`
`certain information that is or will be encompassed by discovery demands by the Parties involves
`
`the production or disclosure of trade secrets, confidential business information, or other
`
`proprietary information;
`
`WHEREAS, there is a possibility that documents relevant to this proceeding may contain
`
`sensitive personal information that is protected under federal, state or foreign data protection
`
`laws or regulations, or other privacy obligations;
`
`WHEREAS, the Parties seek a protective order limiting disclosure thereof in accordance
`
`with Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(c):
`
`THEREFORE, it is hereby stipulated among the Parties and ORDERED that :
`
`1.
`
`Each Party may designate for protection under this Order, in whole
`
`or in part, any document, information or material that constitutes or includes, in
`
`whole or in part, confidential or proprietary information or trade secrets of the Party
`
`or a Third Party to whom the Party reasonably believes it owes an obligation of
`
`confidentiality with respect to such document, information or material ("Protected
`
`Material"). Protected Material shall be designated by the Party producing it by
`
`affixing a legend or stamp on such document, information or material as follows:
`
`"CONFIDENTIAL," "HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL - ATTORNEYS ' EYES
`
`ONLY," or "HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL SOURCE CODE" (or substantially
`
`similar designations) ("Designated Material"). The designation shall be placed
`
`clearly on each page of the Protected Material ( except deposition and hearing
`
`transcripts and natively produced documents) for which such protection is sought.
`
`For deposition and hearing transcripts, the designation shall be placed on the cover
`
`page of the transcript (if not already present on the cover page of the transcript when

`
`received from the court reporter) by each attorney receiving a copy of the transcript
`
`after that attorney receives notice of the designation of some or all of that transcript.
`
`For natively produced Protected Material, the designation shall be placed in the
`
`filename of each such natively produced document.
`
`2.
`
`With respect to Designated Material, 1 subject to the provisions
`
`herein and unless otherwise stated, this Order governs, without limitation: (a) all
`
`documents, electronically stored information, and/or things as defined by the Federal
`
`Rules of Civil Procedure; (b) all pretrial, hearing or deposition testimony, or
`
`documents marked as exhibits or for identification in depositions and hearings; ( c)
`
`pretrial pleadings, exhibits to pleadings and other court filings; ( d) affidavits; and
`
`( e) stipulations. All copies, reproductions, extracts, digests and complete or partial
`
`summaries prepared from any Designated Materials shall also be considered
`
`Designated Material and treated as such under this Order.
`
`3.
`
`A designation of Protected Material (e.g., "CONFIDENTIAL,"
`
`"HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL - ATTORNEYS' EYES ONLY," or "HIGHLY
`
`CONFIDENTIAL SOURCE CODE") may be made at any time. Inadvertent or
`
`unintentional production of documents, information or material that should have
`
`been Designated Material shall not be deemed a waiver in whole or in part of a claim
`
`for confidential treatment. Any party that inadvertently or unintentionally produces
`
`Protected Material without designating it as Designated Material may request
`
`1 The term Designated Material is used throughout this Protective Order to refer to the class of
`materials designated as "CONFIDENTIAL," "HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL - ATTORNEYS'
`EYES ONLY," or "HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL SOURCE CODE," both individually and
`collectively.

`
`destruction of that Protected Material by notifying the recipient(s) in writing, as soon
`
`as reasonably possible after the producing Party becomes aware of the inadvertent
`
`or unintentional disclosure, and provide replacement Protected Material that is
`
`properly designated within five (5) calendar days of that notice. The recipient(s)
`
`shall then destroy all copies of the inadvertently or unintentionally produced
`
`Protected Materials. For clarity, this provision does not apply to privileged material,
`
`which is governed by Paragraph 15.

`
`"CONFIDENTIAL" documents, information and material may be
`
`disclosed only to the following persons, except upon receipt of the prior written
`
`consent of the designating party, upon order of the Court, or as set forth in paragraph
`
`15 herein:
`
`outside counsel of record in this Action2 for the Parties;
`
`employees of such counsel assigned to and reasonably necessary to assist such
`
`a.
`

`
`counsel in the litigation of this Action;
`
`c.
`
`up to two in-house counsel for the Parties who are members in good standing of at
`
`least one state bar, province or territory and have responsibility for making decisions
`
`dealing directly with the litigation of this Action and their paralegals. Prior to viewing
`
`"CONFIDENTIAL" materials, any in-house counsel resident outside the territorial United
`
`States shall sign the undertaking attached hereto as Appendix B;
`
`d.
`
`two employees of a Party who are assisting in-house counsel with the litigation of
`
`this Action.

