10.3. Severability and Interpretation. If a court of competent jurisdiction holds any provision of these Terms to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be limited to the minimum extent necessary so that these Terms will otherwise remain in effect.

10.4. Affiliate Usage. You may grant Your Affiliates access to and use of the Service under Your account; provided, that You ensure such Affiliates are aware of, and You are responsible for their compliance with, the Terms. Actions taken or omissions made by Your Affiliates in connection with their access or use of the Service are subject to the Terms and deemed as if taken or made by You (for instance, in providing Input, Customer Data, or other Confidential Information, along with all applicable rights and licenses granted under the Terms). Any claims Your Affiliates may have in connection with the Terms or the Service shall be made exclusively by You on behalf of Your Affiliates and shall be subject to the limitations set forth in these Terms, including Section 9 (Limitations on Liability), all of which apply in the aggregate across You and Your Affiliates. The parties agree that a person who is not a party to these Terms, including Your Affiliates, shall have no right to enforce any provision of the Terms against Harvey directly.

10.5. Open Source Software. We warrant that we will not use any software in the Service that would cause Your software to become subject to an open source license that would require, as a condition of use, Your software to be disclosed or distributed in source code form or would give others the right to modify Your software.

10.6. Confidentiality. Each party (as the “Receiving Party”) will use the same degree of care that it uses to protect the confidentiality of its own confidential information of like kind (but not less than reasonable care) to: (i) not use any Confidential Information of the other party (the “Disclosing Party”) for any purpose outside the scope of these Terms, and (ii) except as otherwise authorized by the Disclosing Party in writing, limit access to Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to those of its and its Affiliates’ employees and contractors who need that access for purposes consistent with these Terms and who are bound by confidentiality obligations to the Receiving Party containing protections not materially less protective than this section. If the Receiving Party is required by applicable law or court order to disclose Confidential Information, then the Receiving Party will, to the extent legally permitted, provide the Disclosing Party with advance written notification and cooperate in any effort to obtain confidential treatment of the Confidential Information. The Receiving Party acknowledges that disclosure of Confidential Information would cause substantial harm for which damages alone would not be a sufficient remedy, and therefore that upon any such disclosure by the Receiving Party, the Disclosing Party will be entitled to seek appropriate equitable relief in addition to whatever other remedies it might have at law.

10.7. Usage Data. Harvey may collect and use Usage Data to develop, improve, support, and operate the Service. Harvey may not share Usage Data that includes Your Confidential Information with a third party (for example, auditors) except (i) in accordance with Section 10.6 (Confidentiality) of this Agreement, or (ii) to the extent the Usage Data is aggregated and anonymized such that You cannot be identified.
