I see your point but as long as the

1. You only get notifications for numbers you sign up to watch

2. The webhook only notifies me that <number> will be transferred <at> (using some data format)

then it shouldn't be a problem, should it?

I think it would be ok as long as it didn't tell you what the person's new number is or who now owns <number> if it gets reassigned.

Ok, then we agree :-)

We just wanted to know so that we wouldn't charge the new owner for things the old owner ordered etc.
