Bankruptcy is a financial play and is prior to and different from actual
termination of the legal existance at the secretary of state.
Until then could sue for breach of contract/policy and possibly be
awarded injunction against sale, proceeds from sale as damages, etc.
Since the value of it has at that point been zeroed, then, as with the
subsequent legal status, the seeming ethical contract action is that
remaining data should vaporize.

Another perspective... the IA and similar projects.

Depends on your contract with the CA.
