certain​​profile​​information​​fields​​we​​provide​​you​with​ ​​​visibility​ ​settings​​​to​​select​​who​​can​​see​​this

information​​in​​your​​profile.​​If​​you​​provide​​us​with​ ​​profile​​information​​and​you​ ​​don’t​​see​​a​​visibility

setting,​​that​​information​​is​​public.​​You​​can​​change​​the​​​language​​and​ ​​​time​ ​zone​​​associated​​with

email​​notifications,​​third-party​​services,​​and​​client​​applications,​​by​​redirecting​​clicks​​or​​through

other​​means.​​We​​do​​this​​to​​help​​improve​​our​​Services,​​to​​provide​​more​​relevant​​advertising,​​and

to​​be​​able​​to​​share​​aggregate​​click​​statistics​such​ ​​as​​how​​many​times​ ​​a​​particular​​link​​was

clicked​​on.​​Links,​​Tweets,​​and​​non-public​communications​ ​​like​​Direct​Messages​ ​​shared​​on​​the

Services​​will​​be​​processed​​and​links​ ​​shortened​​to​​a​​​http://t.co​​​link.
