9.3 If Duxly has already partially fulfilled its obligations when the force majeure occurs, Duxly is entitled to separately invoice what has already been delivered and the client is obliged to pay this invoice as if it were a separate transaction.
10.1 The parties shall keep confidential any information which they provide to each other before, during or after the execution of the agreement if this information is marked confidential or if the receiving party knows or should know that the information was intended to be confidential. The parties shall also impose this obligation on their employees as well as third parties engaged by them for the execution of the agreement.

11.3 Duxly's liability for attributable failure to perform the Agreement shall arise only if the Client gives Duxly immediate and proper notice of default in writing, setting a reasonable period to remedy the failure, and Duxly remains attributably in breach of its obligations even after that period. The notice of default must contain as much detail as possible of the failure, so that Duxly is able to respond adequately.
