This provision permits disclosure of user data to third parties at the due diligence and negotiation stage of a corporate transaction, not only upon completion, which means user data may be accessed by potential but ultimately unsuccessful acquirers. The provision covers partial asset transfers as well as full acquisitions.
The updated policy organizes personal data collection into specific categories: registration data (name, email, phone), content created (code, files, prompts), collaboration data (teams, workspaces, permissions), usage logs (pages viewed, searches, interactions), communications (messages, attachments), payment data (card details, billing address, subscription type, collected by third-party processors), device data (IP address, browser type, operating system, device identifiers), and general location inference from IP address (with explicit statement that precise location requires consent). The policy states it 'may collect certain Personal Data' but does not materially expand the types of data collection beyond the prior version's framework. The removal of the explicit Data Processing Agreement reference may affect how EU/UK/Switzerland users exercise data rights, though the policy now cross-references the Terms of Service and indicates DPA compliance may be addressed elsewhere.
