Egnyte shares your personal data with vendors that help run its business, and potentially with acquiring companies if Egnyte is sold or merges with another company.
This analysis describes what Egnyte's agreement states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability and practical outcomes may vary by jurisdiction, enforcement context, and individual circumstances. Read our methodology
The corporate transaction carve-out means your personal data could be transferred to a new company if Egnyte is acquired, and that new company's privacy practices may differ from Egnyte's current policy.
Interpretive note: The exact verbatim language of the corporate transaction and subprocessor sharing provisions was partially reconstructed from available document context; the full enumeration of sharing categories may vary in the complete document.
Your personal data may be transferred to an acquiring company in the event of a merger or acquisition; this could result in your data being subject to different privacy practices, and you may not be notified before the transfer occurs.

"We may share your personal information with third parties in the following circumstances: with service providers who perform services on our behalf, such as cloud hosting, analytics, email delivery, and customer support; with business partners with your consent; in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or substantially all of our assets; and when required by law or to respond to legal process.— Excerpt from Egnyte's Egnyte Privacy Policy
(1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Third-party data sharing engages GDPR Article 28 for processor relationships, Article 6 lawful bases for controller-to-controller transfers, and CCPA/CPRA service provider and third-party disclosure requirements. Corporate transaction transfers are permitted under GDPR provided appropriate safeguards are maintained; asset purchasers must honor existing privacy commitments or obtain fresh consent. The FTC has taken enforcement action against companies that failed to honor privacy policies post-acquisition. (2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The corporate transaction carve-out is standard language but creates a practical gap in data subject protections if an acquirer materially changes privacy practices. The breadth of service provider sharing (cloud hosting, analytics, email, support) is operationally necessary and typical for SaaS providers but requires accurate subprocessor disclosures. (3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU/EEA data subjects retain rights regardless of corporate transaction; GDPR requires that any acquirer honor existing data subject rights. California residents have CPRA rights that survive corporate transactions. The adequacy of subprocessor disclosures is assessed more strictly in EU jurisdictions. (4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Enterprise customers should ensure their DPA includes a current and maintained subprocessor list with change notification rights. The corporate transaction provision should be reviewed to confirm it requires the acquirer to maintain equivalent data protection obligations. Indemnification provisions for post-transaction privacy failures may require specific contract drafting. (5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Legal teams should request Egnyte's subprocessor list and confirm notification procedures for subprocessor changes. The corporate transaction language should be assessed against the enterprise DPA to confirm it does not create a gap in processor obligations upon change of control.
