Social Plug-Ins
POPULAR VILLAS use its Social Media Plug-Ins sites ("plugins") from social networks Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
The sites POPULARVILLAS.CO.UK, POPULARVILLAS.COM and POPULARVILLAS.PT use social plugins ("plugins") of social network facebook.com, operated by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA ("Facebook"). These plugins are marked with the Facebook logo.
If the customer accesses a POPULAR VILLAS website that contains one of these plug-ins, the client's browser will establish a direct connection with Facebook's servers. Facebook transmits the content of the plug-in directly to the client's browser, which is integrated into the site.
The plug-in integration provides Facebook.com with the information that the customer has accessed to the corresponding page of the POPULAR VILLAS website. If the customer is logged in to Facebook, Facebook can assign the customer's visit to the Facebook account on Facebook.
If the client interacts with the plugins, for example, using the "like" button or leaving a comment, the browser transmits the corresponding information directly to Facebook, where it is stored. The purpose and scope of data collection, the subsequent processing and use of the data by Facebook, as well as the respective rights and settings available to customers to protect their privacy, can be found in Facebook's privacy policies.
If the customer does not want Facebook to collect data in the aforementioned way, the customer must end their session on Facebook before visiting the POPULAR VILLAS website.
POPULAR VILLAS use the plug-ins of Twitter Inc., 795 Folsom St., Suite 600, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA (hereinafter referred to as "Twitter"). These are recognized by the Twitter logo, a blue bird on a light background.
By including the "Tweet" button, Twitter receives the information that has accessed the corresponding page of our site. If you're signed in to Twitter, Twitter can assign the visit to your Twitter account.
When you select the Tweet button, Twitter establishes a direct link to the Twitter server. If you're signed in to Twitter, you can "tweet" our link directly.
For more information on the purpose and processing of your data collection, and the subsequent use of the data by Twitter, see Twitter's privacy information at: https://twitter.com/en/privacy
POPULAR VILLAS use the Instagram plug-ins, owned by Facebook, Inc, USA (hereinafter referred to as "Instagram"). These are recognized by the Instagram logo.
By including the "Instagram" button, Instagram receives the information that has accessed the corresponding page of our site. If you are logged in to Instagram, Instagram can assign the visit to your Instagram account.
When you select the Instagram button, Instagram establishes a direct connection to the Instagram server. If you are logged in to Instagram, you can directly access our link.
