‍2. LIMITATIONS ON ACTIVITIES.
2.1.  Limitations on Activities. Your activities under this Referral Agreement shall be limited as follows:
2.1.1 You shall conduct all of Your business in Your own name and in accordance with the highest business standards, acting dutifully, in good faith and in compliance with all laws, and not perform any act which would or might reflect adversely upon the Products or the business, integrity or goodwill of BriteCore. 
2.1.2 You shall not be, or purport to be, authorized to legally represent BriteCore or to conduct negotiations on behalf of BriteCore. You shall not make any representations or other statements about Products, prices or business practices, except that You shall forward to potential customers (i) unmodified marketing materials provided by BriteCore and (ii) references to BriteCore’s standard conditions of sale, as published by BriteCore on its website or otherwise. You shall not have the authority to make any commitments or agreements or incur any liabilities whatsoever on behalf of BriteCore or register this Agreement under local registered agency law nor shall BriteCore be liable for any acts, omissions to act, contracts, commitments, promises or representations made by You. 
2.1.3 You shall not use any trademarks, names or other identifiers owned or used by BriteCore (“Marks”), except that You may refer to BriteCore and the Products in conversations and written correspondence with potential customers in the same manner as BriteCore does in its own marketing materials and website. Any other use of Marks (e.g., on Your website) has to be pre-approved by BriteCore in writing.
2.1.4 You are an independent contractor, and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to (a) give either party the power to direct and control the day-to-day activities of the other; (b) create a principal-agent or employer-employee relationship; or (c) constitute the parties as partners, joint venturers, co-owners or otherwise as participants in a joint undertaking.
2.1.5  All financial and other obligations associated with Your business are solely your responsibility. As an independent contractor, the mode, manner and method used by You shall be under Your sole control  (subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement) and You shall be solely responsible for risks incurred in the operation of Your business and the benefits thereof. You shall bear all of Your own expenses in connection with the performance of this Agreement and will not be entitled to reimbursement of any such expenses by BriteCore.

As between the parties, BriteCore retains all right, title and interest in and to the Products and all technology, data, information or other content embodied therein or provided thereby, as well as any intellectual property rights or similar rights in connection therewith, and You acknowledge that You neither own nor acquire any rights in or to the Products. You therefore, agree to hold Confidential Information in the strictest confidence, to use it only for the performance of this Agreement, to release it only to Your agents, employees or representatives requiring such information who are bound by confidentiality obligations at least as restrictive as those herein, and not to release or disclose it to any third party without the prior written consent of BriteCore.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, once You establish a Commissionable Lead (defined below) with BriteCore, You will not refer a direct competitor of BriteCore to such Commissionable Lead. You will not enter into an agreement with a third party the effect of which would prohibit your submission of a Proposed Lead (defined below) pursuant to this Agreement.

You shall identify each potential customer (“Proposed Lead”) and relevant commercial conditions relating to such Proposed Lead in a BriteCore Lead Form (“BLF”), a standard form generated by BriteCore (and available online via a link provided to You by BriteCore), or via some other method at BriteCore’s option. At BriteCore’s request, You shall (a) supply any additional information reasonably requested by BriteCore, (b) discuss each completed BLF in detail with BriteCore, and (c) assist BriteCore in making contact with the Proposed Lead by arranging an introduction, meeting, conference call or other means of communication with the Proposed Lead.3.2  Acceptance of Leads.

BriteCore will be under no obligation to accept any BLF submitted by You and may reject or decline to accept BLFs for any or no reason at its sole discretion, including, without limitation, because:
          3.2.1  the Proposed Lead was an existing customer of BriteCore's at the time of submission of the BLF;
