Legal text regarding Intellectual Property Rights (the fine print)

The University of Kansas owns the copyrights, trademarks, and related intellectual property covered under this agreement (IP).  This agreement does not convey any exclusive rights, title or interest in or to IP to the User. The User shall not take any action that would limit or restrict access to the materials by other individuals or clients or otherwise adversely affect the proprietary nature of the IP.  IP includes, but is not limited to the following: Any existing and/or future developed reporting; any existing and/or future developed professional development materials; any existing and/or future developed technical documents and research reports; any existing and/or future developed curriculum, research, copyrighted materials developed or owned by University of Kansas.

During the course of working with KU, User will acquire and have access to confidential and/or proprietary information belonging to KU, including, but not limited to, trade secrets, technology, and intellectual property related to KU's Community Check Box Evaluation System, and the Center for Community Health and Development's evaluations, models, databases, and curriculum. The foregoing shall be collectively referred to as “Proprietary Information."​

User agrees to hold all Proprietary Information in strict confidence, and not disclose it to any third party except as required by law, including, without limitation, anyone without a need to know the Proprietary Information.  User agrees to only disclose Proprietary Information to anyone with a need to know such information that is aware of, understands, and agrees to the provisions of this agreement.  If User is required by law or similar process to disclose any Proprietary Information, then to the extent legally permitted, he/she will provide KU with prompt written notice of such request or requirement so that KU may seek an appropriate protective order at its own expense and/or waive compliance with this provision.  KU shall respond to such request, in writing, within five (5) working days of the request, by either authorizing the disclosure or advising of its election to seek a protective order. If KU fails to respond within the prescribed period, the disclosure will be deemed approved. If KU chooses to seek an appropriate protective order, User will refrain from disclosing such information (unless legally compelled to do so) until the request for a protective order is resolved, and will then comply with any validly-issued protective order.

User acknowledges that money damages would not provide an adequate remedy to KU if User breaches or threatens to breach this agreement.  Accordingly, in the event of any breach or threatened breach by User, KU shall, in addition to all other rights and remedies at law or in equity, be entitled to obtain equitable relief in the form of specific performance, temporary restraining order, temporary or permanent injunction or any other equitable remedy which may then be available from any court having equity jurisdiction, all without the need to post a bond or other security or to prove any amount of actual damage or that money damages will not provide an adequate remedy.

All Proprietary Information in tangible form shall be returned to KU promptly upon request, and User shall not thereafter retain any such Proprietary Information in any form.    

This agreement and all matters arising out of or related to the agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Kansas.  If any provision of this agreement is found to be unenforceable, the remainder shall be enforced as fully as possible, and the unenforceable provision shall be deemed modified to the limited extent required to permit its enforcement in a manner most closely representing the intention of the parties as expressed herein.
