Managed ipad
I accidentally signed in my personal Apple account on my company managed IPad, I was wondering if my personal Apple ID information like email address or real address would be shared with my company?
Thanks

If your iPad is "supervised" or centrally managed by an MDM platform - as is common with Business/Enterprise owned devices - you would be wise to assume that anything and everything that you do is potentially monitored by, and is visible to, your employer.
If you are signed-in to iCloud with your own AppleID, any information synchronised with your AppleID account may now be present on your business device.
If you are concerned for your privacy, you would be best advised to keep your work and private activities entirely separate - and use different devices for each.
While you will not be able to prevent information already synchronised from iCloud having already been seen by your employer, you can sign-out from your AppleID. When you do so, you will be presented with the opportunity to "save a local copy" of your data on the device. If you decline, all information already downloaded/syncronised from iCloud will be deleted from the iPad during the sign-out process.
When you subsequently sign-in using your business credentials, any data still present on the iPad will be merged with the AppleID account that you next use to sign-in to iCloud. If you declined to keep a local copy of your AppleID data when previously signing-out from iCloud, your data will not be present and will therefore not be merged. By extension, if you elected to keep a local copy of your data, this will be merged.
You hopefully now have sufficient information with which to make a decision as to how you might best proceed.
