Article 12     A user applicant shall give due consideration to the accuracy of any trading information that it has independently processed for added value, and shall bear legal liability for any errors in its content.
    Where trading information has been processed by a user applicant pursuant to the preceding paragraph, the page display shall conspicuously indicate the user applicant's name or a service mark identifying the user applicant, along with related footnotes; the user applicant shall bear legal liability for the page content.
    When transmitting or broadcasting trading information, a user applicant shall have adequate software and hardware technology to prevent unauthorized use or plagiarism of the information, or connection to other systems.
Article 14     Except where otherwise approved by the TWSE, a user applicant shall not lease, sell, or transfer the TWSE's trading information to any other person, nor relay the information in any manner to any other place.
    Transmission standards for any transmission by user applicants not made over leased data lines or dial-up lines shall be separately prescribed by the TWSE.
