  • Business Transfer. If Casect chooses to buy or sell assets, user information is typically one of the transferred business assets.

Any acquirer of Casect or its assets may continue to use the Personal Information as set forth in this policy
Retention. Casect retains Personal Data for as long as Subscriber has an open account with Casect or as otherwise necessary to provide the Platform and improve it for all users.
