Ask HN: Why can't I disclose how many options my last start up paid me?

The company I just left raised $71 million at $500 million valuation. This is public data on crunchbase.

But the company lawyer says the amount of options I received and their worth is proprietary information and cannot be shared. I don't understand how this can harm the company. Can someone please enlighten me?

I should be able to share how much or how little I got paid.
