LinkedIn may profile fan-page visitors and transfer their data abroad
When you visit Wire’s LinkedIn fan page, LinkedIn may collect device and cookie data, including IP addresses, track activity on its network or sites with LinkedIn plugins, and associate information with a profile for personalized content or advertising. Processing may vary by login and registration status. Wire says it has no influence over or details of LinkedIn’s processing and flags possible transfers outside the EEA, particularly to the US. To avoid profile association, it suggests logging out or disabling persistent login, deleting cookies and restarting the browser; it does not promise these steps prevent all collection. It says use of interactive fan-page functions is the visitor’s responsibility.

Google may link analytics data to a signed-in account and use it for its own purposes
The policy says Google also processes Analytics data under its own policy, potentially in usage profiles for product development and improvement, advertising effectiveness, market research, and personalized content and advertisements. If you are logged in to Google, data is directly associated with your account; Wire says to log out before activating Analytics if you do not want that association. Wire says it has no influence over Google’s further processing. Analytics itself requires consent, which may be revoked with future effect.
