11. CONFIDENTIALITY
a) Each party hereunder may disclose to the other party certain Confidential Information of such party or of such party's associated companies, suppliers, or customers. For purposes of this Agreement, "Confidential Information" means all non-public information, in any form, furnished or made available in connection with this Agreement by or on behalf of one party ("Disclosing Party") to the other party ("Receiving Party") which is marked confidential, restricted, or with a similar designation, or would be understood by a reasonable person in the Receiving Party's position to be confidential. The terms and conditions of this Agreement and any Purchase Agreements shall also be deemed Confidential Information. Confidential Information will not be deemed to include information that: (i) is or becomes known to the public through no fault of the Receiving Party; (ii) is already known to the Receiving Party prior to its receipt hereunder or becomes known to the Receiving Party from a third party who has a lawful right to disclose the information; or (iii) is independently developed by the Receiving Party without reference to Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party.

b) The Receiving Party shall use at least the same degree of care in safeguarding Confidential Information as it uses for its own information of like importance, but in no event less than a reasonable standard of care. Without the prior written consent of the Disclosing Party, the Receiving Party will not disclose Confidential Information to any other person, except to its employees or agents who have a need to know with respect to the purposes of this Agreement and who are subject to confidentiality obligations with respect to such Confidential Information at least as restrictive as those contained herein. Upon the request of the Disclosing Party upon termination of this Agreement or at any other time, the Receiving Party shall promptly return or destroy all Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party (including copies thereof) in its possession or under its control. Neither party shall be liable for disclosure of Confidential Information if such disclosure is required to comply with applicable laws, governmental regulations or judicial or governmental orders, provided that the Receiving Party provides prior written notice of such disclosure to the Disclosing Party, takes reasonable and lawful actions to avoid or minimize the extent of such disclosure and takes reasonable steps to assist the Disclosing Party (at the Disclosing Party's expense) in contesting any such disclosure requirement. All Confidential Information will remain the property of the Disclosing Party, except to the extent that any rights with respect to such Confidential Information are expressly granted to the Receiving Party pursuant to this Agreement. Each party acknowledges that its breach of this section may cause irreparable damage and hereby agrees that the other party shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief in the event of such a breach, as well as such further relief as may be granted by a court of competent jurisdiction.
12. INSURANCE
Forrester shall, during the term of this Agreement, obtain and maintain, at its own expense: (i) workers' compensation coverage as required by applicable law; (ii) commercial general liability insurance in an amount not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 in the aggregate; (iii) professional liability insurance for errors and omissions in an amount not less than $2,000,000 annual aggregate and per claim; and (iv) if applicable, auto liability insurance in an amount not less than $1,000,000 per accident. In the event that Forrester is providing Services to Client under this Agreement, upon request Forrester will provide to Client certificate(s) of insurance evidencing the coverage required hereunder.
13. RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES
This Agreement is intended to create an independent contractor relationship between the parties. This Agreement will not be construed to create any employment relationship, partnership, joint venture, or agency relationship between the parties or to authorize either party to enter into any commitment or agreement binding on the other. Under no circumstance shall Forrester's employees be construed as Client employees. All of Forrester's employees providing Services hereunder shall be subject to the direction, supervision, and control of Forrester. Forrester shall be solely responsible for: (a) payment of all compensation to its employees; (b) withholding any and all appropriate taxes with respect to its employees; and (c) complying with any applicable employment laws and ordinances including, but not limited to, workers compensation, unemployment insurance, and wage and hour laws.
14. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS; GDPR
(a) Compliance. The parties agree to comply with all applicable laws, including data protection and privacy regulations, in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. For purposes of this Section 13 any capitalized term shall have the meaning set out in the GDPR and shall include the equivalent term used in other regulatory regimes applicable to the processing of Client Personal Data pursuant to this Agreement. Forrester shall (i) process Client Personal Data only as instructed by Client except where and to the extent otherwise required by applicable law; (ii) ensure that persons authorized to process Client Personal Data have committed themselves to confidentiality obligations; (iii) have no access to identifiable client sensitive personal data such as social security numbers, financial account numbers, or access to Special Categories of Personal Data unless otherwise agreed to separately in writing; (iv) maintain administrative, physical, and technical safeguards for protection of the security, confidentiality and integrity of Client Personal Data set forth in Annex II of the EU SCCs (as defined below) taking into account the nature of such data and risks presented by processing; and (v) notify Client without undue delay after becoming aware of a personal data breach that negatively impacts Client Personal Data and shall cooperate with Client’s reasonable requests to demonstrate compliance with the obligations set forth herein. Forrester shall not ‘sell’ Client Personal Data and shall be a ‘service provider’ as both terms are defined in the CCPA. To the extent Forrester receives a request from a Data Subject to exercise the Data Subject’s rights pursuant to applicable Data Protection Laws Forrester shall notify Client provided, however, Client acknowledges that Client employees may contact Forrester to exercise Data Subject rights and authorizes Forrester to respond to such requests directly without notice to Client unless notice is deemed appropriate taking into account the scope of the Data Subject request. Audits conducted by Client shall be conducted primarily via questionnaires issued to Forrester not more than once a calendar year unless any such audit is at the instruction of a Supervisory Authority. Client represents that it has all rights necessary to transfer to Forrester any Client Personal Data it makes available to Forrester and authorizes Forrester to use third party vendors in connection with the provision of services. The categories of Client Personal Data, Data Subjects and the nature of the Processing of Client Personal Data contemplated pursuant to this Agreement are stated in Annex I to the EU SCCs (as defined below). A list of Forrester’s third-party vendors that process client Personal Data is available to Client upon request. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the SCCs (as defined below) the SCCs shall govern.

(b) Data Transfers. Transfers of Client Personal Data from the European Economic Area, United Kingdom or Switzerland to countries not subject to an adequacy decision shall be governed by the Standard Contractual Clauses adopted by the European Commission Decision of 4 June 2021, Module 2, or Module 3 as applicable (“EU SCCs”), the International Data Transfer Addendum to the EU Commission Standard Contractual Clauses in force 21 March 2022 modified as applicable (“UK Addendum”) and the Swiss Addendum (“Swiss SCCs”) respectively, each in the form found at https://www.forrester.com/policies/standard-contractual-clauses/ (the EU SCCs, UK Addendum, and Swiss Addendum, collectively the “SCCs”). Execution of this Agreement shall be treated as the execution of the SCCs which are incorporated herein by reference and documents Client’s consent to such transfers.
15. MISCELLANEOUS
This Agreement and any Purchase Agreements hereunder shall be the complete agreement between Forrester and Client regarding the subject matter hereof. The terms and conditions of sale or license applicable to Forrester Works, Services and Service Units ordered hereunder shall be solely as set forth in this Agreement and the applicable Purchase Agreement, and any preprinted or standard Client terms or conditions contained in, or incorporated by reference into, a confirmation, purchase order or other document submitted by Client which purport to vary or supersede this Agreement or any executed Purchase Agreement shall be of no effect. This Agreement may not be changed or amended except in writing signed by both parties hereto, and neither party may assign this Agreement either in whole or in part without the prior written consent of the other party, except that either party may assign this Agreement as part of a corporate reorganization, consolidation, merger, or sale of substantially all of its assets. This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts without regard to its rules governing conflicts of law, and the parties hereby select the courts of Massachusetts to resolve any disputes arising under this Agreement. In the event any provision of this Agreement shall not be enforceable, the remainder of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.
