County hereby delegates to Contractor any and all responsibility for the safety of Contractor’s Workforce, which shall include inspection of property to identify potential hazards.

Retention by Contractor of any Workforce member shall be at Contractor’s sole cost and expense, and County shall have no obligation to pay Contractor’s Workforce to support any such person’s or entity’s claim against the Contractor; or to defend Contractor against any such claim.

In the event any subcontractor or consultant is utilized by Contractor for any portion of the project, Contractor retains the prime responsibility for carrying out all the terms of this Agreement, including the responsibility for performance and ensuring the availability and retention of records of subcontractors and consultants in accordance with this Agreement.

DOCUMENTS AND RECORDS

3.1 Ownership, Publication, Reproduction, and Use of Material. All reports, studies, information, data, statistics, forms, designs, plans, procedures, systems, and any other material or properties produced under this Agreement shall be the sole and exclusive property of County. No such materials or properties produced in whole or in part under this Agreement shall be subject to private use, copyright, or patent right by Contractor in the United States or in any other country without the express written consent of County. County shall have unrestricted authority to publish, disclose, distribute and otherwise use, copyright or patent, in whole or in part, any such reports, studies, data, statistics, forms or other materials or properties produced under this Agreement.

3.2 Confidentiality. Contractor agrees to maintain the confidentiality of, and to take industry appropriate as well as all legally required measures to prevent the unlawful disclosure of, any information that is legally required to be kept confidential.

Except as otherwise allowed by local, State, or federal law or regulation, Contractor agrees to only disclose confidential records where the holder of the privilege, whether the County, or a third party, provides written permission authorizing the disclosure. Further, any reports, records, data, or other information given to or prepared or assembled by Contractor under this Agreement that the County requests to be kept confidential shall not be made available to any individual or organization by the Contractor without the prior written approval of the County except as may be required by law. Contractor shall not disclose to any individual or organization any reports, records, data, or other information received, prepared, or assembled by Contractor under this Agreement

3.3 Public Records Act. The California Public Records Act (“CPRA”) requires County to disclose “public records” in its actual or constructive possession unless a statutory exemption applies. This generally includes contracts and related documents. If County receives a CPRA request for records relating to the Agreement, County may, at its sole discretion, either determine its response to the request without notifying Contractor or notify Contractor of the request. If County determines its response to the request without notifying Contractor, Contractor shall hold County harmless for such determination. If County notifies Contractor of the request, Contractor may request that County withhold or redact records responsive to the request by submitting to County a written request within five (5) business days after receipt of the County’s notice. Contractor’s request must identify specific records to be withheld or redacted and applicable exemptions. Upon timely receipt of Contractor’s request, County will review the request and at its sole discretion withhold and/or redact the records identified by Contractor.

Contractor shall hold County harmless for County’s decision whether to withhold and/or redact pursuant to Contractor’s written request. Contractor further agrees that its defense and indemnification obligations set forth in section 17.1 of this Agreement extend to any Claim (as defined in section 17.1) against the County Parties (as defined in section 17.1) arising out of County’s withholding and/or redacting of records pursuant to Contractor’s request. Nothing in this section shall preclude Contractor from bringing a “reverse CPRA action” to prevent disclosure of records. Nothing in this section shall prevent the County or its agents or any other governmental entity from accessing any records for the purpose of audits or program reviews if that access is legally permissible under the applicable local, State, or federal laws or regulations.

Similarly, County or its agent or designee may take possession of the record(s) where legally authorized to do so.

3.4 Custody of Records. Contractor shall deliver to County or its designee, at County’s request, all documentation and data related to Contractor’s work under this Agreement, including, but not limited to, County data and client files held by

Contractor, at no charge to County. County, at its option, may take custody of Contractor’s client records upon Agreement termination, expiration, or at such other time as County may deem necessary. County agrees that such custody will conform to applicable confidentiality provisions of State and federal law and that retained records shall be available to Contractor for examination and inspection in accordance with applicable law. Contractor shall destroy records not turned over to County in accordance with applicable retention requirements and this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Contractor may retain one (1) copy of the documentation and data for archival purposes or warranty support, and Contractor may maintain records that it is legally required to maintain.
