The updated Privacy Statement now authorizes Palantir to disclose personal data to promotional code partners who may then contact you if you sign up for a Palantir service using their code. This establishes a new third-party contact pathway not previously disclosed in the policy. The terms do not specify how frequently partners may contact you, what data is included in the disclosure, or whether you can opt out of partner contact after signing up.
