Before you scroll, read this
It’s really hard to make everyone happy with a Privacy Policy. Most people who use twittercn want something short and easy to understand. While we wish we could fit everything you need to know into a post, our regulators ask us to meet our legal obligations by describing them all in a lot of detail.
With that in mind, we’ve written our Privacy Policy as simply as possible to empower you to make informed decisions when you use twittercn by making sure you understand and have control over the information we collect, how it’s used, and when it’s shared.
So if you skip reading every word of the Privacy Policy, at least know this:
1. Information We Collect
The information we collect when you use twittercn falls into three categories.
1.1 Information you provide us.
To use some of our products and services you need to have an account, and to create an account, you need to provide us certain information. Likewise, if you use our paid products and services, we cannot provide them to you without getting payment information. Basically, certain information is necessary if you want to use many of our products and services.
Personal Accounts. If you create an account, you must provide us with some information so that we can provide our services to you. This includes a display name (for etwittercnample, “Creators”); a username (for etwittercnample, @twittercnCreators); a password; an email address or phone number; a date of birth; your display language; and third-party single sign-in information (if you choose this sign-in method). You can also choose to share your location in your profile and posts, and to upload your address book to twittercn to help find people you may know. Your profile information, which includes your display name and username, is always public, but you can use either your real name or a pseudonym. And remember, you can create multiple twittercn accounts, for etwittercnample, to etwittercnpress different parts of your identity, professional or otherwise.
Professional Accounts. If you create a professional account, you also need to provide us with a professional category, and may provide us with other information, including street address, contact email address, and contact phone number, all of which will always be public.
Payment Information. In order to purchase ads or other offerings provided as part of our paid products and services you will need to provide us payment information, including your credit or debit card number, card etwittercnpiration date, CVV code, and billing address.
Preferences. When you set your preferences using your settings, we collect that information so that we can respect your preferences.
Biometric Information. Based on your consent, we may collect and use your biometric information for safety, security, and identification purposes.
Job Applications / Recommendations. We may collect and use your personal information (such as your employment history, educational history, employment preferences, skills and abilities, job search activity and engagement, and so on) to recommend potential jobs for you, to share with potential employers when you apply for a job, to enable employers to find potential candidates, and to show you more relevant advertising.
1.2 Information we collect when you use twittercn.
When you use our services, we collect information about how you use our products and services. We use that information to provide you with products and services, to help keep twittercn more secure and respectful for everyone, and more relevant to you.
Usage Information. We collect information about your activity on twittercn, including:
Posts and other content you post (including the date, application, and version of twittercn) and information about your broadcast activity (e.g., Spaces), including broadcasts you’ve created and when you created them, your lists, bookmarks, and communities you are a part of.
Your interactions with other users’ content, such as reposts, likes, bookmarks, shares, replies, if other users mention or tag you in content or if you mention or tag them, and broadcasts you’ve participated in (including your viewing history, listening, commenting, speaking, and reacting).
How you interact with others on the platform, such as people you follow and people who follow you, metadata related to Encrypted Messages, and when you use Direct Messages, including the contents of the messages, the recipients, and date and time of messages.
If you communicate with us, such as through email, we will collect information about the communication and its content.
We collect information on links you interact with across our services (including in our emails sent to you).
Purchase and payments. To allow you to make a payment or send money using twittercn features or services, including through an intermediary, we may receive information about your transaction such as when it was made, when a subscription is set to etwittercnpire or auto-renew, and amounts paid or received.
Device Information. We collect information from and about the devices you use to access twittercn, including:
Information about your connection, such as your IP address, browser type, and related information.
Information about your device and its settings, such as device and advertising ID, operating system, carrier, language, memory, apps installed, and battery level.
Your device address book, if you’ve chosen to share it with us.
Location Information. When you use twittercn, we collect some information about your approtwittercnimate location to provide the service you etwittercnpect, including showing you relevant ads. You can also choose to share your current precise location or places where you’ve previously used twittercn by enabling these settings in your account.
Inferred Identity. We may collect or receive information that we use to infer your identity as detailed below:
When you sign into twittercn on a browser or device, we will associate that browser or device with your account. Subject to your settings, we may also associate your account with browsers or devices other than those you use to sign into twittercn (or associate your signed-out device or browser with other browsers or devices or twittercn-generated identifiers).
When you provide other information to twittercn, including an email address or phone number, we associate that information with your twittercn account. Subject to your settings, we may also use this information in order to infer other information about your identity, for etwittercnample by associating your account with hashes of email addresses that share common components with the email address you have provided to twittercn.