`e.
`
`outside consultants or experts3 (i.e., not existing employees or affiliates of a Party
`
`or an affiliate of a Party) retained for the purpose of this litigation, provided that such
`
`consultants or experts are not presently employed by the Parties hereto for purposes other
`
`than this Action. 4 Before access is given, the consultant or expert shall complete the
`
`undertaking attached as Appendix A hereto and the same shall be served upon any
`
`producing Party with a current curriculum vitae of the consultant or expert at least ten ( 10)
`
`days before access to the Protected Material is to be given to that consultant. However,
`
`the producing Party may notify the receiving Party in writing that it objects to disclosure
`
`of Protected Material to a consultant or expert. The producing Party waives objection to
`
`disclosure of its Designated Material by a receiving Party to an identified outside
`
`consultant or expert of a receiving Party if the Producing Party provides no written
`
`objection within ten (10) days of service by a receiving Party of the Appendix A and
`
`current curriculum vitae of the identified outside consultant or expert. Such a waiver shall
`
`not preclude a Producing Party from raising an objection at a later time with respect to
`
`Protected Material if a party believes in good faith that newly disclosed or discovered
`
`3 For any such person, the curriculum vitae shall identify his/her (i) current employer(s), (ii) each
`person or entity from whom s/he has received compensation or funding for work in his or her areas
`of expertise or to whom the s/he has provided professional services, including in connection with
`a litigation, at any time during the preceding five years; (iii) (by name and number of the case,
`filing date, and location of court) any litigation in connection with which s/he has offered expert
`testimony, including through a declaration, report, or testimony at a deposition or trial, during the
`preceding five years; and (iv) and an identification of any patents or patent applications in which
`the technical advisor is identified as an inventor or applicant, is involved in prosecuting or
`maintaining, or has any pecuniary interest. If such consultant or expert believes any of this
`information is subject to a confidentiality obligation to a third-party, then the s/he should provide
`whatever information can be disclosed without violating any confidentiality agreements, and the
`Party seeking to disclose Protected Material to the consultant or expert shall be available to meet
`and confer with the designating Party regarding any such engagement.
`4 For avoidance of doubt, an independent expert or consultant retained (as opposed to employed)
`by a Party on another litigation would not be precluded under this section.

`
`information about the expert, had it been known at the time the outside consultant or expert
`
`was disclosed, would have warranted such an objection. The Parties agree to promptly
`
`confer and use good faith to resolve any such objection. If the Parties are unable to resolve
`
`any objection, the producing Party may file a motion with the Court within fifteen (15)
`
`days of the notice, or within such other time as the Parties may agree, seeking a protective
`
`order with respect to the proposed disclosure. The producing Party shall have the burden
`
`of proving the need for a protective order. No disclosure shall occur until all such
`
`objections are resolved by agreement or Court order;

`f.
`
`independent litigation support services, including persons working for or as court
`
`reporters, graphics or design services, jury or trial consulting services, and photocopy,

`
`to assist counsel with the litigation of this Action; and
`
`g.
`
`the Court and its personnel and any mutually-agreed upon mediator or court-
`

`
`5.
`
`A Party shall designate documents, information or material as
`
`"CONFIDENTIAL" only upon a good faith belief that the documents, information
`
`or material contains confidential or proprietary information or trade secrets of the
`
`Party or a Third Party to whom the Party reasonably believes it owes an obligation
`
`of confidentiality with respect to such documents, information or material.
`
`6.
`
`Documents, information or material produced in this Action,
`
`including but not limited to Protected Material designated as Designated Material,
`
`and the knowledge of the existence of such Protected Material (i) shall be used by

