Confidential and Proprietary Information and Data.
For purposes of this agreement, “Confidential and Proprietary Information” shall include, but not be limited to, the EAP Cloud Services, including its functionality, performance, business purpose, specifications, documentation, and the like, test results obtained by you through use of the EAP Cloud Services, any material data relating to use of the EAP Cloud Services by you, including, but not limited to, and any and all information, either written or oral, relating to the EAP Cloud Services, including plans, business and financial information, and perhaps related software which is proprietary and confidential to Bentley or its licensors, which may, from timeto-time, be disclosed by Bentley to you during the term of this agreement. It is understood by both parties that ANY information provided by Bentley during the term to you relating to the EAP Cloud Services is Bentley’s Confidential and Proprietary Information.

The release of Confidential and Proprietary Information to you does not constitute a commercialization of the EAP Cloud Services, but rather is a release for testing purposes ONLY. You shall not disclose to any third party the terms of this agreement nor the results of any evaluation hereunder except with the written consent of Bentley. You shall, upon Bentley’s request, certify in writing as to the return or destruction of all such information. The parties shall use Confidential and Proprietary Information only for the purposes permitted under this agreement. You shall make no other use of the Confidential and Proprietary Information, in whole or in part, without the specific prior written consent of Bentley. Accordingly, you agree not to make any commercial use of the Confidential and Proprietary Information, and you shall not translate, copy, disassemble, reverse engineer, or decompile any EAL Cloud Services, nor shall you make copies or translations of any documentation. Furthermore, you will not make any pre-release reports or give pre-release interviews concerning the EAP Cloud Services or the Confidential and Proprietary Information without Bentley’s prior written consent.

You shall maintain Bentley’s Confidential and Proprietary Information in strict confidence, shall limit internal disclosure of Bentley’s Confidential and Proprietary Information to employees having a legitimate need to know, and shall exercise the same degree of care in protecting Bentley’s Confidential and Proprietary Information as you exercise in protecting your own confidential and proprietary information.

Any other related materials supplied by Bentley, including documentation, may not be reproduced in any manner by you. The original and all copies of Bentley’s Confidential and Proprietary Information shall remain the property of Bentley and shall be returned to Bentley upon demand.

Neither Bentley nor any of its employees will consider unsolicited ideas, including ideas for new advertising campaigns, new promotions, new products, or technologies, processes, materials, marketing plans, or new product names. The sole purpose of this policy is to avoid potential misunderstandings or disputes in the event that Bentley’s products or marketing strategies might seem similar to ideas or works you submitted. You agree not to send your unsolicited ideas or any original creative artwork, samples, demos, or other works to Bentley. All materials sent to Bentley despite the foregoing will become Bentley’s property and you agree that all intellectual property rights therein are transferred to Bentley.

YOU AGREE TO HOLD BENTLEY HARMLESS FROM, AND YOU AGREE NOT TO SUE BENTLEY FOR, ANY CLAIMS ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICES, THE SOFTWARE, RELATED DOCUMENTATION OR OTHER MATERIALS AND INFORMATION OBTAINED BY YOU THROUGH THE SERVICES.

IN NO EVENT SHALL BENTLEY’S TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL DAMAGES, LOSSES AND CAUSES OF ACTION, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE, EXCEED THE AMOUNT PAID BY YOU FOR USE OF THE SERVICES AND THE SOFTWARE. FOR PURPOSES OF THIS PARAGRAPH, BENTLEY AND BENTLEY’S LICENSORS ARE COLLECTIVELY REFERRED TO AS “BENTLEY.”

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Bentley and its officers, directors, employees, agents, affiliates, third party information providers, licensors, contractors and others involved in delivery of the Services from and against any and all liabilities, expenses, damages and costs, including reasonable attorney’s fees, arising from any violation by you of these Terms or your use of the Services, the Software or information obtained therefrom.

The Services, the Software and related documentation are “Commercial Items” consisting of “Commercial Computer Software” and “Commercial Computer Software Documentation” as such terms are defined in the Federal Acquisition Regulations (“FAR”) at 48 CFR 2.101, developed exclusively with private funds. Consistent with 48 CFR 12.212, and the comparable DFAR in the DoD FAR Supp. at 227.7202-1 through 227.7202-4, the Services and the Software are licensed to you only as Commercial Software and only with the rights and obligations granted to public users generally as set forth above in these Terms. Notwithstanding any other FAR, DFAR or other contractual provision into which these Terms may be incorporated, any government end user acquires the rights to use the Services, the Software and related documentation only as set forth in these Terms. The Services and the Software are accessed and acquired under the specific terms and conditions set forth herein. If any portion of the Services or the Software is deemed “non-commercial,” or the following FARs or DFARs are deemed to apply, the Services and the Software are licensed under the terms hereof and under the RESTRICTED RIGHTS set forth in 48 CFR 52.227-19 and DFAR 252.227-7014 (and the government’s use, duplication and disclosure rights are restricted as set forth therein).

These Terms and your use of the Services and the Software shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, USA, exclusive of its choice of law provisions. You hereby consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the courts located in and serving Chester County, Pennsylvania and the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. Any cause of action you may have with respect to the Services must be commenced within one (1) year after the claim or cause of action arises or such claim or cause of action is barred. These Terms create no third party beneficiary rights. Bentley’s failure to exercise any of its rights under or to enforce any provision of these Terms will not be deemed a waiver or forfeiture of such rights or ability to enforce such provision. The provisions of these Terms shall be deemed to be separable and the invalidity of any provision hereof shall not affect the validity of the remainder of these Terms. Neither a course of dealing or conduct between you and Bentley nor any trade practice will be deemed to modify these Terms. You may not assign any of your rights set forth in these Terms, and any such attempt is void, but Bentley may assign its rights to any of its affiliates or subsidiaries, or to any successor in interest of any business associated with the Services.

You acknowledge that, with respect to EAP Cloud Services:
