Our Service uses social media features ("Social Features") provided by companies and services such as Facebook and Twitter to enable you to share information via these channels. The Social Features are identified on our website by these companies' respective logos.

As such, we can't guarantee that we have listed every cookie you might get from a third party since a third party could change these cookies at any time as their needs change.
When you visit a page on the 3D Mential website that contains Social Features, your browser establishes a direct connection to the applicable social network's servers. The Social Features provide the social networks with the information that you have accessed on the 3D Mential website, and, if you are logged into the social network, your visit may be logged to your account on that service. For example, if you click the Facebook "Like" button, that information is transmitted from your browser directly to Facebook and stored by it. Even if you are not logged into the social network, or click on a Social Feature on the 3D Mential site, there is still a possibility that a Social Feature can transmit your IP address to the social network.
3D Mential does not control social networks services, your
profiles on those services, modify your personal settings on those
services or establish rules about how your information and personal
data will be used on those services. You and the social networks
service providers are in control of the above issues and not 3D

the applicable social media services to learn more about how they
handle and safeguard your data and information, before using any such
features made available to you on the service. For information on the
