I don't like the disclosure to a *prospective* buyer or seller. An actual
buyer or seller, maybe. But prospective? No way.

Subject: [data-protection] DP Clause in Contract Agreement
A bit of Monday morning advice please.
We are entering into an agreement with a supplier of personal security
devices for lone workers. One of the Data Protection clauses in the
agreement states that ".... will carry out the processing (as defined by
the Act) of personal data transmitted by or on behalf of the client only
to the extent necessary for the provision of the services and will not
divulge the whole or any part of the personal data to any person
except:...If ...... sells or buys any business or assets, in which case it
may disclose personal data to the prospective seller or buyer of such
business or assets."
Should we allow this clause? My own view is that it is ok provided the
data subjects are made aware of what might happen to their personal data
and that it will be used for the same purpose.
Thanks in advance.
Julie
