The

the
cookies,

that
we
use
may
change
from

the
information
we
receive
when
you
visit
a
site
with
a
social
plugin.
When
might
Facebook
place
cookies
on
my
machine?
Facebook
may
place
cookies
when
you
visit
us
using
a
browser
or
device
that
permits
the
placement
of
cookies.
Your
browser
or
device
may
allow
you
to
block
these
technologies,
but
you
may
not
be
able
to
use
some
features
on
Facebook
if
you
block
them.
When
might
Facebook
read
the
cookies
on
my
machine?
The
way
web
browsers
work
is
to
send
any
cookies
for
a
particular
web
domain,
such
as
facebook.com,
to
the
website
each
time
a
machine
with
those
cookies
accesses
content
served
from
that
domain.
This
means
that
any
facebook.com
cookies
will
be
sent
to
Facebook
when
any
page
is
accessed
at
facebook.com.
It
also
means
that
these
cookies
are
sent
to
Facebook
when
someone
accesses
a
third
party
website
that
has
a
connection
to
facebook.com,
like
through
one
of
our
plugins.
Your
browser
or
device
may
allow
you
to
block
these
technologies,
but
you
may
not
be
able
to
use
some
features
on
Facebook
if
you
block
them.
What
are
pixels
and
how
does
Facebook
use
pixels?
Pixels
are
small
blocks
of
code
on
a
webpage
that
allow
websites
to
do
things
like
read
and
place
cookies.
The
resulting
connection
can
include
information
such
as
the
user’s
IP
address,
the
time
the
user
viewed
the
pixel,
the
type
of
browser
being
used,
and
will
automatically
send
information
from
the
cookies
placed
by
the
service
responsible
for
the
pixel.
We
use
pixels
to
customize
your
experience
and
learn
about
how
people
use
products
and
services.
For
example,
we
can
use
pixels
to
see
that
a
person
using
a
certain
browser
saw
an
ad
on
Facebook
and
also
bought
a
product
from
that
advertiser.
This
helps
us
show
advertisers
that
the
ads
they
run
on
Facebook
are
effective.
What
is
local
storage
and
how
does
Facebook
use
local
storage?
Local
storage
is
an
industry-‐standard
technology
that
allows
a
website
or
app
to
store
and
retrieve
data
on
a
person’s
computer,
mobile
phone,
or
other
device.
Some
examples
include
device
or
HTML5
local
storage
and
caching.
Most
web
browsers
offer
settings
for
you
to
control
whether
or
not
to
allow
local
storage.
We
use
local
storage
to
understand
and
improve
how
our
products
and
services
perform
and
to
enable
certain
features.
For
example,
we
may
store
certain
parts
of
the
Facebook
website
on
your
device
so
that
those
pages
load
faster
the
next
time
you
visit
them.
Local
storage
also
allows
us
to
provide
certain
3
services
to
someone
who
doesn’t
have
access
to
the
internet.
For
example,
you
can
read
and
compose
messages
in
the
Facebook
Messenger
app
when
you’re
offline
because
we
store
those
messages
locally
on
your
device.
How
do
third
parties
use
cookies,
pixels,
and
other
similar
technologies
on
Facebook?
We
sometimes
use
service
providers
[link:
https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/other]
to
help
us
provide
our
products
and
services.
For
example,
we
use
service
providers
to
help
you
buy
things
using
Facebook
on
your
mobile
phone.
As
part
of
those
services,
a
provider
may
use
a
pixel
to
collect
information
about
your
phone
so
that,
if
you
choose,
it
can
help
us
conveniently
bill
you
through
your
regular
phone
bill.
When
you
view,
click,
or
otherwise
interact
with
an
ad
or
app
on
or
off
Facebook,
our
partners
use
cookies
to
help
provide
you
with
relevant
services
and
ads.
For
example,
a
platform
partner
may
use
cookies
to
customize
your
experience
while
you’re
using
their
app.
Or,
an
advertising
partner
may
use
a
cookie
to
determine
whether
we’ve
shown
an
ad
and
how
it
performed.

Facebook
does
use
cookies
if
you
don’t
have
an
account
or
have
logged
out
of
your
account.
For
example,
we
use
cookies
to
help:
• Identify
and
disable
the
accounts
of
spammers;
• Prevent
people
who
are
underage
from
signing
up
with
a
false
birth
date;
• Recover
your
account
if
you
ever
lose
access
to
it;
• Provide
extra
security
features
like
login
notifications
and
login
approvals;
and
• Identify
public
computers
so
that
we
can
discourage
people
from
using
“Keep
me
logged
in.”
We
may
also
use
anonymized
or
aggregated
information
to
improve
our
products.
We
also
set
cookies
if
you
don’t
have
a
Facebook
account
but
have
visited
facebook.com
to
help
us
protect
Facebook
and
the
people
who
use
it
from
malicious
activity.
For
example,
these
cookies
help
us
detect
and
prevent
denial-‐of-‐service
attacks
and
the
mass
creation
of
fake
accounts.
Also,
if
you
have
cookies
on
your
browser
or
device
when
you
visit
a
site
with
a
social
plugin,
we
read
those
cookies
at
that
time.

As
our
Data
Use
Policy
indicates,
we
use
cookies
to
show
you
ads
on
and
off
Facebook.
We
do
not
use
these
cookies
to
create
a
profile
of
your
browsing
behavior
on
third-‐party
sites
to
show
you
ads.
However,
we
may
use
anonymous
or
aggregate
information
to
improve
ads
generally
and
information
we
receive
to
study,
develop
or
test
new
and
existing
products
or

How
does
Facebook
use
cookies
for
security
purposes?
We
use
tools
like
cookies
to
help
keep
Facebook
safe,
secure
and
easy
to
use.
They
support
or
enable
security
features,
like
Login
Approvals
(which
help
protect
your
account
from
unauthorized
access).
For
example,
with
Login
Approvals,
if
someone
logs
into
your
account
from
a
browser
that
you’ve
never
used
before,
we’ll
block
them
and
ask
for
more
information.
They
also
help
us
to
implement
login
notifications,
so
you
can
be
alerted
when
your
account
has
been
accessed
and
you
can
disable
active
Facebook
sessions.
These
extra
security
features
are
valuable
for
all
users
and
help
to
maintain
security
for
the
entire
site.
Besides
helping
to
keep
unauthorized
people
from
logging
into
your
account,
we
also
use
cookies
to
help
make
sure
the
people
or
machines
that
access
Facebook
don’t
violate
our
policies.
For
example,
certain
information
on
Facebook
is
Public
and
therefore
can
be
accessed
by
anyone
on
the
Internet.
These
cookies
help
us
to
detect
and
stop
people
or
machines
from
“scraping”
information
from
our
site
by
understanding
the
volume
and
frequency
of
requests.
We
also
use
these
tools
to
make
Facebook
easier
to
use,
like
when
you
mistype
one
character
of
your
username
or
password.
If
you’ve
already
logged
into
Facebook
from
the
same
browser,
we’ll
give
you
easier
options
to
correct
your
typo
and
continue
because
we
know
you’ve
successfully
logged
into
Facebook
before.
Why
does
Facebook
add
cookies
to
any
browser
that
visits
its
websites?
Cookies
are
set
to
provide,
understand,
and
improve
a
range
of
products
and
services.
These
cookies
also
help
keep
Facebook
and
the
people
who
use
Facebook
safe
and
secure.
By
understanding
visitor
habits
and
patterns,
we
can
help
detect
unusual
behavior
and
help
protect
people
from
unauthorized
activities.
