(i) The contracting officer will make written inquiry to the contractor affording the contractor 60 days from re-ceipt of the inquiry to provide written justification to substantiate the propriety of the markings;

(ii) If the contractor fails to respond or fails to provide written justification to substantiate the propriety of the markings within the 60-day period (or a longer time approved in writing by the contracting officer for good cause shown), the judiciary shall have the right to cancel or ignore the markings at any time after said period and the data will no longer be made subject to any disclosure prohibitions.

(iii) If the contractor provides written justification to substantiate the propriety of the markings within the period set in paragraph (e)(1)(i) of this clause, the contracting officer shall consider such written justification and de-termine whether or not the markings are to be cancelled or ignored. If the contracting officer determines that the markings are authorized, the contractor shall be so notified in writing. If the contracting officer determines, with concurrence of the judiciary Procurement Executive, that the markings are not authorized, the contracting of-ficer will furnish the contractor a written determination, which determination will become the final agency de-cision regarding the appropriateness of the markings unless the contractor files suit in a court of competent jur-isdiction within 90 days of receipt of the contracting officer's decision. The judiciary will continue to abide by the markings under this paragraph (e)(1)(iii) until final resolution of the matter either by the contracting officer's determination becoming final (in which instance the judiciary will thereafter have the right to cancel or ignore the markings at any time and the data will no longer be made subject to any disclosure prohibitions), or by final disposition of the matter by court decision if suit is filed.

(2) Except to the extent the judiciary's action occurs as the result of final disposition of the matter by a court of competent jurisdiction, the contractor is not precluded by paragraph (e) of the clause from bringing a claim, in accordance with the Disputes clause of this contract, that may arise as the result of the judiciary removing or ig-noring authorized markings on data delivered under this contract.

(f) Omitted or Incorrect Markings

(1) Data delivered to the judiciary without any restrictive markings shall be deemed to have been furnished with unlimited rights. The judiciary is not liable for the disclosure, use, or reproduction of such data.

(2) If the unmarked data has not been disclosed without restriction outside the judiciary, the contractor may re-quest, within 6 months (or a longer time approved by the contracting officer in writing for good cause shown) after delivery of the data, permission to have authorized notices placed on the data at the contractor's expense.

The contracting officer may agree to do so if the contractor:

(i) Identifies the data to which the omitted notice is to be applied;

(ii) Demonstrates that the omission of the notice was inadvertent;

(iii) Establishes that the proposed notice is authorized; and

(iv) Acknowledges that the judiciary has no liability for the disclosure, use, or reproduction of any data made prior to the addition of the notice or resulting from the omission of the notice.

(3) If the data has been marked with an incorrect notice, the contracting officer may --

(i) Permit correction at the contractor's expense if the contractor identifies the data and demonstrates that the correct notice is authorized, or

(ii) Correct any incorrect notices.

(g) Protection of Limited Rights Data and Restricted Computer Software

(1) The contractor may withold from delivery qualifying limited rights data or restricted computer software that are not data identified in paragraphs (b)(1)(i), (ii), and (iii) of this clause. As a condition to this withholding, the contractor shall --

(i) Identify the data being withheld; and

(ii) Furnish form, fit, and function data instead.

(2) Limited rights data that are formatted as a computer database for delivery to the judiciary shall be treated as limited rights data and not restricted computer software.

(h) Subcontracting. The contractor shall obtain from its subcontractors all data and rights therein necessary to fulfill the contractor's obligations to the judiciary under this contract. If a subcontractor refuses to accept terms affording the judiciary those rights, the contractor shall promptly notify the contracting officer of the refusal and shall not proceed with subcontract award without authorization in writing from the contracting officer.

(i) Relationship to Patents or Other Rights. Nothing contained in this clause shall imply a license to the judi-ciary under any patent or be construed as affecting the scope of any license or other right otherwise granted to the judiciary.

The COR will instruct the contractor as to how to return the FAC. Upon expiration of this contract, the COR will instruct the contractor as to how to return all judiciary-is-sued FACs not previously returned.