`
`(ii) shall not be used for any business purpose or any other purpose, such as in
`
`connection with any legal or administrative proceeding, including but not limited to
`
`any proceeding at the U.S . Patent and Trademark Office (or any similar agency of a
`
`foreign government), or directly or indirectly for any other purpose whatsoever and
`
`(iii) shall not be disclosed to any person who is not entitled to receive such Protected
`
`Material as herein provided. All produced Protected Material shall be carefully
`
`maintained so as to preclude access by persons who are not entitled to receive such
`
`Protected Material, and any person or entity who obtains access to Designated
`
`Material or the contents thereof pursuant to this Order shall not make any copies,
`
`duplicates, extracts, summaries or descriptions of such Designated Material or any
`
`portion thereof except as may be reasonably necessary in the litigation of this Action.
`
`Any such copies, duplicates, extracts, summaries or descriptions shall be classified
`
`Designated Materials with the same confidentiality designation as the source
`
`material, and subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Order.
`
`7.
`
`To the extent a producing Party believes that certain Protected
`
`Material qualifying to be designated CONFIDENTIAL is so sensitive that its
`
`dissemination deserves even further limitation, the producing Party may designate
`
`such Protected Material "HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL - ATTORNEYS ' EYES
`
`ONLY," or to the extent such Protected Material includes computer source code5
`
`5 "Source code" means computer code, formulas , engineering specifications, or schematics that
`define or otherwise describe in detail the algorithms or structure of software or hardware designs.
`Source code includes source code, object code (i.e., computer instructions and data definitions
`expressed in a form suitable for input to an assembler, compiler, or other translator), microcode,
`register transfer language ("RTL"), firmware, and hardware description language ("HDL"), as well
`as any and all programmer notes, annotations, and other comments of any type related thereto and
`accompanying the code. For avoidance of doubt, this includes, but is not limited to, source files ,

`and/or live data (that is, data as it exists residing in a database or databases)
`
`(individually and collectively "Source Code Material"), the producing Party may
`
`designate such Protected Material as "HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL SOURCE
`
`CODE."
`

`
`For Protected Material designated HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL -
`
`ATTORNEYS' EYES ONLY, access to, and disclosure of, such Protected Material
`
`shall be limited to individuals listed in paragraphs 4(a-b) and (e-g).
`
`9.
`
`For Source Code Material designated HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL
`
`SOURCE CODE, access to, and disclosure of, such Source Code Material shall be
`
`limited to individuals listed in paragraphs 4(a-b), (e), and (g), and the following
`
`additional restrictions apply:
`
`a.
`
`Access to a Party's Source Code Material shall be provided only on "stand-alone"
`
`computer(s) (that is, the computer may not be linked to any network, including a local
`
`area network ("LAN"), an intranet or the Internet). The standalone computer shall be a
`
`current vintage, Windows-based laptop or desktop computer having at least 4 gigabytes
`
`of memory, shall have a mouse, and a screen with a minimum size of fifteen inches, and
`
`shall be connectable to a second screen supplied by the receiving party at the receiving
`
`party' s option. The stand-alone computer(s) may only be located within the continental
`
`United States at the offices of the producing Party's outside counsel. Specifically, unless
`
`otherwise agreed to by the parties, the stand-alone computer will be located as follows:
`
`make files, intermediate output files, executable files, header files , resource files , library files ,
`module definition files , map files, object files, linker files, browse info files , debug files, and files
`containing source code in C, C++, BREW, Java ME, J2ME, assembler, digital signal processor
`(DSP) programming languages, VHDL, Verilog, other HDL formats, and any other human
`readable text programming languages.

