For example, we may make available to you an integration with a platform operated by a third party (e.g., Google, Facebook, etc.), and by using your login credentials from such platform, you may be logged into some aspect of the Services (e.g., through an OAuth or similar process). Since in this situation the login credentials are processed by a third party and data is transmitted between a third party and our Services, you understand that your login credentials may be compromised, stolen, misappropriated or otherwise corrupted, either on the third party’s platform, in transit, or within the Services. You consequently assume all responsibility and risk in connection with such pass-through login processes and the use of your login credentials from other platforms, including the risks that (i) access to the Services using credentials from another platform may not work or may not be reliable, (ii) your login credentials from the other platform may be compromised, stolen or lost, and therefore your account for the Services, and/or your account for the services on the other platform, may be compromised or misappropriated and your data (both on the Services and on the other platform) may be corrupted, lost or stolen.
