Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

User information may be transmitted to third-party advertising platforms, though Discord qualifies the scope of that sharing as limited.

Interpretive note: The clause does not define what constitutes 'limited information', leaving meaningful ambiguity about the actual scope of data shared with advertising platforms.
