10. Confidentiality<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Translator understands that the Translator, in relation to the performance of the Assignments, will have access to confidential information belonging to Linguacom and the Customer. Such confidential information may be, but is not limited to, financial, commercial and technical information, marketing information, business plans and information about the respective company’s customers, suppliers, products, services and business partners. The Translator is not allowed to use or reveal such Confidential Information to a third party, with the exception of such disclosure that is required for the execution of the Assignment. This applies to this Agreement’s duration as well as the time thereafter. <\/p><\/p>

The Translator undertakes to storage Confidential Information safely and protected from unauthorized interference.<\/p>

Within twenty-four (24) hours after an assignment has been completed, the Translator shall ensure that all material, regardless the format, belonging to the Customer, is destroyed in such a way that it cannot be restored.<\/p>

The limitations of liability do not apply to liability according to paragraph 9 (Immaterial property rights) or crime against paragraph 10 (Secrecy) and nor if there is premeditation or serious negligence.<\/p>

12. Duration of the assignment and notice<\/strong><\/p>\n

This Agreement enters into force the day the Translator has accepted an Assignment according to this Agreement. The Agreement is valid until further notice and may be terminated by both Parties with immediate effect. Notwithstanding the termination of a Party, this Agreement shall continue to be valid for Assignments that have been accepted and given to the Translator before termination has taken place.<\/p><\/p>

13. Messages<\/strong><\/p>\n

Messages under this Agreement shall always be made by e-mail to Party to the latest notified e-mail address, except as set out in paragraph 3, 5 and 6 above.

Swedish substantial law shall apply for this Agreement.<\/p><\/p>

Disputes that arise from this Agreement shall be finally settled by arbitration administrated by SCC.<\/p>

Rules for Expedited Arbitration shall apply, unless the SCC determines, taking into account the complexity of the case, the amount in dispute and other circumstances, that the Arbitration Rules shall apply. In the latter case, SCC shall also decide whether the Arbitral Tribunal shall consist of one (1) or three (3) arbitrators. The arbitration procedure shall take place in Stockholm. The language to be used in the arbitration is Swedish.<\/p>

The parties undertake, without limitations in time, not to reveal the existence or the content of arbitration from this Agreement or information about negotiations, arbitration or mediation for the same reason. The provisions of this paragraph 14 is applicable unless otherwise provided by law, other regulations, bid from another authority, or else is required for judgment enforcement.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>
