Compare across platforms →Given that Inflection AI has already undergone significant corporate restructuring (with key personnel and assets having moved to Microsoft), this clause creates a concrete and near-term risk that user data could be transferred to a new entity with different privacy practices.
REGULATORY FRAMEWORK: Corporate transaction data transfers implicate GDPR Art. 6(1)(f) (legitimate interests), Art. 13/14 (transparency obligations), and potentially Art. 49 (transfers to third countries if the acquirer is non-EU). Under CCPA/CPRA, consumers retain rights to know and delete even after a business transfer. FTC Act Section 5 prohibits retroactive material changes to privacy terms without adequate notice and consent, as established in the FTC's enforcement action against Facebook (2012) and subsequent guidance. The FTC's 2014 RadioShack bankruptcy enforcement action established that customer data cannot be transferred to acquirers in violation of original privacy promises.
