Tiny Research Program Agreement
Welcome to the Tiny Research Program (the âProgramâ)! To participate, weâll need you to agree to a special set of terms, the Tiny Research Program Agreement (âAgreementâ). This Agreement is a legal agreement between you (âyouâ, âyourâ) and Ephox Corporation dba Tiny Technologies, Inc. (âTinyâ, âweâ, or âusâ). Be sure to read this Agreement carefully â you can only be a Program participant if you accept all the terms of this Agreement. By participating in the Program in any way â for example, by accessing information about Tiny products or services that arenât yet available to the general public â youâre agreeing to be bound by all the terms of this Agreement.
1. Your Feedback
Weâre always trying to improve our products and services, and your feedback as a Program participant will help us do that. If you choose to give us any ideas, know-how, algorithms, code contributions, suggestions, enhancement requests, recommendations or any other feedback for our products or services through the Program (collectively, âFeedbackâ) you grant Tiny a royalty-free, fully paid-up, worldwide, transferable, sub-licensable, irrevocable and perpetual license to implement, use, modify, commercially exploit and/or incorporate the Feedback into our products, services, and documentation.
2. Confidentiality
Tiny may provide you with access to special information that isnât available to others for the purpose of providing feedback to us through the Program (the âPurposeâ). Due to the sensitive nature of this information, itâs important for us to make sure that you keep that information secret.
You agree that any non-public information we share with you or that you may have access to as a Program participant will be considered Tinyâs confidential information (collectively, âConfidential Informationâ), regardless of whether it is marked or identified as such. You agree to only use such Confidential Information for the Purpose stated above, and not for any other purpose. You should use the same degree of care as you would with your confidential information but no less than reasonable precautions to prevent any unauthorized use, disclosure, publication, or dissemination of our Confidential Information. You promise not to disclose, publish, or disseminate any Confidential Information to any third party.
You understand that unauthorized disclosure or use of our Confidential Information could cause us irreparable harm, and significant injury that may be difficult for us to quantify. Accordingly, you agree that weâll have the right to seek immediate injunctive relief to make sure you comply with this Agreement, in addition to any other rights and remedies we may have. If you are required by law, regulation or a valid binding order of a court of competent jurisdiction to disclose our Confidential Information, you may do so, but only if you notify us before you do, and do your best to limit such disclosure and to seek confidential, protective treatment of such information.
The obligations in this Section 2 wonât apply to information that you can prove: (i) was generally available to the public before we disclosed it to you; (ii) became generally available to the public after we disclosed it to you, through no action or inaction on your part, or on the part of your employees or contractors; (iii) you knew about before we disclosed it to you; (iv) was disclosed to you by a third party, who didnât have any confidentiality obligations with respect to it; (v) you independently developed without breach of any confidentiality obligation to us or any third party; or (vi) we gave you permission to disclose in writing signed by Tiny.
