The provision establishes the operational framework for Discord's advertising monetization model by defining which data categories flow to advertising partners and the conditions under which users can restrict those transfers. This structure determines the scope of data sharing integral to the service's advertising infrastructure.
Interpretive note: The specific advertising partners are not enumerated in the reviewed text, and the precise scope of data shared and the lawful basis applied may vary by jurisdiction and product feature.
Users operate under terms that authorize sharing of device identifiers, IP address, and activity data with advertising partners unless the user affirmatively configures privacy settings to opt out of certain advertising uses. The mechanism places the burden of restriction on user action rather than requiring affirmative consent before initial sharing.
