Non-Disclosure Agreement

This Mutual Non-Disclosure Agreement is between the College of Vascular & Endovascular Surgery ("CVES", "the College"), founded by Omer Hamza Dinc, and the person signing below ("the Recipient"), including any organisation they represent.

All non-public information disclosed before or after signing — including the CVES platform, Workspace, registries, software, source code, designs, logo artwork, product roadmaps, business and financial plans, partner and member lists, data structures and this presentation — in any form, whether or not marked confidential.

• Use Confidential Information only to evaluate a possible relationship with CVES.
• Not disclose it to anyone except advisers bound by equal confidentiality, and remain responsible for them.
• Not copy, screenshot, record, reverse-engineer, replicate or build a competing product from it.
• Protect it with at least reasonable care.

Information that is or becomes public without breach, was lawfully known before disclosure, is independently developed without use of Confidential Information, or must be disclosed by law (with prompt notice to CVES where permitted).

All Confidential Information and intellectual property, including the CVES name, logo, software and content, remain the exclusive property of CVES. No licence or right is granted except as stated here.

For 24 months the Recipient will not use Confidential Information to approach CVES faculty, partners or members to circumvent CVES, or to launch a substantially similar platform.

Obligations last five years from signing (indefinitely for source code and trade secrets). On request the Recipient will return or destroy all Confidential Information.

Breach may cause irreparable harm; CVES may seek injunctive relief in addition to damages.

This agreement is governed by the laws of England and Wales, whose courts have exclusive jurisdiction. Typing your name and confirming online is a valid electronic signature under the Electronic Communications Act 2000; CVES records the time, IP address and browser of signature.
