ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

The provision does not identify the third parties receiving personal data, does not describe the contractual mechanism through which the stated obligation is enforced, and does not specify which categories of personal data are shared with which categories of third parties. This structure may be insufficient to satisfy GDPR processor agreement requirements or CCPA disclosure obligations for categories of third parties to whom personal information is disclosed.

⚠

Interpretive note: The contractual mechanism enforcing the stated third-party obligation is not described, and the identity and number of third parties receiving personal data are not disclosed.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Under this clause, personal information collected by Modal Labs is accessible to unidentified third-party companies and individuals engaged for service-related purposes, with no enumeration of those third parties or the specific data categories shared with each.
