Affiliate sharing may involve transfers to another country

An affiliate may help a controller carry out processing
Personal information may be shared with a WBD affiliate so it can help the controller carry out some processing. This describes an assistance purpose; it does not say every affiliate transfer is solely for that purpose. The next provision separately describes analytics, marketing and other purposes in which the receiving affiliate also becomes a controller.

Personal information may be shared so the Warner Bros. Discovery affiliate can help the controller carry out some of the processing.
We also share information with Warner Bros. Discovery affiliates for analytics, marketing, and other purposes. The affiliate that receives the personal information will then also become a controller and will make decisions relating to the information.
Cross-references
contrast (model-proposed): Affiliates receiving information for analytics, marketing and other purposes also become controllers — Affiliate assistance to an existing controller and sharing for analytics, marketing and other purposes describe different roles. For the latter sharing the receiving affiliate also becomes a controller. The assistance sentence is not a sole-purpose limit on all affiliate sharing.
Affiliates receiving information for analytics, marketing and other purposes also become controllers
WBD says it also shares information with affiliates for analytics, marketing and other purposes. The receiving affiliate then also becomes a controller and makes decisions relating to the information. This adds a decision-making role to the affiliate for that sharing; the wording does not enumerate or limit the other purposes. It is distinct from merely helping the existing controller carry out processing.
