About this file

This document is a Disclosure Exemption Affidavit form required by the State of Oregon for RFP S-10000-00013061, Family Search and Engagement services. The affidavit serves as a template that proposers must complete and submit with their proposals to identify any information they believe qualifies for exemption from public disclosure under Oregon's Public Records Law. The form requires an authorized representative of the proposing organization to swear under oath that they have reviewed their proposal and designated specific information as exempt from disclosure, with the exemption details to be listed in Exhibit A. Proposers must certify their familiarity with Oregon Revised Statutes sections 192.311 through 192.478 and the Uniform Trade Secrets Act as adopted in Oregon (ORS 646.461 through 646.475) to support their exemption claims.

The affidavit specifies two primary categories under which proposers may claim exemption: information meeting the definition of "Trade Secrets" under Oregon law, including formulas, plans, patterns, processes, production data, or compilations of information known only to certain individuals within the organization and providing competitive advantage; and information deriving independent economic value from not being generally known to the public, provided the proposer has taken reasonable measures to maintain its secrecy. The form requires notarization and must be accompanied by Exhibit A, which lists the specific exempt information and the corresponding statutory exemptions being claimed. The affidavit notes that final determination of exemption eligibility may depend on official or judicial determinations made in accordance with Oregon's Public Records Law.

ATTACHMENT B — DISCLOSURE EXEMPTION AFFIDAVIT

____________________ (Affiant), being first duly sworn under oath, and representing ___________________ (hereafter “Proposer”), hereby deposes and swears or affirms under penalty of perjury that:

1. I am an employee of the Proposer, I have knowledge of the Request for Proposals referenced herein, and I have full authority from the Proposer to submit this affidavit and accept the responsibilities stated herein.

2. I am aware that the Proposer has submitted a Proposal, dated on or about ____________________ (the “Proposal”), to the State of Oregon (State) in response to Request for Proposals S-10000- 00013061, and I am familiar with the contents of the RFP and Proposal.

3. I have read and am familiar with the provisions of Oregon’s Public Records Law, Oregon Revised Statutes (“ORS”) 192.311 through 192.478, and the Uniform Trade Secrets Act as adopted by the State of Oregon, which is set forth in ORS 646.461 through ORS 646.475. I understand that the Proposal is a public record held by a public body and is subject to disclosure under the Oregon Public Records Law unless specifically exempt from disclosure under that law.

4. I have reviewed the information contained in the Proposal. The Proposer believes the information listed in Exhibit A is exempt from public disclosure (collectively, the “Exempt Information”), which is incorporated herein by this reference. It is my opinion that the Exempt Information is exempt from disclosure under Oregon’s Public Records Law under the specifically designated sections as set forth in Exhibit A or constitutes “Trade Secrets” under either the Oregon Public Records Law or the Uniform Trade Secrets Act as adopted in Oregon because that information is either:

A. A formula, plan, pattern, process, tool, mechanism, compound, procedure, production data, or compilation of information that:

i. is not patented,

ii. is known only to certain individuals within the Proposer’s organization and that is used in a business the Proposer conducts,

iii. has actual or potential commercial value, and

iv. gives its user an opportunity to obtain a business advantage over competitors who do not know or use it.

or

B. Information, including a drawing, cost data, customer list, formula, pattern, compilation, program, device, method, technique or process that:

i. Derives independent economic value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to the public or to other persons who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use; and

ii. Is the subject of efforts by the Proposer that are reasonable under the circumstances to maintain its secrecy.

5. I understand that disclosure of the information referenced in Exhibit A may depend on official or judicial determinations made in accordance with the Public Records Law.
