Thus, consider this a mutual non-disclosure agreement. Any Confidential Information or details shared by the Company, any representative of the Company, or the Participants at the Event is confidential, proprietary, and belongs solely and exclusively to the Party who discloses it. All Parties agree not to disclose, reveal or make use of any Confidential Information or any transactions, during discussions, from the forum or otherwise.

Client agrees not to use such confidential information in any manner other than in discussion with the Company or other Participants during the Event. Confidential Information includes, but is not limited to, information disclosed in connection with this Agreement, and shall not include information rightfully obtained from a third party.

Both Parties will keep Confidential Information in strictest confidence and shall use the best efforts to safeguard the Confidential Information and to protect it against disclosure, misuse, espionage, loss and theft.

We will also occasionally use adult or profane language to emphasize a point or connect with or surprise the audience (though we will never be lewd, and we will always use tact and discretion in doing so).

Certain people hear a "bad word" and it triggers them and offends them so much that it clouds them from even being able to absorb a valuable lesson that is being taught. Clients who are uncomfortable with such topics or language should not attend the Event.