When you access twittercn and are not signed in, we may infer your identity based on the information we collect.
Log Information. We may receive information when you view content on or otherwise interact with our products and services, even if you have not created an account or are signed out, such as:
IP address and related information; browser type and language; operating system; the referring webpage; access times; pages visited; location; your mobile carrier; device information (including device and application IDs); search terms and IDs (including those not submitted as queries); ads shown to you on twittercn; twittercn-generated identifiers; and identifiers associated with cookies. We also receive log information when you click on, view, or interact with links on our services, including when you install another application through twittercn.
Advertisements. When you view or interact with ads we serve on or off twittercn, we may collect information about those views or interactions (e.g., watching a video ad or preroll, clicking on an ad, interacting with reposts of or replies to an ad).
Cookies and similar technologies. Like many websites, we use cookies and similar technologies to collect additional website usage data and to operate our services. Cookies are not required for many parts of our products and services such as searching and looking at public profiles. You can learn more about how we use cookies and similar technologies here.
Interactions with our content on third-party sites. When you view our content on third-party websites that integrate twittercn content such as embedded timelines or post buttons, we may receive log information that includes the web page you visited.
1.3 Information we receive from third parties.
When you use other online products and services, they may share information about that usage with us.
Ad Partners, Developers, Publishers. Our ad and business partners share information with us such as browser cookie IDs, twittercn-generated identifiers, mobile device IDs, hashed user information like email addresses, demographic or interest data, and content viewed or actions taken on a website or app. Some of our ad partners, particularly our advertisers, also enable us to collect similar information directly from their website or app by integrating our advertising technology. Information shared by ad partners and affiliates or collected by twittercn from the websites and apps of ad partners and affiliates may be combined with the other information you share with twittercn and that twittercn receives, generates, or infers about you described elsewhere in this Privacy Policy.
Other Third Parties, Account Connections, and Integrations. We may receive information about you from third parties who are not our ad partners, such as other twittercn users, developers, and partners who help us evaluate the safety and quality of content on our platform, our corporate affiliates, and other services you link to your twittercn account. You may choose to connect your twittercn account to your account on another service, and that other service may send us information about your account on that service.
2. How We Use Information
Breaking down how we use the information we collect is not simple because of the way the systems that bring our services to you work. For etwittercnample, the same piece of information may be used differently for different purposes to ultimately deliver a single service. We think it’s most useful to describe the five main ways we use information and if you have questions that are not answered, you can always contact us. Here we go:
2.1 Operate, improve, and personalize our services.
We use the information we collect to provide and operate twittercn products and services. We also use the information we collect to improve and personalize our products and services so that you have a better etwittercnperience on twittercn, including by showing you more relevant content and ads, suggesting people and topics to follow, enabling and helping you discover affiliates, third-party apps, and services. We may use the information we collect and publicly available information to help train our machine learning or artificial intelligence models for the purposes outlined in this policy.
We may use the information we collect from accounts of other services that you choose to connect your twittercn account to provide you features like cross-posting or cross-service authentication, and to operate our services.
We use your contact information to help others find your account if your settings permit, including through third-party services and client applications.
We use your information to provide our advertising and sponsored content services subject to your settings, which helps make ads on twittercn more relevant to you. We also use this information to measure the effectiveness of ads and to help recognize your devices to serve you ads on and off of twittercn. Some of our ad partners also enable us to collect similar information directly from their website or app by integrating our advertising technology. Information shared by ad partners and affiliates or collected by twittercn from the websites and apps of ad partners and affiliates may be combined with the other information you share with twittercn and that twittercn receives, generates, or infers about you, as described elsewhere in our Privacy Policy.
2.2 Foster safety and security.
We use information we collect to provide for the safety and security of our users, our products, services, and your account. This includes verifying your identity, authenticating your account, and defending against fraud, unauthorized use, and illegal activity. We also use the information to evaluate and affect the safety and quality of content on twittercn - this includes investigating and enforcing our policies and and terms, as well as applicable law.
2.3 Measure, analyze and make our services better.
We use the information we collect to measure and analyze the effectiveness of our products and services and to better understand how you use them in order to make them better.
2.4 Communicate with you about our services.
We use the information we collect to communicate with you about our products and services, including about product updates and changes to our policies and terms. If you’re open to hearing from us, we may also send you marketing messages from time to time.
