Our Platform may offer social sharing features and other integrated tools (such as the Facebook “Like” button), which allow you to share actions taken on our Platform with other media, and vice versa. The use of such features enables the sharing of information with your friends or the public, depending on the settings you establish with the entity that provides the social sharing feature. For more information about the purpose and scope of data collection and processing in connection with social sharing features, please visit the privacy policies of those third party entities that provide these features to you. In addition, our apps permit you to share them with your friends by sending an invitation. Although our apps are designed to capture the contact information of those friends to whom you send an invitation, we will only retain such information if you affirmatively check the box which allows us to do so. If you elect not to check the box, we will delete your friend’s contact information within 24 hours after the invitation has been sent.

You have the ability to control the collection and use of your geo-location information at all times. We will not allow third parties to access this information without your opt-in consent, and you may disable location-based services at any time by adjusting the settings of your mobile device.
