Our website includes social sharing buttons that allow you to share content with your networks on various social media platforms. These features are designed to enhance your experience by making it easy to distribute articles, posts, or other materials you find valuable.

When you use these sharing options, the following occurs to ensure functionality and compliance with privacy regulations like the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR):

• Data Collection and Transmission: Clicking a share button may transmit limited information about the shared content (such as the page URL and title) directly to the respective social media platform. This enables the platform to generate a preview or post on your behalf. No personal data from you is collected or stored by our site in this process unless you explicitly interact further (e.g., logging in to the platform).
• Cookies and Tracking: These buttons may set third-party cookies on your device to facilitate sharing, track the action for analytics (e.g., share counts), and personalize content on the social platform. Cookies help remember your preferences but do not access unrelated data on our site. Share counts displayed on buttons are aggregated and anonymized.
• Your Privacy Rights: We do not sell or share your personal data collected via these features with third parties beyond what’s necessary for the sharing functionality. Under GDPR (for EU users) and similar laws, you have the right to access, rectify, or delete any related data we hold, though minimal data is retained on our end. If the social platform processes your data post-sharing, their privacy policy applies.
• Consent and Controls: By using the sharing buttons, you consent to the minimal data transmission described. You can manage or withdraw consent via your browser settings (e.g., blocking third-party cookies) or by adjusting privacy options on the social platforms. For EU visitors, our cookie consent banner (if applicable) informs you of these third-party tools.

For more details on how social platforms handle shared data, please review their respective privacy policies (linked on the share buttons where available). If you have questions about our sharing practices, contact us at [privacy@snerdey.com]. We regularly review these features to align with evolving privacy standards.