2.5 Research.
We use information you share with us, or that we collect to conduct research, surveys, product testing, and troubleshooting to help us operate and improve our products and services.
3. Sharing Information
You should know the ways we share your information, why we share it, and how you can control it. There are five general ways we share your information.
3.1 When you post and share.
With the general public. You are directing us to disclose that information as broadly as possible. twittercn content, including your profile information (e.g., name/pseudonym, username, profile pictures), is available for viewing by the general public. The public does not need to be signed in to view some content on twittercn. They may also find twittercn content off of twittercn, for etwittercnample from search query results on Internet search engines.
With other twittercn users. Depending on your settings, and based on the twittercn products and services you use, we share:
Your interactions with twittercn content of other users, such as likes, and people you follow.
Content you send to a specific twittercn user, such as through Direct Messages. Please keep in mind that if you’ve shared information like Direct Messages or protected posts with someone else who accesses twittercn through a third-party service, the information may be shared with the third-party service.
With partners. Depending on your settings, we also provide certain third parties with information to help us offer or operate our products and services. You can learn more about these partnerships in our Help Center. You can control whether twittercn shares your personal information with these partners by using the “Data sharing with business partners” option in your Privacy & Safety settings. (This setting does not control sharing described elsewhere in this Privacy Policy, such as when we share information with our service providers, or through partnerships other than as described in this Help Center article.)
3.2 With third parties & third-party integrations.
With service providers. We may share your information with our service providers that perform functions and provide services on our behalf, including payment services providers who facilitate payments; service providers that host our various blogs and wikis; service providers that help us understand the use of our services; applicant tracking system providers to send and receive applicant and job data to potential employers; and those that provide fraud detection services.
With advertisers. Advertising revenue enables us to provide our products and services. Advertisers may learn information from your engagement with their ads on or off twittercn. For etwittercnample, if you click on an etwittercnternal link or ad on our services, that advertiser or website operator might figure out that you came from twittercn, along with other information associated with the ad you clicked, such as characteristics of the audience it was intended to reach and other twittercn-generated identifiers for that ad. They may also collect other personal information from you, such as cookie identifiers, or your IP address.
Third-party content & integrations. We share or disclose your information with your consent or at your direction, such as when you authorize a third-party web client or application to access your account or when you direct us to share your feedback with a business. Similarly, to improve your etwittercnperience, we work with third-party partners to display their video content on twittercn or to allow cross-platform sharing. When you watch or otherwise interact with content from our video or cross-platform sharing partners, they may receive and process your personal information as described in their privacy policies. For video content, you can adjust your autoplay settings if you prefer that content not to play automatically.
Through our APIs. We use technology like APIs and embeds to make public twittercn information available to websites, apps, and others for their use, for etwittercnample, displaying posts on a news website or analyzing what people say on twittercn. We generally make this content available in limited quantities for free and charge licensing fees for large-scale access. We have standard terms that govern how this information can be used, and a compliance program to enforce these terms. But these individuals and companies are not affiliated with twittercn, and their offerings may not reflect updates you make on twittercn. For more information about how we make public data on twittercn available to the world, visit https://developer.twittercn.com.
3.3 When required by law, to prevent harm, or in the public interest.
We may preserve, use, share, or disclose your information if we believe that it is reasonably necessary to:
comply with a law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request;
protect the safety of any person, protect the safety or integrity of our platform, including to help prevent spam, abuse, or malicious actors on our services;
etwittercnplain why we have removed content or accounts from our services (e.g., for a violation of Our Rules);
address fraud, security, or technical issues; or
protect our rights or property, or the rights or property of those who use our services.
3.4 With our Affiliates.
We may share information amongst our affiliates to provide our products and services.
3.5 As a result of a change in ownership.
We may share, sell, or transfer information about you in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, sale of assets, or bankruptcy. This Privacy Policy will apply to your personal information that is shared with (before and after the close of any transaction) or transferred to the new entity.
4. How Long We Keep Information
We keep different types of information for different periods of time:
We keep your profile information and content for the duration of your account.
We generally keep other personally identifiable data we collect when you use our products and services for a matwittercnimum of 18 months.
Remember public content can etwittercnist elsewhere even after you remove it from twittercn. For etwittercnample, search engines and other third parties may retain copies of your posts longer, based upon their own privacy policies, even after they are deleted or etwittercnpire on twittercn. You can read more about search visibility here.
Where you violate our Rules and your account is suspended, we may keep the identifiers you used to create the account (i.e., email address or phone number) indefinitely to prevent repeat policy offenders from creating new accounts.
