Appellant’s Own Release of Product Capabilities Undermines Claim Government Breached Technical Data Rights Clause by Publicly Sharing General Information; ASBCA Nos. 57784, Appeals of CANVS Corporation

Claim of breach of contract arguing the government improperly released the appellant’s proprietary data to the public is denied, where the allegedly proprietary data was available on the appellant’s website or had otherwise been shared publicly, where the appellant failed to demonstrate any causative link between the release of the information and the alleged loss of potential income, and where the appellant was aware of the release of the data but did not contact the government about the alleged impropriety until it filed its breach of contract claim six years after the purported leak.
