Can information be transfered via entaglement?

[Viral Titan]

I've been reading many articles on entangled particles lately and I have come across many pieces of conflicting data. The primary question I have is can any information be transferred between entangled particles, and if so, could we use entanglement as a method of sending information?

That is not possible, unambiguously. Whenever a particle in a superposition of states observed, it goes into a random state from the possibilities. So the information "generated" is random. There are a number of formal theorems that support this.

Thank you, from what I understood that was the case, making sure I wasn't missing something.
