Legal Demand for Authorizing Customer and User Information

NetDocuments disclaims any interest in the Customer Data. NetDocuments may from time to time receive a subpoena, order from a court, tribunal or government entity with jurisdiction or other legally binding demand (collectively, a "Legal Demand") to obtain access to or copies of Customer Data. Upon such receipt, NetDocuments will, unless prohibited by the terms of the Legal Demand or governing law, promptly provide written notice to the Authorizing Customer, not to any Users, of such Legal Demand. To the extent the Authorizing Customer does not eliminate the legal efficacy, by means of a successful motion to quash or other action of the Legal Demand, NetDocuments may comply with the Legal Demand. This paragraph is not intended to, and does not, create a duty on the part of NetDocuments to preserve Customer Data if there is threatened or pending litigation, which shall be the responsibility of the Authorizing Customer and the User. NETDOCUMENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE CAUSED BY NETDOCUMENTS' PRODUCTION OF CUSTOMER DATA, OR ANY OTHER ACTION OF OMISSION, IN COMPLIANCE WITH THIS PARAGRAPH.