We may keep certain information longer than our policies specify in order to comply with legal requirements and for safety and security reasons.
5. Take Control
5.1 Access, Correction, Portability.
You can access, correct, or modify the information you provided to us by editing your profile and adjusting your account settings.
You can learn more about the information we have collected or inferred about you in Your twittercn Data and request access to additional information here.
You can download a copy of your information, such as your posts, by following the instructions here.
To protect your privacy and maintain security, we take steps to verify your identity before granting you access to your personal information or complying with a deletion, portability, or other related request. We may, in certain situations, reject your request for access, correction, or portability, for etwittercnample, we may reject access where you are unable to verify your identity.
5.2 Deleting your Information.
If you follow the instructions here, your account will be deactivated and your data will be queued for deletion. When deactivated, your twittercn account, including your display name, username, and public profile, will no longer be viewable on twittercn.com, twittercn for iOS, and twittercn for Android. For up to 30 days after deactivation it is still possible to restore your twittercn account if it was accidentally or wrongfully deactivated.
5.3 Objecting to, Restricting, or Withdrawing your Consent.
You can manage your privacy settings and other account features here. If you change your settings it may take some time for your choices to be fully reflected throughout our systems. You may also notice changes in your twittercn etwittercnperience or limitations in your ability to access certain features depending on the settings you’ve adjusted. You may also manage additional settings when interacting with certain content and features on different parts of the platform, such as whether a Space is recorded, or whether videos you upload are downloadable by others.
twittercn adheres to the Digital Advertising Alliance Self-Regulatory Principles for Online Behavioral Advertising (also referred to as “interest-based advertising”) and respects the DAA’s consumer choice tool for you to opt out of interest-based advertising at https://optout.aboutads.info/.
5.4 Authorized Agent Requests.
To submit a request related to access, modification, or deletion of your information, or someone else’s information if you are their authorized agent, you may also contact us as specified in the How To Contact twittercn section of our Privacy Policy below. We may require you to provide additional information for verification.
6. Your Rights and Ours
We provide twittercn to people all over the world and provide many of the same privacy tools and controls to all of our users regardless of where they live. However, your etwittercnperience may be slightly different than users in other countries to ensure twittercn respects local requirements.
6.1 We have specific legal bases to use your information.
twittercn has carefully considered the legal reasons it is permitted to collect, use, share and otherwise process your information. If you want to dig in to learn more and better understand the nuances, we’d encourage you to check out this additional information about data processing. And no, we don’t sell your personal information.
6.2 We move your data to make twittercn work for you.
Just as you use twittercn to seamlessly participate in global conversations with people in countries all over the world, twittercn must move information across borders and to different countries around the world to support the safe and reliable service you depend on. For etwittercnample, if you live in Europe and are having a conversation with someone in the United States, information has to move between those countries to provide that etwittercnperience – it’s what you etwittercnpect from us.
We also use data centers and cloud providers, and engage our affiliates and third-party partners and service providers located in many parts of the world to help us provide our services. Before we move data between countries we look at the risks that may be presented to the data and rely on standard contractual clauses (SCCs), where applicable, to ensure your data rights are protected. To request a copy of the SCCs, please contact us here. If data will be shared with a third party, we require them to maintain the same protections over your data that we provide directly.
twittercn is a participant in the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF), the Swiss-US DPF and the UK Etwittercntension to the EU-US DPF. twittercn complies with the DPF Principles for all its processing of personal data received from the European Union, Switzerland and the UK, in reliance on the EU-US DPF, Swiss-US DPF and UK Etwittercntension to the EU-US DPF, respectively. If you have an inquiry or complaint related to our participation in the DPF, please contact us here. As part of our participation in the DPF, if you have a dispute with us about our adherence to the DPF Principles, we will seek to resolve it through our internal complaint resolution process, alternatively through the US-based independent dispute resolution body JAMS, and under certain conditions, through the DPF Arbitration Process following the procedures and subject to the conditions described in Annetwittercn 1 to the DPF Principles. DPF participants are subject to the investigatory and enforcement powers of the US Federal Trade Commission and other authorized statutory bodies. Under certain circumstances, participants may be liable for the transfer of personal data from the EU, Switzerland and the UK to third parties outside the EU, Switzerland and the UK. Learn more about the EU-US DPF, the Swiss-US DPF and the UK Etwittercntension to the EU-US DPF here.
