The Website may contain links to other websites which are outside our control and are not covered by this Policy. If you access other websites using the links provided, the operators of those websites may collect information from you which will be used by them in accordance with their privacy policies, which may differ from ours.
The Website also provide you with the ability to share or follow information about Ford, Ford's website or the products and/or services available through it by means of a functionality (e.g. using "share this", "like" or "follow" buttons). We provide this functionality to stimulate interest in our sites and Ford and to allow you to share and follow opinions, news and recommendations with your contacts. However, you should be aware that when you share personal information on a social network, that information may be collected and made publicly available by the social network provider, including through Internet search engines. The operators of the social networks process personal data as a data controller in accordance with their own privacy policy. You should always carefully read the privacy policy of any website or social network you visit or use to share information to understand their privacy practices.
The links may be updated from time to time by the operators. We make every effort to keep the links up to date, but you can also find the privacy policy directly through the operator.
