Device information: We collect information from and about the computers, phones, connected/smart TVs and other web-connected devices you use that integrate with the Services, and we combine this information across different devices that you use. For example, we use information collected about your use of the Services on your phone to better personalize the content (including ads ) or features that you see when you use the Service on another device, such as your laptop or tablet, or to measure whether you took an action in response to an ad that we showed you on your phone on a different device.
Information that we obtain from these devices includes:

Network and connections: information such as the name of your mobile operator or ISP, language, time zone, mobile phone number, IP address, connection speed and, in some cases, information about other devices that are nearby or on your network, so we can do things such as help you stream a video from your phone to your TV.
How to Share your data
Content that others share or reshare about you
You should consider who you choose to share with, because people who can see your activity on the Services can choose to share it with others on and off the Services, including people and businesses outside the audience that you shared with. For example, when you share a post or send a message to specific friends or accounts, they can download, screenshot or reshare that content to others across or off the Services.
How We Protect Your Information
We take measures to help protect information about you from loss, theft, misuse and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. We also enforce technical and administrative access controls to limit which of our employees have access to nonpublic personal information.
How can I manage or delete information about me
When you delete your account, we delete things that you have posted, such as your photos and
status updates, and you won’t be able to recover this information later. Information that others have shared about you isn’t part of your account and won’t be deleted.