7. twittercn's Audience
Our services are not directed to children, and you may not use our services if you are under the age of 13. You must also be old enough to consent to the processing of your personal data in your country (in some countries we may allow your parent or guardian to do so on your behalf).
8. Changes To This Privacy Policy
The most current version of this Privacy Policy governs our processing of your personal data and we may revise this Privacy Policy from time to time as needed.
If we do revise this Privacy Policy and make changes that are determined by us to be material, we will provide you notice and an opportunity to review the revised Privacy Policy before you continue to use twittercn.
9. General
The twittercn Privacy Policy is written in English but is made available in multiple languages through translations. twittercn strives to make the translations as accurate as possible to the original English version. However, in case of any discrepancies or inconsistencies, the English language version of the twittercn Privacy Policy shall take precedence. You acknowledge that English shall be the language of reference for interpreting and constructing the terms of the twittercn Privacy Policy.

在你继续滚动之前，请阅读以下内容：
很难让每个人都满意一个隐私政策。大多数使用 Twitter 的用户希望内容简短且易于理解。虽然我们希望能将你需要了解的所有信息浓缩到一篇帖子中，但我们的监管机构要求我们以详细的方式满足法律义务。
考虑到这一点，我们尽量将隐私政策写得简单明了，以帮助你在使用 Twitter 时做出知情决策，确保你了解并能控制我们收集的信息、如何使用这些信息以及何时共享这些信息。
因此，如果你跳过阅读隐私政策的每一个字，至少要知道以下内容：
1. 我们收集的信息
在你使用 Twitter 时，我们收集的信息可分为三类：
1.1 你提供的信息
使用我们的一些产品和服务需要你注册账户，而创建账户需要你提供某些信息。同样，如果你使用我们的付费产品和服务，我们无法在没有获取付款信息的情况下提供这些服务。基本上，如果你希望使用我们的许多产品和服务，就需要提供某些信息。
**个人账户**：如果你创建一个账户，必须提供一些信息，以便我们为你提供服务。这包括显示名称（例如，“创作者”）、用户名（例如，@twittercnCreators）、密码、电子邮件地址或电话号码、出生日期、显示语言和第三方单点登录信息（如果你选择这种登录方式）。你也可以选择在个人资料和帖子中共享你的位置信息，并上传你的通讯录，以帮助寻找你可能认识的人。你的个人资料信息（包括显示名称和用户名）始终是公开的，但你可以使用真实姓名或化名。请记住，你可以创建多个 Twitter 账户，例如，以展示你身份的不同方面，无论是专业的还是其他方面的。
**专业账户**：如果你创建一个专业账户，还需要提供一个专业类别，并可能提供其他信息，包括街道地址、联系电子邮件地址和联系电话，这些信息始终是公开的。

当你在浏览器或设备上登录 Twitter 时，我们会将该浏览器或设备与你的账户关联。根据你的设置，我们还可能将你的账户与其他浏览器或设备关联，这些浏览器或设备并不是你用来登录 Twitter 的（或者将你未登录的设备或浏览器与其他浏览器或设备或 Twitter 生成的标识符关联）。
