The Services may implement widgets, tools, or applications provided by social media platforms and the Services may otherwise allow for interaction, integration, or content sharing with third-party social media platforms and companies. We may be required to implement cookies, plug-ins, and APIs provided by those social media platforms in order to facilitate those communications and features. By choosing to use any third-party social media platform or choosing to share content or communications with any social media platform, you allow us to share information with the designated social media platform. Interactions, integrations, and content sharing with a social media platform and their features may require or allow the social media company to collect information from or about you, whether through cookies, registration information, or otherwise. Social media companies may track your online activity even when you do not choose to interact with the social media platform or its widgets or other features. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any social media platform that you use or visit in connection with the Services, as those platforms’ respective privacy policies will govern their collection, use, and disclosure of information they collect from you. We cannot control any policies or terms of such third party platform. As a result, we cannot be responsible for any use or disclosure of your information or content by third-party platforms, which you use at your own risk.
The Services may also use the advertising services and networks offered by social media platforms to deliver advertising content. Use of these services requires social media platforms to implement cookies or pixel tags to deliver ads to you while you are logged into the applicable social media platform.
If you do not want social media platforms to collect information relating to you via the Services or to link information collected via the Services to your social media accounts, we suggest that you: (a) do not connect to or share information with social media platforms using the Services; (b) hide social media platform plug-ins using an ad blocker; (c) always log off completely from social media platforms before visiting the Services or other websites and delete all related cookies; and, (d) where the option is made available by a social media platform, disable the advertising services and networks operated by that platform. For example, you may opt out of Twitter’s interest-based advertising by notifying Twitter through one of the methods it describes here. You hereby acknowledge that Company makes no guarantee that exercising the foregoing options is guaranteed to prevent applicable social media platforms from tracking you and, further, you acknowledge that Company is not responsible for a social media platform’s tracking of you.