`
`(1) for the Amazon Defendants at the offices of Fenwick & West LLP; (2) for Microsoft
`
`at the offices of Sidley Austin LLP; and (3) for Google at the offices of Jones Day.
`
`b.
`
`The stand-alone computer(s) shall have disk encryption and be password protected.
`
`Use or possession of any outside electronic input/output device ( e.g., USB memory stick,
`
`mobile phone, tablet, personal digital assistants (PDAs), Blackberries, Dictaphones, voice
`
`recorders, external or portable telephone jack, camera or any camera-enabled device, CD,
`
`floppy disk, portable hard drive, laptop, or any device that can access the Internet or any
`
`other network or external system, etc.) is prohibited while accessing the computer
`
`containing the source code. All persons entering the locked room containing the stand(cid:173)
`
`alone computer(s) must agree to submit to reasonable security measures to ensure they are
`
`not carrying any prohibited items before they will be given access to the stand-alone
`
`computer(s). The producing Party may periodically "check in" on the activities of the
`
`receiving Party' s representatives during any stand-alone computer review and may
`
`visually monitor the activities of the receiving Party's representatives from outside the
`
`room in which the stand-alone computer(s) is located, but only to ensure that no
`
`unauthorized electronic records of the Source Code Material and no information
`
`concerning the Source Code Material are being created or transmitted in any way. The
`
`producing Party must remain at such a distance as to avoid viewing notes or other work
`
`product generated by the receiving Party's representatives and at such a distance to allow
`
`representatives of the receiving Party' s to carry on a quiet conversation without being
`
`overheard by the producing Party. The producing Party may not record (visually, audibly
`
`or by other means) the activities of the receiving Party's representatives.

`
`c.
`
`Source Code Material will be made available for inspection between the hours of 9
`
`a.m. and 5 :00 p.m. (in the time zone where the Source Code Material is made available)
`
`on business days (i.e., weekdays that are not Federal holidays), although the Parties will
`
`be reasonable in accommodating reasonable requests to conduct inspections at other
`
`times;
`
`d.
`
`A list of names of persons who will review Source Code Material on the stand(cid:173)
`
`alone computer(s) will be provided to the producing Party in conjunction with any written
`
`(including email) notice requesting inspection. Prior to the first inspection of any Source
`
`Code Material made available by the Producing Party, the receiving Party shall provide
`
`five (5) days' notice that it wishes to inspect Source Code Material. The receiving Party
`
`shall provide three (3) days' notice prior to any additional inspections. Such notice shall
`
`include the names and titles for every individual from the receiving Party who will attend
`
`the inspection. The producing Party may maintain a daily log of the names of persons who
`
`enter the locked room to view the source code and when they enter and depart. To the
`
`extent practical and reasonable, the Parties agree to accommodate requests for inspection
`
`on a shorter timeframe, particularly when the needs of the case and case schedule require
`
`more immediate access by the receiving Party to the requested Source Code Material.
`
`Similarly, the receiving Party shall make good faith efforts to reasonably accommodate
`
`scheduling limitations identified by the producing Party;
`
`e.
`
`The Parties agree to cooperate in good faith such that maintaining the producing
`
`Party's Source Code Material at the offices of its outside counsel shall not unreasonably
`
`hinder the receiving Party' s ability to efficiently and effectively conduct the prosecution
`
`or defense of this Action, which includes making the Source Code Material available for
`
`10
`
`

`

`Case 1:18-cv-00318-RGA-SRF Document 60 Filed 08/20/19 Page 11 of 39 PageID #: 10980
`
`inspection until the conclusion of expert discovery. A Party may make a good faith
`
`request for additional inspection of Source Code Material after the close of expert
`
`discovery for the limited purpose of rebutting new arguments or positions raised for the
`
`first time by the opposing Party after the close of expert discovery, and such good faith
`
`requests will not be unreasonably withheld.
`
`f.
`
`The producing Party shall provide the receiving Party with information explaining
`
`how to start, log on to, and operate the stand-alone computer(s) in order to access the
`
`produced Source Code Material on the stand-alone computer(s);
`
`g.
`
`The producing Party will produce Source Code Material in computer searchable
`
`format on the stand-alone computer(s) as described above;
`
`h.
`
`Access
`
`to
`
`any one Party's Protected Material designated HIGHLY
`
`CONFIDENTIAL SOURCE CODE shall be limited to outside counsel and up to four (4)
`
`outside consultants or experts6 (i.e., not existing employees or affiliates of a Party or an
`
`affiliate of a Party) retained for the purpose of this litigation and approved to access such
`
`Protected Materials pursuant to paragraph 4(e) above. A receiving Party may include
`
`excerpts of Source Code Material in a pleading, exhibit, expert report, discovery
`
`document, deposition transcript, or other Court document (hereinafter, "Source Code
`
`Documents") only to the extent necessary, provided that the Source Code Documents are
`
`appropriately marked under this Order, restricted to those who are entitled to have access
`
`to them as specified herein, and, if filed with the Court, filed under seal in accordance
`
`with the Court' s rules, procedures and orders;
`
`6 For the purposes of this paragraph, an outside consultant or expert does not include the outside
`consultant's or expert's direct reports and other support personnel.