This provision will not be construed as limiting the contractor's ability to refer to the judiciary as one of its customers when providing past performance information as part of a proposal submission, as opposed to general public marketing.

(b) No public release of information pertaining to this contract will be made without prior judiciary written ap-proval, as appropriate, and then only with written approval of the contracting officer.

(END)

7-35 Disclosure or Use of Information APR 2013

(a) Judiciary information made available to the contractor for the performance or administration of this contract shall be used only for those purposes and shall not be used in any other way without the written agreement of the contracting officer. This clause takes precedence over and is an explicit limitation to the rights enumerated in section (d)(2) of Clause 6-60, "Rights in Data - General."

(b) To the extent the information is otherwise publicly available, it is public information and is not restricted by operation of this clause. However, if public information is provided to the contractor for use in performance or administration of this contract in a media, format, or otherwise in a manner in which it is not available the pub-lic, such information may not be used for any other purpose by the contractor except with the written permis-sion of the contracting officer. If the contractor is uncertain about the availability or proposed use of informa-tion provided for the performance or administration of this contract, the contractor shall consult with the con-tracting officer regarding use of that information for other purposes.

(c) The contractor agrees to assume responsibility for protecting the confidentiality of judiciary records which are not public information. Such information may include, but is not limited to, all employee data and any writ-ten and oral information of a personal nature. Such information is to be safeguarded to ensure that it is not im-properly disclosed. Each officer or employee of the contractor to whom information may be made available or disclosed shall be notified in writing by the contractor that such information may be disclosed only for a pur-pose and to the extent authorized herein, and that further disclosure of any such information for a purpose or to an extent not so authorized may subject the person(s) responsible to criminal sanctions imposed by 18 U.S.C. §

641. That section provides, in pertinent part, that whoever without authority, sells, conveys, or disposes of any record of the United States or whoever receives the same with intent to convert it to their use or gain, knowing it to have been converted, will be guilty of a crime punishable by a fine up to $10,000, or imprisoned up to ten years, or both. The contractor shall obtain written acknowledgment from each officer and employee to whom information is made available, that they are aware of the above penalties associated with unauthorized disclos-ure. Such acknowledgments are subject to the review of the contracting officer.

(d) Performance of this contract may require the contractor to access and use data and information, proprietary to the judiciary or to a judiciary contractor, which is of such a nature that its dissemination or use, other than in performance of this contract, would be adverse to the interests of the judiciary and/or others.

(e) Contractor and/or contractor personnel shall not divulge or release data or information developed or ob-tained in performance of this contract until made public by the judiciary, except as authorized by the contracting officer. The contractor shall not use, disclose, or reproduce proprietary data which bears a restrictive legend, other than as required in the performance of this contract. Nothing herein will preclude the use of any data inde-pendently acquired by the contractor without such limitations or prohibit an agreement at no cost to the judi-ciary between the contractor and the data owner which provides for greater rights to the contractor.

(f) The judiciary and contractor agree that neither expects the performance under this contract to involve report-ing or handling of classified information or materials. Either party shall notify the other promptly in writing if

USCA19Q0030 - Page 16 of 23 the expectation of that party changes, and shall include in the notice reasons therefore. If there are sealed re-cords, in camera proceedings or grand jury matters, the contractor shall consult with the contracting officer as to the proper safeguarding, security, and secrecy of the original notes and transcript orders.

(g) The contracting officer will advise the contractor whenever the judiciary places a service order which will require classified information or materials. The contractor will have the right to decline to provide services, in which event such services shall be outside the scope of this contract.

(h) The contractor shall hold inviolate and in strictest confidence any and all information of an official nature not for inclusion in the document, any information which the presiding judicial official designates as "off the re-cord" and all classified information and material.

(i) The contractor shall classify, safeguard, and otherwise act with respect to all classified information and ma-terial in accordance with applicable law and requirements of the contracting officer. The contractor shall not permit any individual to have or gain access to the classified information or material without written permission of the contracting officer, except as access may be necessary for authorized employees of the contractor to per-form services under this contract.
