"Confidential Information" means all items identified as being confidential by the disclosing party, including: (i) any portion of the Software, in object and source code form, and any related technology, ideas, algorithms or any trade secrets; (ii) either party's business or financial information and plans; and (iii) the terms of this Agreement. "Confidential Information" will not include information that the receiving party can show: (a) is or becomes generally known or publicly available through no fault of the receiving party; (b) is known by or in the possession of the receiving party prior to its disclosure, as evidenced by business records, and is not subject to restriction; or (c) is lawfully obtained from a third party who has the right to make such disclosure.

The Technical Support includes first level support of Error management and second level support dedicated to bug fixing.
2.2. Error Correction
KapIT shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts to correct any Error reported by Customer's Qualified Individuals in the current, unmodified Major Version of Software in accordance with the Service Level hereunder.
Depending on the seriousness of the Error, KapIT shall, at its sole discretion, (i) provide the Error correction, or (ii) include the Error correction in the next regular Update.
2.3. Other Problems
If KapIT believes that a problem reported by Customer may not be due to an Error in the Software, KapIT will so notify Customer's Qualified Individuals. At that time Customer may: (i) instruct KapIT in writing to proceed with Error determination at Customer's own expense within a predefined budget or (ii) instruct KapIT that Customer does not wish the problem pursued at its own expense.

Customer shall not be liable for (a) problem determination or repair to the extent problems that are due to Errors in the Software; (b) work performed under this Section in excess of its instructions and (c) work performed after Customer has notified KapIT that it no longer wishes work on problem determination to be continued at its own possible expense (such notice shall be deemed given when actually received by KapIT).

2.4. Assignment of Technical Support Services
KapIT shall have the right, at any time, to assign the Technical Support services hereunder to any assignee it deems appropriate after giving Customer three months notice prior to assignment to a company other than KapIT and its subsidiaries.

KapIT shall have no liability for any changes to hardware that may be necessary to use Software due to correction of the Error.
The Agreement does not entitle Customer to obtain subsequent Major Versions of the Software.
2.7. Termination or Failure to Renew Product Technical Support
Termination of Technical Support or failure to renew will not affect the license of the Software.
