Evaluation and restricted-use terms

Recipient may use Confidential Information solely for the transaction-specific Permitted Purpose recorded with this attestation and during the recorded Evaluation Period. Evaluation Access is limited, revocable, and does not grant any source-code, object-code, patent, copyright, trade-secret, formula, model, schema, architecture, implementation, training, development, sublicensing, resale, white-label, hosting, or other technology right by disclosure, implication, estoppel, or otherwise. Any hosted-service or output right requires a separately executed Order.

Recipient and the individual signer shall protect Confidential Information using no less than reasonable care, use it only for the Permitted Purpose, preserve all markings, and disclose it only to authorized persons with a strict need to know and binding duties at least as protective. Accidental visibility or receipt does not authorize use or retention. Recipient shall stop access, promptly notify HomeSifter, preserve only the evidence reasonably required to report the event, and return or delete the material as directed.

Except for an exact item affirmatively authorized in the session record, Recipient and the individual signer shall not photograph, screenshot, screen-record, audio-record, video-record, stream, mirror, print, transcribe, OCR, scrape, crawl, export, download, cache, archive, bulk-query, systematically compare, copy, or reproduce any demonstration, Controlled Material, Service behavior, or Authorized Output, nor combine observations across sessions or sources to reconstruct an omitted sequence, rule, mapping, implementation, or substitute-product specification.

Recipient and the individual signer shall not upload, paste, attach, transmit, expose, prompt with, train on, fine-tune with, ground on, retrieve from, embed, index, benchmark, evaluate, test, summarize, or generate code, requirements, designs, or other material from Confidential Information or Controlled Materials using any public, enterprise, private, local, or agentic AI System, meeting assistant, transcription bot, browser copilot, automated note-taker, or persistence mechanism, except under an exact written exception approved by HomeSifter.

Recipient and the individual signer shall not use or materially rely on Confidential Information or Evaluation Access to reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, decode, derive, reconstruct, infer, model-extract, probe, enumerate, benchmark for substitute development, inspect nonpublic APIs, logs, prompts, credentials, browser storage, source maps, network traffic, hidden fields, or systematically vary inputs to discover nonpublic rules, formulas, thresholds, configurations, mappings, state transitions, security limits, or other behavior. No security testing, credential reuse, exploit, or access beyond the presenter-authorized action is permitted.

Recipient and the individual signer shall not use or materially rely on Confidential Information, Controlled Materials, Product Intelligence, or Evaluation Access to prepare or cause any person or AI System to prepare substitute-product requirements, prompts, tickets, diagrams, schemas, workflows, datasets, acceptance criteria, training materials, code, designs, or specifications; or to develop, commission, manage, supervise, procure, finance, license, co-own, operate, teach, delegate, outsource, consult on, or otherwise assist a substitute feature, service, implementation, or commercial offering. This restriction applies regardless of whether the activity is performed as an employee, officer, contractor, consultant, project manager, adviser, reseller, licensor, joint venturer, investor, or independent provider. It restricts misuse of HomeSifter disclosure and access; it is not a general covenant not to compete and does not prohibit demonstrably independent development without use of or reference to protected information.

Recipient shall admit only named Authorized Attendees and permitted Representatives with a strict need to know and binding protective duties. Every technical, product, developer, consultant, contractor, client, or other observer must execute an individual joinder before access. Recipient is responsible for acts and omissions of its personnel, affiliates, contractors, systems, and Representatives as if its own, and the individual signer shall not admit, share with, relay to, or enable an unlisted person or system.

Recipient obtains no right to collect, copy, train on, sublicense, resell, publish, bulk-download, retain, remove attribution from, or reuse Third-Party Data, including MLS, broker, photographer, map, lender, consumer, or property content. Operative source licenses, role limitations, privacy duties, attribution rules, and retention requirements control. Recipient shall not expose private remarks, retain a photo outside its authorized context, or treat a demonstration or Authorized Output as granting a data, brokerage, lending, or consumer-information license.

Recipient and the individual signer shall stop further access and promptly notify HomeSifter after discovering unauthorized capture, disclosure, access, AI processing, probing, credential use, loss, or a suspected Security Finding. Recipient shall preserve relevant evidence without alteration, cooperate in containment, and shall not investigate beyond the minimum needed to stop the authorized action and report observed facts, retain proof-of-concept material, publish the finding, contact another party on HomeSifter’s behalf, or use the finding competitively, except as law expressly protects.

At HomeSifter’s request, expiration, or end of discussions, Recipient and the individual signer shall immediately stop use, revoke credentials and links, and return or permanently delete Controlled Materials, permitted notes, derived Confidential Information, cloud histories, meeting artifacts, caches, embeddings, prompt histories, and provider copies. Within five business days when requested, an authorized officer shall certify completion and identify any legally required counsel record, inaccessible ordinary-course backup, or unresolved exception.

Confidential Information excludes information Recipient proves through contemporaneous written records was lawfully known without restriction before disclosure, became public without breach, was lawfully received from an authorized third party, or was independently developed without use of or reference to Confidential Information or Evaluation Access. Recipient remains free to compete and independently develop or procure products without such use, access, extraction, or reconstruction. Lawful protected reporting and government disclosures remain permitted.

The evaluation agreement continues for five years unless ended earlier. Restricted-use and confidentiality duties for non-trade-secret information continue for five years after each disclosure; trade-secret duties continue while the information qualifies as a trade secret. Subject to required legal findings, available relief may include injunction, preservation, return or deletion orders, actual loss, unjust enrichment, a reasonable royalty, and other lawful remedies. New Jersey law governs, with the contractually stated forum. The signer consents to transact electronically, intends the final affirmative action as an electronic signature for this recipient attestation, and agrees that the preserved version, timestamp, self-asserted identity evidence, clause initials, record hash, and receipt may evidence assent. This online recipient attestation does not include or activate a jury-trial waiver.
