7.8 The Customer is solely responsible for placing, securing and operating the Software and Services in a manner that is safe and complies with any relevant health and safety or other legislation.

8. Confidentiality and Intellectual Property

8.1 The Customer hereby acknowledges that the Software contains confidential information of Infomill or of third parties. The Customer undertakes to keep the Software confidential and shall not divulge the same to any third party without the prior written consent of Infomill.

8.2 Infomill and the Customer shall keep confidential the contents of this Agreement and all information of the other party designated as confidential and obtained under or in connection with this Agreement and shall not divulge the same to any third party without the prior written consent of the disclosing party.

8.3 Infomill and the Customer may divulge confidential information of the other party only to those employees, agents or subcontractors bound under equivalent conditions of confidence who are directly involved in the supply or use of the Software or the Services, and shall ensure that such persons are aware of and undertake to comply with these obligations of confidentiality.

8.4 The provisions of this clause shall not apply to any information which:

8.4.1 is or becomes public knowledge otherwise than through the default or negligence of the receiving party;

8.4.2 the receiving party can prove was in the possession of the receiving party without restriction before the date of receipt from the disclosing party;

8.4.3 is obtained from a third party who is lawfully authorised to disclose the same; and/or

8.4.4 and to the extent only that such information is required to be disclosed by law or a regulatory authority.

8.5 The Customer agrees that it will not at any time re-create or attempt to re-create the Software.

8.6 On termination of this Agreement for any reason Customer undertakes immediately to cease to use the Software and to delete, destroy or otherwise make permanently unusable the Software and all whole and partial copies of Software made by Customer or in the control of the Customer.