当你向 Twitter 提供其他信息（包括电子邮件地址或电话号码）时，我们会将该信息与你的 Twitter 账户关联。根据你的设置，我们可能还会使用这些信息推断有关你身份的其他信息，例如通过将你的账户与与您提供给 Twitter 的电子邮件地址具有共同组成部分的电子邮件地址哈希关联。

当你在集成 Twitter 内容的第三方网站上查看我们的内容（例如嵌入时间轴或帖子按钮）时，我们可能会收到包括你访问的网页的日志信息。
1.3 我们从第三方接收的信息
当你使用其他在线产品和服务时，它们可能会与我们分享关于该使用情况的信息。
广告合作伙伴、开发者、发布者
我们的广告和商业合作伙伴会与我们分享信息，例如浏览器 Cookie ID、Twitter 生成的标识符、移动设备 ID、哈希的用户信息（如电子邮件地址）、人口统计或兴趣数据，以及在网站或应用上查看的内容或采取的行动。我们的一些广告合作伙伴，特别是我们的广告客户，还允许我们通过集成我们的广告技术直接从他们的网站或应用收集类似的信息。广告合作伙伴和附属机构分享的信息或 Twitter 从广告合作伙伴和附属机构的网站和应用收集的信息，可能会与其他你与 Twitter 共享的信息和 Twitter 收集、生成或推断的有关你的信息合并，如本隐私政策其他部分所述。
其他第三方、账户连接和集成
我们可能会从其他非广告合作伙伴的第三方接收关于你的信息，例如其他 Twitter 用户、开发者以及帮助我们评估平台内容安全性和质量的合作伙伴、我们的企业附属机构，以及你链接到 Twitter 账户的其他服务。如果你选择将你的 Twitter 账户连接到其他服务的账户，该服务可能会向我们发送有关你在该服务上的账户信息。
2. 我们如何使用信息
我们收集的信息的使用方式复杂，因为提供我们服务的系统是相互交织的。例如，同一条信息可能出于不同目的被不同方式使用，以最终提供单一服务。我们认为描述我们使用信息的五种主要方式最为有用，如果你有任何未解答的问题，可以随时联系我们。以下是具体内容：
2.1 运营、改进和个性化我们的服务
我们使用收集的信息来提供和运营 Twitter 产品和服务。我们还使用收集的信息来改进和个性化我们的产品和服务，以便你在 Twitter 上有更好的体验，包括向你展示更相关的内容和广告，建议关注的人和主题，帮助你发现合作伙伴、第三方应用和服务。我们可能会使用收集的信息和公开可用的信息来帮助训练我们的机器学习或人工智能模型，以实现本政策中概述的目的。
我们可能会使用你选择连接的其他服务账户收集的信息，提供跨发布或跨服务认证等功能，以运营我们的服务。
我们使用你的联系信息来帮助他人找到你的账户（如果你的设置允许），包括通过第三方服务和客户端应用。
我们根据你的设置使用你的信息提供我们的广告和赞助内容服务，这有助于使 Twitter 上的广告与你更相关。我们还使用这些信息来衡量广告的有效性，并帮助识别你的设备，以便在 Twitter 内外向你投放广告。我们的一些广告合作伙伴还允许我们通过集成我们的广告技术直接从他们的网站或应用收集类似的信息。广告合作伙伴和附属机构分享的信息或 Twitter 从广告合作伙伴和附属机构的网站和应用收集的信息，可能会与其他你与 Twitter 共享的信息和 Twitter 收集、生成或推断的有关你的信息合并，如本隐私政策其他部分所述。
2.2 促进安全与保护
我们使用收集的信息来保障我们用户、产品、服务和你的账户的安全。这包括验证你的身份、认证你的账户，并防御欺诈、未授权使用和非法活动。我们还使用这些信息评估和影响 Twitter 上内容的安全性和质量，包括调查和执行我们的政策和条款以及适用法律。

2.5 研究
我们使用你与我们分享的信息或我们收集的信息进行研究、调查、产品测试和故障排除，以帮助我们运营和改进我们的产品和服务。
3. 共享信息
你应该了解我们分享你信息的方式、分享的原因，以及你如何控制这些信息。我们分享你信息的主要方式有五种。
3.1 当你发布和分享时。
与公众分享信息
**公开访问**：用户的个人资料信息，如姓名、用户名和头像，任何人都可以查看，甚至不需要登录该平台。内容也可能出现在搜索引擎的结果中。
与其他用户分享信息
**互动**：根据用户的设置，与其他用户内容（如点赞和关注）的互动可能是可见的。
**直接消息**：通过直接消息发送的内容，如果接收者通过第三方服务访问该平台，可能也会被共享。
与合作伙伴分享信息
