Before you do any development, ask legal for a written exclusion for your specific project.

Do not rely on the fact it may not apply, if your idea generates millions, you can be certain they'll manage to draw a connection.

If they can't/won't provide one, you either quit and work on it, or don't.

What they can't seize from you is your thoughts, unless again you're silly enough to begin development without doing the above.
