Equitable Relief.
Each party acknowledges that a breach by the other party of any confidentiality or proprietary rights provision of the Service Terms of Use may cause the non-breaching party irreparable damage, for which the award of damages would not be adequate compensation. Consequently, the non-breaching party may institute an action to enjoin the breaching party from any acts in violation of those provisions, which remedy shall be cumulative and not exclusive, and a party may seek the entry of an injunction enjoining any breach or threatened breach of those provisions, in addition to any other relief to which the non-breaching party may be entitled at law or in equity; provided, however, that, Customer shall not be entitled to any injunctive relief that might materially interfere with the operation of the Platform or the Services. Except as set forth in this Section 11 (f), Customer is limited to claims for money damages.
