            &nbsp;</h1>
			<blockquote>
				<p>For the purposes of this policy, the term &quot;confidential data&quot; 
				refers to private company information or other private 
				organizational information not intended to be disclosed outside 
				the context of the company or organization responsible for that 
				information.</p>
				<p>Unicode, Inc. is a multi-member consortium which uses 
				electronic mail as one of its primary means of information 
				interchange. It is possible that there will be occasions that 
				some confidential data makes its way by mistake into 
				Consortium documents prepared or distributed electronically. To 
				deal with this situation, it is the policy of the Consortium 
				that:</p>
				<ul>
					<li>All submissions, either in hard copy or in electronic 
					form, should be reviewed by the submitter to ensure that 
					they contain no&nbsp; confidential data; furthermore, it is the 
					responsibility of the submitter, and not of Unicode, Inc., 
					to ensure that this review takes place. 
					</li>
					<li>If Unicode Officers are alerted by members or observers 
					that&nbsp; confidential data is found in Unicode documents or 
					electronic information, the Officers of the Consortium shall 
					remove that data from all official Unicode records and files 
					as soon as possible. 
					</li>
					<li>Consortium members and observers who obtain copies of 
					documents which contain&nbsp; confidential data, or information 
					that Unicode has identified as confidential, shall 
					refrain from actions which would further disseminate such 
					data, and shall notify an Officer of Unicode, Inc., so that 
					the Consortium can take appropriate action to remove such 
					data from official Unicode records and files. </li>
				</ul>

              <td class="sidebar">To be considered&nbsp;confidential data under 
				this policy, the data must be of an inherently private or 
				confidential nature, such as copies of internal business 
				memoranda or e-mail, design specifications, client or customer 
				data or the like. The mere presence of an e-mail signature or 
				similar device claiming confidential status is not sufficient.</td>
            </tr>
          </table>

				<p>Anyone who knowingly disseminates&nbsp;confidential data found 
				in Unicode electronic mail or other documents shall be in direct 
				violation of this policy of Unicode, Inc. Appropriate actions 
				may be taken by the Officers of Unicode, Inc. to remediate such 
				violations. These actions may include, but are not limited to: 
				termination of membership in the Consortium (requires consent of 
				Board of Directors) and the banning of anyone from Unicode 
				activities.</p>
