- TERM
- The Non-Disclosure provisions of this Agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Company may also take down Contractor’s content(s) that violates Contractor’s confidentiality obligation.
- NOTICES
- In the event that the Contractor is required in a civil, criminal or regulatory proceeding to disclose any part of the Confidential Information, the Contractor will give to the Company prompt written notice of such request so the Company may seek an appropriate remedy or alternatively to waive the Contractor’s compliance with the provisions of this Agreement in regard to the request.
