"If monday.com is involved in a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, your personal data may be transferred. We will provide notice before your personal data is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.— Excerpt from Monday.com's Monday.com Privacy Policy
(1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Business transfers involving personal data engage GDPR Article 6 (lawful basis for the transfer to a new controller), CCPA/CPRA (which requires disclosure of business transfer as a purpose for data collection), and FTC Act Section 5 (material retroactive changes to privacy policies). The FTC's guidance on business transfers and privacy commitments is relevant, particularly the principle that acquired companies must honor pre-existing privacy commitments. (2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Low to Medium. The commitment to provide notice before the transfer occurs is a meaningful protection. However, the policy does not state that users will have an opt-out right prior to the transfer, and the notice may be provided with limited lead time. For enterprise customers, the business transfer clause in the DPA should address what protections apply to customer data during a change of control event. (3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: GDPR-regulated users have the right to receive notice of a new controller and to understand the legal basis for continued processing. UK GDPR imposes equivalent requirements. California CPRA requires disclosure of business transfers as a category of disclosure in the privacy notice. Organizations in heavily regulated sectors should evaluate whether a change of control triggers notification obligations to their own regulators. (4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Enterprise agreements should include change of control provisions that address data portability, termination rights, and DPA continuity in the event of an acquisition. Procurement teams should confirm that a qualifying exit clause exists if monday.com is acquired by a competitor or an entity with incompatible data practices. (5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Organizations should review their vendor contracts with monday.com for change of control provisions and assess whether the existing DPA would remain effective under a new corporate parent. If an acquisition occurs, a new DPIA and vendor reassessment should be triggered.
