This provision establishes that user data may be transferred to a new entity following a corporate transaction, with the stated condition that the recipient agrees to the existing policy terms. The practical enforceability of that condition in insolvency or acquisition scenarios may depend on contractual and jurisdictional factors not addressed in the policy.
Interpretive note: The enforceability of the policy adherence condition on an acquirer in bankruptcy or distressed sale scenarios depends on contractual and jurisdictional factors not addressed in the policy text.
The updated policy now explicitly recognizes eight distinct data subject rights, including rights to access, correct, delete, restrict processing, receive data in portable format, object to processing, withdraw consent, and lodge complaints with regulators. Previously, ClickUp described privacy controls through general opt-out options and data access procedures without formal legal framing. The revised language aligns with GDPR and similar data protection frameworks, providing clearer legal reference points for how users may exercise control over their personal data. You can exercise these rights by contacting ClickUp's support team.
