Your Training Manager may also disclose this information to third parties interested in whether your company has its employees trained successfully. Such disclosures are at the sole discretion of your company, and we do not have any liability for such disclosures.
Finally, if we sold or transferred our business, we would transfer your PII to the purchaser as appropriate and might also retain a copy of your PII for any new business ventures we would start.
