We offer social sharing features that let you share content or actions you take on our Site with other media. Your use of these features enables the sharing of certain information with your friends or the public, depending on the settings you establish with the third party that provides the social sharing feature.

​
The Site displays some linked content via “embeds.” For example, embeds that link to YouTube or Instagram may load the linked videos or pictures within the Site directly from those services to your device so you don’t have to leave the Site to see it.

As a result, embedded content is not covered by this Privacy Policy but by the policies of the service from which the content is embedded.
​
Email addresses collected for email subscriptions are never used for anything besides sending post notification emails. These email addresses will not be sold to third parties or distributed to any third parties except to Wix, and except for the winners of contests and giveaways, or if a post calls out a specific exclusion to this Policy.
