3.3. Community plug-ins

Our web service uses community plug-ins, such as the Like or Share buttons for Facebook, Twitter or Instagram.

Community plug-in services can collect data on the user’s visits in compliance with their privacy policy. The services in question do not cede the data collected to Universal Players Global Oy, unless they have a separate approval from the user.
