Confidential Information shall not include (or shall cease to include) data or information that (i) is or becomes generally known to the public on or after the effective date of the first Order Form entered into between the parties, other than as a result of any act or omission of the Receiving Party; (ii) was rightfully known to the Receiving Party prior to its receipt from the Disclosing Party; (iii) is rightfully furnished to the Receiving Party by a third party without restriction as to use or disclosure; (iv) is independently developed by the Receiving Party without use of or reference to the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information; or (v) is disclosed with the prior written consent of the Disclosing Party.

The Receiving Party agrees that monetary damages alone are not a sufficient remedy in the event of Receiving Party’s breach of this Section 17, and therefore, in addition to any other rights and remedies available to Disclosing Party at law or in equity, Disclosing Party shall have the right to obtain immediate injunctive or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction without the necessity of posting a bond or other guarantee.
     
  18. General: This Agreement shall be governed by California law and controlling United States federal law, without regard to the choice or conflicts of law provisions of any jurisdiction.

Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, either party may seek immediate injunctive or other equitable relief in order to protect its confidential or proprietary interests in any court of competent jurisdiction. No text or information set forth on any other purchase order, check or other form or payment, preprinted form or document shall add to or vary the terms and conditions of this Agreement. If any provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, then such provision(s) shall be construed, as nearly as possible, to reflect the intentions of the invalid or unenforceable provision(s), with all other provisions remaining in full force and effect. No joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship exists between You and Us as a result of this Agreement or use of the Service. Our failure to enforce any right or provision in this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision unless acknowledged and agreed to by Us in writing. This Agreement comprises the entire agreement between You and Us and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous negotiations, discussions or agreements, whether written or oral, between the parties regarding the subject matter contained herein, and may only be modified in a writing signed by both parties.
