La Martiniquaise does not manage the data collected by Social Networks via these buttons. Users are advised to consult the data protection policy of the concerned Social Network(s) for more information about how data collected by the Social Network in question is processed and used, as well as about how Users can adjust their Social Network settings to protect their privacy. If a User does not want a Social Network to link, to that User’s Social Network, any information collected by La Martiniquaise, then the User should disconnect from the Social Network before consulting our Site.