`1.
`
`To the extent portions of Source Code Material are quoted in a Source Code
`
`Document, either (1) the entire Source Code Document will be stamped and treated as
`
`HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL SOURCE CODE or (2) those pages containing quoted
`
`Source Code Material will be separately stamped and
`
`treated as HIGHLY
`
`CONFIDENTIAL SOURCE CODE. However, for clarity and consistent with paragraph
`
`7, production documents describing how source code operates (for example, architecture
`
`documents, program manuals, process flow descriptions, PowerPoint presentations, etc.)
`
`may not be stamped as HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL SOURCE CODE solely for the
`
`purpose of limiting access of such documents to persons authorized per section 9(g), such
`
`production documents are not themselves considered Source Code Material, and such
`
`production documents should be produced and transmitted to receiving parties via the
`
`same transmission methods as documents designated CONFIDENTIAL or HIGHLY
`
`CONFIDENTIAL - ATTORNEYS' EYES ONLY, and n_ot via paragraph 9(a) of this
`
`Protective Order. To the extent any documents (for example, PowerPoints, Word
`
`documents, architecture documents, etc.) contain lines of source code, the producing Party
`
`may elect to redact only the lines of Source Code in the document and must otherwise
`
`produce the document (including any discussion, analysis or commentary of any Source
`
`Code) in the normal course of discovery. In the event the producing Party elects to redact
`
`Source Code from documents, the non-redacted versions of those documents must be
`
`placed on the stand-alone computer for review by the receiving Party. Further, if the
`
`receiving Party elects to print such non-redacted source code documents from the stand(cid:173)
`
`alone computer, only pages containing source code will count toward any printing
`
`limitations contained herein. Any abuse of this provision to unnecessarily increase the
`
`12

`
`costs ofreview to the receiving Party, may be considered by the Court in any cost shifting
`
`motion. Alternatively, a producing Party may elect to produce the entirety of a document
`
`containing lines of Source Code in the normal course of discovery with a designation of
`
`"HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL SOURCE CODE".
`
`J.
`
`Except as set forth in this paragraph, no copies of Source Code Material shall be
`
`made without prior written consent of the producing Party. The receiving Party may create
`
`an electronic copy or image of limited excerpts of Source Code Material only to the extent
`
`necessary in a pleading, exhibit, expert report, discovery document, deposition transcript,
`
`other Court document, or any drafts of these documents ("SOURCE CODE
`
`DOCUMENTS"). 7 The receiving Party shall only include such excerpts as are reasonably
`
`necessary for the purposes for which such part of the Source Code is used. Images or
`
`copies of Source Code shall not be included in correspondence between the parties
`
`(references to production numbers shall be used instead) and shall be omitted from
`
`pleadings and other papers except to the extent permitted herein. The receiving party may
`
`create an electronic image of a selected portion of the Source Code only when the
`
`electronic file containing such image has been encrypted using commercially reasonable
`
`encryption software including password protection. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
`
`receiving Party may file under seal printed Source Code with the Court via the ECF system
`
`without encryption. The communication and/or disclosure of electronic files containing
`
`any portion of Source Code shall at all times be limited to individuals who are authorized
`
`to see Source Code under the provisions of this Protective Order. Additionally, all
`
`7 Drafts shall only include those excerpts the receiving Party believes will be included in the final
`version.

