" summary

Social plugins are simple iframes that jump from 350,000 sites to 2 million sites and serve over three billion likes daily, enabling immediate personalization (Pandora builds radio stations from profile likes). Logs from plugins are explicitly deleted within 90 days, not used for passive tracking; aggregated counts may be stored for metrics. The platform exposes a RESTful Graph API, realtime webhooks for partners, and prioritizes HTML5 for cross‑device consistency while iterating on stability and performance.
