Meanwhile, on p 389 of the Ferengi print

In a seemingly non-controversial section of its privacy policy, Evernote reserves the right to disclose all of your information "...in connection with the sale or reorganization of all or part of our business, as permitted by applicable law." Successor companies, of course, would not be bound by Evernote's TOS or other policies.

This is, of course, completely typical of all cloud services; but it's a reminder that putting your data in a cloud service is like telling someone a secret. Once you have "shared" it, you no longer have any control over what they do with it.
