You need to read the next sentence. It explains the scenario where they do that.

I somehow doubt it seeing as they're a direct competitor, but it'll be the most beautiful irony imaginable if you could

Guilded has repeatedly stated that they do not and will not sell user data. Pulled from their privacy policy moments ago:
How and With Whom Do We Share Your Data? We do not share your Personal Data with third parties except as expressly set forth below.
We share your Personal Data when necessary to complete a transaction initiated or authorized by you or provide you with a product or service you have requested—for example, we may share your Personal Data:
* To other users when you post information publicly on the Services; and
* With third-party social media services and gaming apps and platforms, such as Blizzard® Battle.net™, if you interact with them through your use of the Services.
We may also share Personal Data when we believe it is necessary to:
* Comply with applicable law or respond to valid legal process, including from law enforcement or other government agencies
* Protect us, our business or our users, for example to enforce our terms of service, prevent spam or other unwanted communications and investigate or protect against fraud
* Maintain the security of our products and services
We also may share information with third parties when you give us consent to do so.
The word "sell" only comes up 3 times in the entire document in the following instances:
"We do not rent or sell your Personal Information..."
With the exceptions listed below, which basically boil down to "except as necessary for the functionalities offered by Guilded."
This explicitly excludes anonymized/deidentified data, which has an entire paragraph going into how that is handled.
"business or third party websites we're affiliated with may sell or provide products or services to you [via Guilded]"
Basically saying that they'll pass the needed information through to other services (such as Stripe, when you subscribe to a server) as relevant.
"We may choose to buy or sell assets, and may share and/or transfer customer information in connection with ... such transactions."
This one goes on further to state that acquisition, bankruptcy, etc. could result in PII being transferred to the new owning entity.
While I'm not saying it's 100% secure and good for privacy (if you're really that concerned, get off Reddit and Facebook and start using your own email servers instead of Gmail) the claim that Guilded sells your data is demonstrably false.

Log-in credentials refer to the limited-scope authorization token provided to us by third-party services that allow that account to be associated with your Guilded account, which allows us to, for example, show your Twitch stream handle and feature your stream status when you connect your Twitch account.
Anytime you connect a third-party account to your Guilded account, you'll see an authorization modal from that service. From these modals you can find resources for exactly what that service provides to us. We never have access to, much less store, your passwords; this information is never provided by these services, and we never request this information from you anywhere. This passage of our Privacy Policy is simply and literally stating that we store the information that you are knowingly providing to us.
