Non-Disclosure Agreement

Last Updated: April 16, 2019

This Non-Disclosure Agreement (“Agreement”) constitutes a contract regarding the treatment of non-public business information (“Confidential Information”) between UnityPay Global LLC (“UnityPay”) and any person or entity who exchanges Confidential Information with UnityPay (“you”) (each a “Party” and collectively the “Parties”). Either Party may disclose or receive Confidential Information under this Agreement (each a “Disclosing Party” or a “Receiving Party”). This Agreement governs the Parties’ obligations regarding Confidential Information, unless the Parties sign a separate non-disclosure agreement or a separate agreement regarding the Services that addresses such obligations, and is effective when the Parties begin to exchange such information (“Effective Date”). If the Parties sign a separate agreement regarding such obligations, the separate agreement will control.

The capitalized terms that appear in this Agreement have the same meanings as in UnityPay’s Terms of Use, unless they are defined in this Agreement.

By exchanging Confidential Information with UnityPay, you agree to this Agreement. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THIS AGREEMENT, YOU MAY NOT EXCHANGE ANY CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION WITH UnityPay.
