Links to Third-Party Sites and Social Media Plug-ins This Privacy Notice does not apply to The Services that do not link to this Privacy Notice, or to third-party web sites to which The Services may link. The Services may use social media plug-ins (e.g., the Facebook “Like” button, “Share to Twitter” button) to enable you to easily share information with others. When you visit The Services, the operator of the social plug-in can place a cookie on your computer or other electronic device that enables that operator to recognise individuals who have previously visited our Site. If you are logged into the social media web site (e.g., Facebook, Twitter) while browsing on The Services, the social media plug-in allows that social media web site to receive information that you have visited The Services. The social media plug-in also allows the social media web site to share information about your activities on our The Services with other users of their social media web site. These sharing settings are managed by the social media web site and governed by its privacy policy.
