"We may disclose or transfer your Personal Data to a third party in the event of any merger, acquisition, sale of assets or business, or similar transaction (including a potential transaction), or in the event of bankruptcy, insolvency, or reorganization.— Excerpt from Cerebras's Cerebras Privacy Policy
REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Business transfer clauses are standard in US commercial privacy policies and are generally recognized under CCPA as a permissible disclosure category. GDPR requires that any transfer to a successor entity maintain an adequate level of data protection and that data subjects be informed of material changes to processing; a transfer in the context of an acquisition may require a new or updated privacy notice. The FTC has historically scrutinized acquisitions where customer data is a primary asset to assess whether privacy commitments made to consumers are honored post-transaction. GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Low to Medium. The clause is standard in US commercial practice but may require additional procedural steps for GDPR-compliant operators, including assessment of the successor entity's data protection posture and notification obligations to data subjects. JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU and UK users face the greatest exposure because GDPR imposes obligations on both the transferring and receiving entity in an acquisition. California users retain rights under CCPA even after a transfer, but practical enforcement depends on the successor's compliance posture. Cross-border transfers in an acquisition context may require transfer impact assessments. CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Enterprise customers with data processing agreements with Cerebras should assess whether those agreements address change-of-control scenarios and include protections that survive a business transfer. Due diligence in any M&A involving Cerebras should include review of customer data commitments and applicable regulatory obligations. COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Legal teams should ensure that any business transfer scenario triggers a review of outstanding data subject rights requests, active consent mechanisms, and jurisdictional notification obligations before or promptly after a transfer is completed.
