(End of clause) PTO-04 Data Security

REPRODUCTION AND DISCLOSURE OF CONFIDENTIAL DATA

Reproduction or disclosure of confidential data provided by the USPTO, or to which the Contractor will have access to as a result of this contract, is prohibited. It is understood that throughout performance of this contract, the Contractor may have access to confiden-tial data which is the sole property of the USPTO, as well as access to proprietary data which is the sole property of other than the contracting parties. The Contractor hereby agrees to maintain the confidentiality of all such data to which access may be obtained throughout contract performance whether title thereto vests in the USPTO or otherwise. The Contractor hereby agrees not to disclose said data, any interpretation thereof or data derivative there from, to unauthorized parties in contravention of these provisions, without prior written approval of the Contracting Officer and any party in which title thereto is wholly vested. The Contractor agrees to imme-diately notify the Contracting Officer in writing in the event that the Contractor determines or has reason to suspect a breach of this re-quirement has occurred.

Upon completion of or termination of this contract, the Contractor shall return to the Government all GFD.

RIGHTS IN DATA

When using any FAR clause as prescribed in FAR Subpart 27.4, Rights in Data and Copyrights, that contains the definitions “unlimited rights” and “computer software,” the definitions shall be expanded to include the following:

SECRECY AND USE OF PATENT INFORMATION (IF APPLICABLE)

Work under this contract does not affect national security. However, patent applications are required by law (35 U.S.C. 122) to be kept in confidence. Information contained in any patent application file(s) is restricted to authorized Contractor personnel on a need-to-know basis.

The Contractor acquires no right or privilege to use or disclose any information contained in any patent application file (in any form whatsoever) except to perform the work under this contract. Furthermore, the Contractor shall not copyright or make any use or dis-closure whatsoever of any patent information contained in any application or related copy or data furnished to the Contractor by the Government, or obtained by the Contractor from the Government, except in performing the requirements of this contract. Security re-quirements of patent application file data maintained in a computer-accessible medium are an extension of the security requirements for the hard copy or of patent application folders. All processing, storage, or transmission of patent application file data by means of electronic communications systems is prohibited unless use of such systems is approved by the USPTO. All personnel having access to patent application files or data or information concerning the same, must take the following affirmation, signed in writing:

“I do swear and affirm that I will preserve the applications for patents in secrecy, that I will not divulge any information concerning the same to unauthorized persons while employed in work under this contract or at any time thereafter, and that I take this obligation freely, and without mental reservation or purpose of evasion.”

Each employee’s signed oath, or affirmation, shall be retained in the Contractor’s file, subject to inspection by authorized Government representatives.

The Contractor shall not refer to this or any other contract between itself and the United States Patent and Trademark Office in advert-isements, press releases, or other forms of endorsement in such a manner that states or implies the Federal Government sanctions, prefers, or considers the products and/or services provided by the Contractor superior to those of other vendors without the express written consent of the Contracting Officer.

During the life of this contract, the right of ingress and egress to and from the Government facility for Contractor personnel shall be made available only when and to the extent necessary to carry out contract requirements. The Government reserves the right to require Contractor personnel to sign in upon ingress, or sign out upon egress, to and from the Government facility. During all operations on Government premises, Contractor personnel shall comply with the rules and regulations governing the conduct of personnel and the operations of the facility. The Contractor is required to immediately notify the COR upon temporary or permanent termination of Con-tractor personnel with Government facility access when such access is no longer required.
