agrees to not\u00a0 disclose Confidential Information to third parties or employees and\/or different types of third party co workers, except when these third parties or their employees and\/or different types of third party co-workers\u00a0 are directly involved in the analysis of the project or as consultants to a Party. If it is mandatory that a third\u00a0 party be involved in carrying out any of the activities listed above in paragraph 1, the Party requesting this\u00a0 involvement must require these third parties to sign a confidentiality agreement with content that reflects the\u00a0 obligations of and is similar to this Confidentiality Agreement. Employees and\/or co-workers of either Party\u00a0and\/or employees and\/or co-workers of audit companies responsible for auditing financial statements of\u00a0 either Party are not considered third parties. The receiving Party has the right to disclose Confidential\u00a0 Information to its consultants. If there is unlawful disclosure of Confidential Information by these\u00a0 consultants, or by members of the governing bodies of each of the Parties, the liability for damages will be\u00a0 the responsibility of the receiving Party.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Maintaining Confidentiality.<\/strong> Each Party will take reasonable measures to protect the confidentiality of\u00a0 and prevent the dissemination of Confidential Information received under the terms of this Confidentiality Agreement. When handling Confidential Information received from the other Party, each Party should use\u00a0 the same means they use for their own confidential documents and ensure that all persons who have access to\u00a0 the Confidential Information are bound to confidentiality. Each Party must assess, through normal standards\u00a0 of reason and diligence, which must be measured based on the nature and type of information processed\u00a0 and\/or received, the methods used for the protection of the confidentiality of restricted and sensitive\u00a0 information. If this assessment reveals that the methods used for the protection of Confidential Information\u00a0 are inadequate for the nature and type of information received and processed, the Party will be required to\u00a0 take measures that, according to normal standards of reason and diligence, are sufficient to safeguard the\u00a0 confidentiality of the type of information received. Failure to do so will result in liability for all damages caused to the other Party, as a result of the disclosure of Confidential Information received by the other\u00a0 Party.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. Limitations.<\/strong> Neither obligation nor commitment nor right, even of an additional pre-contractual nature,\u00a0 with respect to what is contained in this Confidentiality Agreement arises on either Party, as a result of signing this Confidentiality Agreement, with respect to agreements for the completion of the Project. Where\u00a0 each Party has the right to unilaterally terminate the analysis of the Project at their own discretion, the Parties\u00a0 continue to be required to respect the terms and conditions of this Confidentiality Agreement with respect to\u00a0 any Confidential Information acquired during execution of the tasks described in paragraph 1 above for a\u00a0 period equal to <mark>___<\/mark>, effective from the date of signing of this Confidentiality Agreement. No additional\u00a0 obligation may arise from this Confidentiality Agreement for the Parties as a result of the termination of\u00a0 assignments related to the Project.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>6. Invalidity.<\/strong> The declaration of nullity or invalidity of one or more provisions contained in this\u00a0 Confidentiality Agreement does not determine the invalidity or nullity of the Confidentiality Agreement as a\u00a0 whole or of the remaining provisions contained herein, which must be interpreted in such a way as to yield\u00a0 economic and substantial effects similar as much as possible to those arising from the original text of the\u00a0 Confidentiality Agreement.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>7. Return of materials.<\/strong> All Confidential Information communicated by one Party to the other, in any\u00a0 material form, and all copies owned by the other Party, remain property of the communicating Party and\u00a0 must be returned or destroyed promptly upon written request from the communicating Party. Nevertheless,\u00a0 the obligation to preserve the confidentiality of the content as stated in the last part of paragraph 5 above\u00a0 remains binding.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>8. Amendments.<\/strong> Any amendment to this Confidentiality Agreement must be made in writing and be\u00a0 approved by appropriate undersigning by both Parties.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>9. Term.<\/strong> The duration of this Confidentiality Agreement is of <mark>___<\/mark> months from the date of its\u00a0 undersigning by both Parties.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>10.

Privacy.<\/strong> The treatment of any personal and sensitive data included in this Confidentiality Agreement\u00a0 shall be in compliance with the Italian Legislative Decree no. 196 dated 30\/06\/2003, (the &#8220;Italian Code for\u00a0 the Protection of Personal Data&#8221;) and its subsequent amendments.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>12. Applicable Law and Jurisdiction.<\/strong> This Confidentiality Agreement has been written in compliance and\u00a0 must be interpreted in accordance with Italian law. The Judicial Court of Florence will preside over any\u00a0 dispute regarding this Confidentiality Agreement, including any disputes concerning its validity.
