"Confidential Information” is any information that is proprietary or confidential to Discloser or its Affiliates, as defined in paragraph 10 hereof, and disclosed to the Recipient by or on behalf of Discloser, including, without limitation, specifications, design plans, drawings, software, data, prototypes, or other business and/or technical information, without regard to whether such Confidential Information is disclosed in oral, written, electronic or visual form.
Confidential Information provided in written, electronic or visual form shall be plainly marked “Confidential” or “Proprietary” or with language of similar meaning, or otherwise disclosed under circumstances which reasonably suggest to the Recipient the confidential nature of the Information.
Information provided orally or in any other non-tangible form shall also be deemed Confidential Information if identified as being confidential or proprietary at the time of disclosure and confirmed in writing to be so by the Discloser to the Recipient at the time of disclosure or within thirty (30) days of disclosure, but failure to provide such written confirmation shall not affect the nature of the Confidential Information disclosed if such Confidential Information was identified as confidential or proprietary when disclosed orally or in any other non-tangible form. Such writing shall specify the date, time, place, persons involved and substance of Confidential Information so disclosed.
4. Use of Confidential Information:

The term third party shall be broadly interpreted to include, without limitation, any corporation, company, partnership and individual.
4.3 The Recipient agrees that the Confidential Information and the Transaction Information will not be used by the Recipient or its Representatives in any way detrimental to the Discloser, will be kept confidential by the Recipient and its Representatives and will not, except as hereinafter provided, without the prior written consent of the Discloser be used by the Recipient or its Representatives in any manner whatsoever, in whole or in part.
5. Restrictions: The Recipient shall (a) hold Confidential Information and Transaction Information in confidence and only provide access to such information to those Representatives or contractors who (i) have a need to know and (ii) have entered into a confidentiality agreement with the Recipient that is reasonably calculated to protect the confidential or proprietary nature of the Confidential Information and the Transaction Information and prohibit its unauthorized disclosure, and (b) not disclose any Confidential Information or Transaction Information to any third party without prior written approval of Discloser.

8. Standard of Care/ Indemnity.
