Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This provision authorizes the transfer of your personal data to an acquiring entity in a corporate transaction, with post-transaction notification rather than prior consent as the stated mechanism for informing users of changes.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

In a merger or acquisition, personal data including account information, usage history, and content may be transferred to a new corporate owner. The policy states Atlassian will provide notification and describe choices available, but does not guarantee that the acquiring entity will maintain identical data practices.
