The Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to meet agreed timelines, subject to Client cooperation and timely provision of required access, information, and approvals. For phased projects, each phase is considered delivered upon written acceptance by the Client or upon expiry of a 5-business-day review period without written objection.

5. Confidentiality
Each party agrees to hold in confidence any non-public information disclosed by the other party in connection with the services ("Confidential Information") and not to disclose such information to third parties without prior written consent.
