1. Definition of Confidential Information

For purposes of this Agreement, "Confidential Information" refers to any data, information, or materials, whether tangible or intangible, disclosed by the Disclosing Party to the Receiving Party, that is not generally known to the public and that is treated as confidential by the Disclosing Party. This includes, but is not limited to:

• Personal information about children in the care of the Receiving Party, including names, ages, health details (allergies, medical conditions), schedules, routines, educational progress, and social behavior.

• Private family details, such as the family’s residence, daily activities, security arrangements, financial information, and any personal preferences or lifestyle choices shared by the family.

• Health and safety information, including any special care instructions, emergency contacts, or protocols to follow in case of illness or injury.

• Discussions regarding family members not necessarily limited to those under the Receiving Party's care (e.g., extended family members, friends, or personal associates of the family).

• Work-related information that the Disclosing Party may share with the Receiving Party, including household work schedules, work-related travel, or personal matters that are not to be shared or disclosed to third parties.

2. Obligations of the Receiving Party

The Receiving Party agrees to the following conditions in relation to the Confidential Information:

• Non-disclosure: The Receiving Party shall not disclose, distribute, or communicate, in any manner, any Confidential Information to any third party, unless explicitly authorized in writing by the Disclosing Party.

• Use of Confidential Information: The Receiving Party shall only use the Confidential Information to perform the duties outlined in the babysitting arrangement. The Confidential Information shall not be used for personal gain or for any other purpose beyond the scope of providing care to the children and fulfilling the obligations of the babysitting services.

• Protection of Confidential Information: The Receiving Party shall take all reasonable measures to protect the confidentiality of the information and prevent any unauthorized use or disclosure. This includes keeping any written or electronic records secure, ensuring that no unauthorized persons have access to confidential materials, and ensuring that verbal communications involving confidential matters are conducted in private.

• Consultation: If the Receiving Party is uncertain about whether certain information can be disclosed to a third party, the Receiving Party agrees to consult with the Disclosing Party before such disclosure occurs.

3. Exclusions from Confidential Information

The confidentiality obligations set forth in this Agreement shall not apply to any information that:

• Public Information: Is or becomes generally available to the public through no act or fault of the Receiving Party, or becomes available from a source other than the Disclosing Party, provided that such source is not in breach of any confidentiality obligations to the Disclosing Party.

• Prior Knowledge: Was already in the possession of the Receiving Party prior to the disclosure by the Disclosing Party, and the Receiving Party can prove this with documentation or other evidence.

• Third-Party Disclosure: Is disclosed to the Receiving Party by a third party without any breach of confidentiality or any obligation to the Disclosing Party.

• Independent Development: Is independently developed by the Receiving Party without reference to or reliance upon the Confidential Information.

• Compelled Disclosure: Is required to be disclosed by law, subpoena, or court order, provided that the Receiving Party immediately notifies the Disclosing Party of the requirement and cooperates with the Disclosing Party to limit the scope of the disclosure.

4. Term of Confidentiality

The obligations under this Agreement shall remain in effect for a period of two [2] years from the date of disclosure of the Confidential Information. Notwithstanding the termination of the Agreement or the cessation of the babysitting services, the obligations of confidentiality shall continue until such time as the Confidential Information becomes publicly available through no fault of the Receiving Party, or until the Disclosing Party expressly releases the Receiving Party from their obligations.

5. Return or Destruction of Confidential Information

Upon the termination of the babysitting arrangement, or upon the request of the Disclosing Party, the Receiving Party agrees to immediately return all physical copies of the Confidential Information (including, but not limited to, documents, recordings, and files) or destroy such materials in a manner that ensures they are unrecoverable. If requested, the Receiving Party will provide written certification of the destruction of all Confidential Information.

6. No License or Ownership

Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as granting the Receiving Party any rights, title, or interest in the Confidential Information. All Confidential Information remains the property of the Disclosing Party. The Receiving Party shall not, directly or indirectly, use the Confidential Information for any purpose other than for providing babysitting services.

7. No Obligation to Hire

This Agreement does not obligate the Disclosing Party to hire or continue to employ the Receiving Party in any capacity, nor does it obligate the Receiving Party to accept or continue any babysitting engagements beyond the terms agreed upon. Either party may terminate the babysitting arrangement at any time, subject to any other terms outlined in a separate agreement.

8. Indemnification

The Receiving Party agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Disclosing Party against any damages, losses, or expenses (including attorneys' fees) arising out of any breach of this Agreement by the Receiving Party. This includes any costs related to the unauthorized disclosure of Confidential Information or any misuse of the Confidential Information.

11. Entire Agreement

No other document, agreement, or communication shall be deemed part of this Agreement unless explicitly referenced herein.

12. Severability

If any provision of this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. The invalidity of any particular provision will not affect the enforceability of the remainder of the Agreement.
