looking at the third one it does seem like pricing did fall under confidential data but that was after the database with those info was directly accessed

> Trial court did not err in finding the plaintiff took reasonable steps under the circumstances to maintain the secrecy of its trade secrets, including internal customer and pricing information, as required by MUTSA, CL § 11-1201(e)(2), where the plaintiff restricted access to the information on a company database; an employee handbook prohibited employees from removing sensitive categories of information

This seems very different from me getting a quote from you and then at a bar saying yeah XYZ enterprise plan costs $42,000/year

If the price list is provided under NDA, that could certainly be a reasonable effort to maintain its secrecy. It should be unsurprising that NDAs are canonical examples of such efforts. The fact that any given case may be distinguishable on some issue from our hypothetical fact pattern doesn’t mean much.
