Copyright Policy
The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the “DMCA”) provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that electronic material infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law. If you believe in good faith that materials posted on the Sites infringe your copyright, you (or your agent) may send Varonis a "Notification of Claimed Infringement" requesting that the material be removed or access to it blocked. The notice must include the following information:
- A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the works that have been allegedly infringed;
- Identification of the copyrighted work alleged to have been infringed (or if multiple copyrighted works located on the Sites are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works);
- Identification of the specific material alleged to be infringing or the subject of infringing activity, and information reasonably sufficient to allow Varonis to locate the material on the Sites;
- Your name, address, telephone number, and email address (if available);
- A statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent or the law; and
- A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
If you believe in good faith that a notice of copyright infringement has been wrongly filed against you, the DMCA permits you to send us a counter-notice.
Notices and counter-notices must meet the then-current statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA. Notices and counter-notices with respect to the Sites should be sent to:

Exhibit A
NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT
This Non-Disclosure Agreement (this “Agreement”) is entered into effective as of the date of your initial access, browsing, or use of the Varonis Community by and between Varonis Systems, Inc. (including its affiliates and subsidiaries, the “Company”) and the individual(s) and the entity accessing, browsing or using the Varonis Community (“Recipient”)
-
For the purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information” means any and all information and its copies, including, but not limited to, documentation, scientific, designs, software, prototypes, product, technical or business information, business plans, financial information, ideas, discoveries, inventions, specifications, formulae, processes, programs, plans, drawings, models, network configuration and rights-of-way, requirements, standards, financial and non-financial data, marketing, trade and manufacturing and know-how secrets, customer lists, prices, as well as any and all intellectual and industrial property rights contained therein and/or in relation thereto; provided however, that Confidential Information shall not include information which is required or compelled by law to be disclosed, provided that Recipient gives reasonable prior notice to the Company to allow it to seek protective or other court orders.
-
Recipient shall use the Confidential Information disclosed by the Company to Recipient, including without limitation information acquired by Recipient from the Company’s employees or inspection of the Company’s property only for the purpose of the following (“Activity”): (i) the Recipient use of the Varonis Community, and (ii) the evaluation of potential business opportunities between the Company and Recipient.
-
Recipient shall keep Confidential Information of the Company in confidence; disclose it only to Recipient’s employees with a genuine need to know and who are under confidentiality restrictions and other restrictions under this Agreement not materially less restrictive than those set forth herein; and reproduce it only to the extent necessary for the Activity, for an unlimited period. Recipient shall protect Confidential Information of the Company with at least the same degree of care as it normally exercises to protect its own Confidential Information of a similar nature, but no less than a reasonable degree of care. Recipient must take all precautions to maintain the confidentiality of the Confidential Information and to protect the Confidential Information from unauthorized use or disclosure. If Recipient becomes aware of any unauthorized use or disclosure of the Confidential Information, Recipient must: (i) immediately notify the Company in writing, and (ii) at Recipient’s expense, take all steps which the Company may require to remedy, prevent or stop the breach. Recipient is responsible for any unauthorized use or disclosure of the Confidential Information by any of its employees and/or any other party to which Recipient disclosed the Confidential Information and must do all that is necessary to prevent any such unauthorized use or disclosure.
-
Recipient must not disclose any Confidential Information to any person except: (i) with the prior written consent of the Company, (ii) as required by law, or (iii) to any employees with a genuine need to know. If Recipient is required by law to disclose any Confidential Information, Recipient must, as soon as reasonably practicable and prior to any disclosure: (i) notify the Company of the requirement to disclose the Confidential Information, (ii) give the Company a reasonable opportunity to take any steps which the Company considers necessary to protect the confidentiality of the Confidential Information, and (iii) do whatever is necessary to ensure that any Confidential Information disclosed is treated with confidence (including notifying the requestor that the Confidential Information is confidential to the Company).
-
All Confidential Information provided by the Company is provided ‘As Is’ and without any warranty, express, implied or otherwise, regarding its accuracy or performance and it shall remain the sole property of the Company. For the avoidance of any doubt, the Company shall incur no liability whatsoever as a result of the use of its Confidential Information.
-
Recipient, at the request of the Company, shall return to the Company all Confidential Information received from the Company and copies thereof or, at the request of the Company destroy the Confidential Information and all copies thereof and furnish to the Company a written statement attesting to their destruction.
-
No license, under any trademark, patent, copyright, mask work protection right or any other intellectual property is either granted or implied by the conveying of Confidential Information to Recipient. None of the Confidential Information which may be disclosed by the Company shall constitute any representation, warranty, assurance, guarantee or inducement by the Company of any kind, and, in particular, with respect to the non-infringement of any intellectual property rights, or other rights of third parties or the Company.
-
Neither this Agreement, nor the disclosure of Confidential Information under this Agreement, nor the ongoing discussions and correspondence between the parties, shall constitute or imply a commitment or binding obligation between the parties to enter into any commercial relationship. If, in the future, the parties elect to enter into a binding commitment regarding a commercial relationship, such commitment will be explicitly stated in a separate, definitive written agreement executed by both parties, and the parties hereby affirm that they do not intend their discussions, correspondence, and other activities to be construed as forming a contract relating thereto or any other transaction between them without execution of such separate, definitive written agreement.
-
Recipient agrees that any violation or threat of violation hereof will result in irreparable harm to the Company for which damages would be an inadequate remedy. Therefore, in addition to its rights and remedies otherwise available at law, the Company shall be entitled to equitable relief as a court may deem proper, including injunctions, to prevent any unauthorized use, disclosure or breach hereof.
-
Recipient shall adhere to all applicable export laws and regulations and shall not export or re-export or otherwise transmit, directly or indirectly, any Confidential Information, or the direct product of Confidential Information, except with the applicable government export approvals or export permits.
-
Recipient hereby declares and agrees that any information and/or idea and/or patent and or development plan which shall be developed, acquired or attained by him, in whole or in part, during its business relationship with the Company and with respect to the Activity shall fully belong to the Company and that the Company shall have all rights including intellectual property rights in such information. Nothing herein will be construed as granting to Recipient any rights, express or implied, in the Company’s Confidential Information, other than the right to use it for the Activity, and Recipient shall not be allowed to: (i) modify, or create any derivative work of, the Company’s Confidential Information or any portion thereof; (ii) reverse assemble, decompile, reverse engineer or otherwise attempt to derive source code (or the underlying ideas, algorithms, structure or organization) from the Company’s Confidential Information; (iii) copy the Company’s product or include any portion of the Company’s product in any other software program; (iv) develop any other products containing any of the concepts and ideas contained in the Company’s Confidential Information that are not readily apparent from normal use of the Company’s Confidential Information; and (v) develop methods to enable unauthorized parties to use the Company’s Confidential Information.
-
Recipient agrees that all of its obligations undertaken herein relating to Confidential Information shall survive termination or expiration of this Agreement.