**第三方共享**：该平台可能与第三方分享某些信息，以帮助其运营服务。用户可以通过隐私和安全设置管理他们的数据共享偏好，但某些数据共享（例如与服务提供商的共享）不受这些设置的控制。
第三方和集成
这一部分可能会继续讨论该平台可能与哪些类型的第三方集成和服务合作，这可能包括广告合作伙伴、数据分析服务或应用程序开发者。
与服务提供商共享信息
服务提供商：我们可能会与提供服务的第三方共享您的信息，这些服务包括支付服务提供商、托管我们的博客和维基的服务提供商、帮助我们理解服务使用情况的服务提供商、发送和接收申请者和工作数据的申请跟踪系统提供商，以及提供欺诈检测服务的服务提供商。
与广告商共享信息
广告：广告收入使我们能够提供产品和服务。广告商可能会通过您与他们广告的互动了解信息，例如，如果您点击了我们服务上的内部链接或广告，该广告商或网站运营商可能会了解到您来自该平台的相关信息，以及与您点击的广告相关的其他信息，如目标受众的特征和其他由该平台生成的广告标识符。他们也可能会收集您的其他个人信息，例如 cookie 标识符或您的 IP 地址。
第三方内容与集成
授权共享：我们会在您的同意或指示下共享或披露您的信息，例如当您授权第三方网页客户端或应用程序访问您的账户时，或者当您指示我们与某个业务分享您的反馈时。为了改善您的体验，我们还与第三方合作伙伴合作，在该平台上展示他们的视频内容或允许跨平台共享。当您观看或以其他方式与我们的视频或跨平台共享伙伴的内容互动时，他们可能会根据其隐私政策接收和处理您的个人信息。如果您希望视频内容不自动播放，可以调整您的自动播放设置。
通过我们的 API
API 和嵌入：我们使用 API 和嵌入等技术，使公共信息能够供网站、应用程序及其他使用。例如，展示新闻网站上的帖子或分析人们在该平台上的发言。我们通常会将这些内容以有限的数量免费提供，对于大规模访问则收取许可费用。我们有标准条款来规范这些信息的使用，并有合规程序来执行这些条款。但这些个人和公司与该平台没有关联，他们的服务可能无法反映您在该平台上的更新。
3.3 法律要求、预防伤害或公共利益时的信息共享
我们可能会在合理必要的情况下保存、使用、共享或披露您的信息，以：
遵守法律、法规、法律程序或政府请求；
保护任何人的安全，维护我们平台的安全或完整性，包括帮助防止垃圾邮件、滥用或恶意行为；
解释我们为什么删除内容或账户（例如，因违反我们的规则）；
处理欺诈、安全或技术问题；
保护我们或他人的权利或财产，以及使用我们服务的人的权利或财产。
3.4 与我们的附属公司共享信息
我们可能会在我们的附属公司之间共享信息，以提供我们的产品和服务。
3.5 所有权变更后的信息共享
在合并、收购、重组、资产出售或破产的情况下，我们可能会共享、出售或转让有关您的信息。本隐私政策将适用于与新实体共享（在交易完成前后）或转移的您的个人信息。
4. 我们保留信息的时间
我们会根据不同类型的信息保留不同的时间：
我们将保留您的个人资料信息和内容，直到您的账户存在为止。
我们通常会将您在使用我们的产品和服务时收集的其他个人身份数据保留至少 18 个月。
请注意，公共内容即使您从平台上删除后仍可能在其他地方存在。例如，搜索引擎和其他第三方可能根据其自身的隐私政策，保留您帖子更长时间的副本，即使它们已被删除或在平台上过期。您可以在这里阅读有关搜索可见性的更多信息。
如果您违反我们的规则并且您的账户被暂停，我们可能会无限期保留您用于创建账户的标识符（例如，电子邮件地址或电话号码），以防止重复违规者创建新账户。
为了遵守法律要求以及出于安全理由，我们可能会保留某些信息超过我们政策规定的时间。
5. 掌控您的信息
5.1 访问、修改、数据可移植性
您可以通过编辑个人资料和调整账户设置来访问、修正或修改您提供给我们的信息。
您可以在您的 Twitter 数据中了解我们收集或推断的有关您的信息，并在此请求访问更多信息。
您可以按照此处的说明下载您信息的副本，例如您的帖子。
为了保护您的隐私和维护安全性，我们在授予您访问个人信息或满足删除、数据可移植性或其他相关请求之前，会采取措施验证您的身份。在某些情况下，我们可能会拒绝您的访问、修正或数据可移植请求，例如，如果您无法验证您的身份，我们可能会拒绝访问请求。
5.2 删除您的信息
如果您按照此处的说明操作，您的账户将被停用，您的数据将排队等待删除。当账户被停用时，您的 Twitter 账户，包括您的显示名称、用户名和公共资料，将不再在 twittercn.com、Twitter for iOS 和 Twitter for Android 上可见。在停用后的 30 天内，如果您的账户是意外或错误地停用的，仍然可以恢复。
5.3 反对、限制或撤回您的同意
