ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

Individual users acting on behalf of an organization do not own the accounts they use; ownership and control rests with the organization, which may alter or restrict the user's access.

Interpretive note: The excerpt does not define what 'certain actions' the organization may take, leaving the scope of organizational control over user access indeterminate.
