Capacity shall reasonably cooperate with the Subscriber in any investigation into the Data Breach, including providing any information reasonably requested by the Subscriber to meet any legal obligations under applicable law, to the extent such information is available to Capacity. Such notification shall not be construed as admission of fault by Capacity for causing said Data Breach. If Capacity becomes aware of any unauthorized access or disclosure of PII not resulting from Capacity’s breach of its obligations hereunder (such as, for example, a User granting unauthorized systems access to a third party), then Capacity will notify the Subscriber and the Parties will cooperate with each other, on a commercially reasonable basis, to support any remediation efforts, whether such efforts are led by Subscriber or Capacity.
5.6 Capacity Employee Background Checks and Training. Capacity conducts criminal background checks for all Capacity employees involved in providing the Services.

9. Confidentiality
9.1 Definition of Confidential Information. “Confidential Information” means all confidential and proprietary information of a Party (“Disclosing Party”) disclosed to the other Party (“Receiving Party”) that is designated as confidential or that reasonably should be understood to be confidential given the nature of the information or the circumstances of disclosure.

The Receiving Party shall be liable for any breach of confidentiality obligations by its representatives to which it discloses the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Receiving Party and its representatives shall not be obligated to destroy any Confidential Information that is in an archived computer system backup in accordance with the Receiving Party’s security, compliance, corporate governance, disaster recovery and/or document retention policies or to the extent relevant to demonstrate compliance with any legal, professional or contractual obligation or document retention policy.
9.3 Remedies. If the Receiving Party discloses or uses (or threatens to disclose or use) any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party in breach of the confidentiality protections hereunder, the Disclosing Party shall have the right, in addition to any other remedies available to it, to seek injunctive relief to enjoin such acts, it being specifically acknowledged by the Parties that any other available remedies are inadequate.
