This Public Training Services Agreement is between MongoDB, Inc., a Delaware corporation, located at 1633 Broadway, 38th Floor New York, NY 10019 (“Company”), and the purchaser or user of Company’s services that accepts the terms of this Agreement (“Customer”). The effective date of this Agreement ('Effective Date') is the date that Customer uses or purchases Company services. Capitalized terms have the meaning set forth in Section 8.

  1. Services. Customer may purchase training services (the "Services") under this Agreement from Company by registering online at www.mongodb.com. Services are only for Customer’s internal use and Customer may not use the Services to supply any consulting, support or training services to any third party.

  2. Fees. Customer shall pay fees ("Fees") set forth online at the time of registration.

  3. Nondisclosure. For purposes of this Agreement, the party disclosing Confidential Information is the “Discloser,” and the party receiving Confidential Information is the “Recipient.” Confidential Information means all information concerning the parties’ business including, but not limited to, all tangible, intangible, visual, electronic, present, or future information such as: (a) trade secrets; (b) financial information, including pricing; (c) technical information, including research, development, procedures, algorithms, data, designs, and know-how; (d) business information, including operations, planning, marketing interests, and products; and (e) the terms of any agreement between Company and Company and the discussions, negotiations and proposals related to that agreement. Confidential Information disclosed to the other party must be clearly identified. Recipient will only have a duty to protect Confidential Information if it is disclosed in a manner in which the Discloser reasonably communicated, or the Recipient should reasonably have understood under the circumstances, that the disclosure should be treated as confidential, whether or not the specific designation "confidential" or any similar designation is used. The Recipient does not have an obligation to protect Confidential Information that is: (a) in the public domain through no fault of the Recipient; (b) within the legitimate possession of the Recipient, with no confidentiality obligations to a third party; (c) lawfully received from a third party having rights in the information without restriction, and without notice of any restriction against its further disclosure; (d) independently developed by the Recipient without breaching this Agreement or by parties who have not had, either directly or indirectly, access to or knowledge of the Confidential Information; or (e) disclosed with the prior written consent of the Discloser. A party may disclose Confidential Information when compelled to do so by law if it provides reasonable prior notice to the other party. Upon Discloser’s written request, Recipient will promptly return all Confidential Information and copies, or notify Discloser in writing that it has destroyed all such materials. The Recipient may use Residuals (as defined below) for any purpose, including use in the acquisition, development, manufacture, promotion, sale, or maintenance of products and services; provided that this right to Residuals does not represent a license under any intellectual property and/or proprietary rights of Discloser. “Residuals” means information that is retained in the unaided memories of Recipient’s employees, agents, or contractors as permitted herein who have had access to the Discloser’s Confidential Information. Memory is unaided if the employee or contractor has not intentionally memorized the Confidential Information for the purpose of retaining and subsequently using or disclosing it.
