In some cases, we may buy or sell assets or businesses. In these types of transactions, user information is typically one of the business assets that is transferred. CY may disclose personal information to a third party in the event of any reorganization, merger, sale, joint venture, assignment, transfer, or other disposition of all or any portion of our business, assets, or stock (including in connection with any bankruptcy or similar proceedings).

We have implemented organizational, technical, and administrative measures to protect personal data within our organization, including security controls to prevent unauthorized access to our systems.