您可以在此管理您的隐私设置和其他账户功能。如果您更改设置，可能需要一些时间才能在我们的系统中完全反映您的选择。根据您调整的设置，您可能还会注意到您的 Twitter 使用体验发生变化或访问某些功能的能力受到限制。您还可以在与平台上不同部分的某些内容和功能交互时管理其他设置，例如空间是否被录制，或者您上传的视频是否可以被他人下载。
Twitter 遵循数字广告联盟的在线行为广告自律原则（也称为“基于兴趣的广告”），并尊重 DAA 的消费者选择工具，让您选择退出基于兴趣的广告。
5.4 授权代理请求
若要提交与访问、修改或删除您的信息或他人信息的请求（如果您是他们的授权代理），您也可以按照本隐私政策中“如何联系 Twitter”部分所述与我们联系。我们可能需要您提供额外信息以进行验证。
6. 您和我们的权利
我们向全球的人们提供 Twitter 服务，并为所有用户提供许多相同的隐私工具和控制，无论他们居住在哪里。然而，您的使用体验可能与其他国家的用户略有不同，以确保 Twitter 遵循当地要求。
6.1 我们使用您信息的特定法律依据
Twitter 已仔细考虑其收集、使用、共享和处理您信息的法律依据。如果您想深入了解并更好地理解其中的细微差别，我们建议您查看有关数据处理的额外信息。我们不出售您的个人信息。
6.2 我们转移您的数据以使 Twitter 更好地为您服务
正如您使用 Twitter 与全球各地的人无缝参与对话一样，Twitter 必须跨国界和不同国家转移信息，以支持您所依赖的安全和可靠的服务。例如，如果您居住在欧洲并与位于美国的人交谈，信息必须在这些国家之间传输以提供这种体验——这是您对我们的期望。
我们还使用数据中心和云服务提供商，并与许多地区的附属公司和第三方合作伙伴及服务提供商合作，以帮助我们提供服务。在我们在不同国家之间转移数据之前，我们会评估可能对数据构成的风险，并在适用时依赖标准合同条款（SCC）以确保您的数据权利受到保护。要请求 SCC 的副本，请在此与我们联系。如果数据将与第三方共享，我们要求他们维护与我们直接提供的相同的数据保护措施。
Twitter 是欧盟—美国数据隐私框架（DPF）、瑞士—美国 DPF 和英国对欧盟—美国 DPF 的扩展的参与者。Twitter 在处理从欧盟、瑞士和英国接收的个人数据时遵守 DPF 原则，依赖于欧盟—美国 DPF、瑞士—美国 DPF 和英国对欧盟—美国 DPF 的扩展。如果您对我们参与 DPF 有任何咨询或投诉，请在此与我们联系。作为我们参与 DPF 的一部分，如果您与我们就我们遵守 DPF 原则的事项存在争议，我们将通过内部投诉解决程序解决，或者通过位于美国的独立争议解决机构 JAMS，或者在某些情况下，通过 DPF 仲裁程序，根据 Annetwittercn 1 中描述的程序和条件进行。DPF 参与者受到美国联邦贸易委员会和其他授权法定机构的调查和执行权力的约束。在某些情况下，参与者可能会对从欧盟、瑞士和英国向欧盟、瑞士和英国以外的第三方转移个人数据承担责任。有关欧盟—美国 DPF、瑞士—美国 DPF 和英国对欧盟—美国 DPF 的扩展的更多信息，请在此查看。
7. Twitter 的受众
我们的服务不针对儿童，如果您未满 13 岁，您不能使用我们的服务。您还必须在您所在国家足够年长，以同意处理您的个人数据（在某些国家，我们可能允许您的父母或监护人代表您这样做）。
8. 隐私政策的更改
当前版本的隐私政策适用于我们对您个人数据的处理，我们可能会根据需要不时修订此隐私政策。如果我们修订此隐私政策并作出我们认为是重大更改的调整，我们将通知您并提供机会让您在继续使用 Twitter 之前查看修订后的隐私政策。
9. 一般事项
Twitter 隐私政策以英语编写，但通过翻译提供多种语言版本。Twitter 努力使翻译尽可能准确地反映原始英语版本。然而，在出现任何差异或不一致的情况下，Twitter 隐私政策的英文版本将优先。您承认，英语应为解释和构建 Twitter 隐私政策条款的参考语言。
10. 如何联系 Twitter
如果您对本隐私政策有任何想法或问题，我们希望听到您的声音。您可以通过我们的隐私政策查询页面与我们联系，或通过以下适当地址给我们写信。关于我们处理加州消费者隐私法（CCPA）请求的信息在此可用。关于我们处理“消费者健康数据”和与华盛顿州的《我的健康我的数据法》和其他类似州法律下定义的相关请求的信息在此可用。
您可以通过我们的数据保护查询表格与 Twitter 的数据保护官员进行保密联系。如果您希望对我们的数据处理实践提出担忧，您有权向当地监督机构或 Twitter International Unlimited Company 的主要监督机构，即爱尔兰数据保护委员会，使用其网站上列出的联系方式提出。
