Facebook integration

Airbit.com integrates different connections to the social network Facebook, 1601 South California Avenue, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA. They are used to share activities on Facebook and to get Facebook information about Airbit.com users. An overview of Facebook integrations and social plugins can be found here: developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins .

When users enable the Facebook connection in their settings, the Facebook integration establishes a connection between a user's device and the Facebook server. Thereby, Airbit.com receives information about the user.

When users invite friends via Facebook, the Facebook integration establishes a connection between a user's device and the Facebook server. That allows the user to gain information about his or her friends via Airbit.com. Airbit.com as the provider of Airbit.com does not receive any of this information.

When users share their information on Facebook and when they invite friends via Facebook, the Facebook integration establishes a connection between a user's device and the Facebook server. Thereby, the user links information on Airbit.com to his or her Facebook account. That allows Facebook to correlate a user's usage of Airbit.com with the corresponding user's Facebook account. Airbit.com as the provider of Airbit.com does not have any knowledge of the future data usage by Facebook. Users can find more information on that issue in the privacy policy of Facebook at: www.facebook.com/about/privacy.

Users have to actively enable the Facebook connection in their Settings in order to be able to share information on Facebook and invite friends via Facebook. If users do not want Facebook to gain information on their Airbit.com usage or if they don't want Airbit.com to gain information about them via Facebook, they should leave the Facebook integration disabled as it is in the default settings. Once enabled, users can disable the Facebook connection again in their Settings at any time.

By activating the Facebook connection in his or her settings, the user explicitly consents to the information exchange described in this section. Any data arising from the use of Facebook will be located outside the EEA and subject to transmissions between the EEA and elsewhere.