`
`electronic copies must be labeled "HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL SOURCE CODE." To
`
`the extent portions of source code are quoted in a SOURCE CODE DOCUMENT, either
`
`(1) the entire document will be stamped and treated as HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL
`
`SOURCE CODE or (2) those pages containing quoted Source Code will be separately
`
`bound, and stamped and treated as HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL SOURCE CODE. No
`
`person shall copy, e-mail, transmit, upload, download, print, photograph or otherwise
`
`duplicate any portion of the designated "HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL SOURCE CODE"
`
`material, except that the receiving Party may request paper copies ("Source Code
`
`Printouts") of limited portions of the Source Code Material, but only if and to the extent
`
`reasonably necessary for the preparation of court filings, pleadings, expert reports, or other
`
`papers, or for deposition or trial. The receiving Party shall be permitted to print 1,500
`
`pages total from the stand-alone computer (per producing Party). Furthermore, the
`
`receiving Party may print up to 30 contiguous pages. The receiving Party will only print
`
`material that it believes reasonably necessary to the claims and defenses at issue. If the
`
`receiving Party reasonably believes that it is necessary to print more than set forth by these
`
`limits, the parties shall meet and confer in good faith to resolve the issue. To ensure the
`
`proper pages requested by the receiving Party are printed, the producing Party shall
`
`provide the ability for the receiving Party to save relevant files for printing as PDFs
`
`(preserving the line numbers and formatting using a program such as Notepad++) to a
`
`folder on the source code review computer for printing, or any other similar arrangement
`
`agreed to by the parties. The receiving Party shall not request paper copies for the purposes
`
`ofreviewing the source code other than electronically as set forth in paragraph 9(a) in the
`
`first instance. Within three (3) business days, the producing Party will mail, or within five

`unless objected to as discussed below. At the receiving Party's request, up to three (3)
`
`additional sets, for a total of four sets of printed Source Code Material may be requested
`
`and provided by the producing Party in a timely fashion. Printouts of Source Code
`
`Material may be made only by the producing Party, and such printouts must include (1)
`
`directory path information and filenames from which the Source Code Material came, and
`
`(2) line numbers. For avoidance of doubt, the receiving Party may make copies of Source
`
`Code Material for service to the Court to the extent requested or required by Court or
`
`chamber rules.
`

`
`If the receiving Party's outside counsel, consultants, or experts obtain Source Code
`
`Printouts, the receiving Party shall ensure that such outside counsel, consultants, or
`
`experts keep the Source Code Printouts under their direct control in a secured locked area
`
`in the offices of such outside counsel, consultants, or expert. The receiving Party may also
`
`temporarily keep the Source Code Printouts at: (i) the Court for any proceedings(s)
`
`relating to the Source Code Material, for the dates associated with the proceeding(s); (ii)
`
`the sites where any deposition(s) relating to the Source Code Material are taken, for the
`
`dates associated with the deposition(s); and (iii) if in a secured locked container, any
`
`intermediate location reasonably necessary to transport the Source Code Printouts (e.g., a
`
`hotel prior to a Court proceeding or deposition); and

`
`A producing Party' s Source Code Material may only be delivered by the receiving
`

`
`the receiving Party may choose to transport Source Code Material via courier. If the costs
`
`of courier transport become an undue burden, the receiving Party may (after meeting and
`
`conferring with the producing Party) apply to the Court asking that the costs of the courier
`
`be split with the producing Party. Source Code Material may not be transported or
`
`transmitted over a network of any kind, including a LAN, an intranet, or the Internet.
`
`Source Code Material may only be transported for the purpose of Court proceeding(s) and
`
`filings, expert reports, or deposition(s) or trial, as set forth in paragraph 9(j) above and is
`
`at all times subject to the transport restrictions set forth therein.
`

`
`The producing Party shall install tools that are sufficient for viewing and searching
`
`the Source Code Material produced, on the platform produced, if such tools exist and are
`
`presently used in the ordinary course of the producing Party's business. The receiving
`
`Party' s outside counsel and/or experts may request that other mutually agreeable
`
`commercially available software tools for viewing and searching Source Code Material
`
`be installed on the stand-alone computer, provided, however, that such other software
`
`tools are reasonably necessary for the receiving Party to perform its review of the source
`
`code consistent with all of the protections herein. The receiving Party must provide the
`
`producing Party with the CD, DVD, or drive containing such licensed software tool(s) at
`
`least three (3) business days in advance of the date upon which the receiving Party wishes
`
`to have the additional software tools available for use on the stand-alone computer. To the
`
`extent any requested commercially available software tool(s) can be downloaded from the
`
`Internet, the receiving Party will provide the producing Party with a link or URL at least
`
`three (3) business days in advance of the date upon which the receiving Party wishes to
`
`have the additional software tools available for use on the stand-alone computer.
